Buyer guide

PU coating versus PVC lamination for shelter fabric

Compare the offered construction using finished weight, folding, seam process, water resistance and the requirements of your destination market.

Compare finished materials

Start with the required panel and construction. For a packable flysheet, check finished weight, flexibility and packed volume. For a canopy or cover, check coating surface durability, folding and the way panels will be joined. Ask for the actual substrate, coating side and finish in both options.

Check the proposed seam process

Tell the supplier how your factory intends to cut, sew, tape or weld the material. Confirm compatibility on a representative trial of the offered construction. Check the seam after folding and handling under the conditions in your project brief.

Shortlist two catalog references

PT1/BUDO6E lists a transparent PU coating on polyester taffeta. PP19/ROEO6C lists PVC lamination on 240T polyester pongee. Compare weight, usable width, fold behaviour and the test report for each offered sample. Share any chemical or flame-performance requirements for the destination market before approval.

What to put in the quote request

Provide the end use, panel, required test methods, colour, target weight and usable width, quantity, preferred assembly process and delivery date. Ask the supplier to list any field that remains open.
