Acrylic awning fabric (standard)
The proven acrylic awning fabric is made from 100% solution-dyed branded acrylic fabric. Unlike conventional yarn dyeing, the colour pigments are incorporated during fibre production. This supports a high level of colour and light fastness and helps maintain brilliant colours for a long time. In addition, the acrylic fabric is tear-resistant and, thanks to a special protective impregnation, water- and dirt-repellent. A reliable solution for outdoor use.
- Resistance to water penetration: 300–370 mm water column

- 100% acrylic, 285–300 g/m²

Acryl ProNature
The acrylic fabric features a photocatalytically active coating. Under suitable conditions, this coating can help break down certain air pollutants on the surface of the fabric. In this way, Acryl ProNature combines the properties of a parasol fabric with an additional functional coating.

Plus X Award for Big Ben Freestyle
The Big Ben Freestyle was awarded the Plus X Award 2018/2019 in the categories High Quality, Design and Functionality.
The Plus X Award is the innovation prize for brand quality. A panel of judges, made up of experts representing different sectors, awards the quality seals for the innovation prize: Innovation, Design, High Quality, Operating Comfort, Functionality, Ergonomics and Ecology. The approach of the Plus X Award is unique. Compared to other competitions, which consider themselves mostly design awards, the Plus X Award takes a nuanced approach with its seven quality seals. The Plus X Award quality seals are thus not only a benchmark for the best products, but also an unmistakable sign of brand quality.
