What is Textilene

Textilene is an extremely durable solar screen, patio screen or patio furniture fabric made of tightly woven polyester. 

Each strand of the polyester is coated with poly-vinyl chloride (PVC) and heat set. This process makes Textilene specifically suited for outdoor use – and protects the screens from abrasions, fading, and sun damage. 

Biocides are also included in the manufacture of Textilene, reducing the risk of mold or mildew growth. The specially formulated PVC coating also blocks heat transfer – thus keeping heat from passing through it.
