Whether on your patio, balcony or in the garden – the equally individual and versatile outdoor living sun shading solutions from WAREMA offer optimal sun shading, visual privacy and weather protection for your personal outdoor oasis. Check out these tips and tools to make your outdoor living season even more carefree and comfortable.
Feel on holiday at home: the sleek slat roof is a true design highlight in any outdoor area, creating a protected space for enjoying shared moments outside with your family or friends. Flexibly control the amount of light and shade with the tiltable and movable slats to enjoy a good dose of sun during the day and cosy up as the sun starts to set.
Once the weather starts to heat up, balconies and patios transform into new areas of living space. The WAREMA Perea pergola awning and the articulated arm and Terrea cassette awning provide the ideal amount of shading and a special visual touch to stylishly round off your personal oasis. Whether subtly integrated or making a bold statement with coloured fabric, awnings can be designed however you would like and offer protection against UV radiation as well as wind and weather on cooler days if fitted with rainproof slats.
For a touch of the South Sea in your very own outdoor area – featuring a modern, feather-light look, the Sonea sun rail provides large-area, flexible shading for your balcony, patio or garden, available either free-standing or with a practical wall connection. Available in a number of various shapes, colours and sizes, the design object will quickly draw the attention of onlookers and is the ideal companion for summer parties or BBQ evenings under the sun.
The quality of the shading depends heavily on the type and the colour saturation of the fabric. An awning fabric’s sun protection factor is measured in UPF (ultraviolet protection factor). This is comparable to the sun protection factor of sun creams and specifies how much longer a person can safely spend in the sun depending on their skin type. With a UPF of 30, this time can be multiplied by 30 to about 300 minutes, or five hours. People with sensitive skin should look at the UPF values for the fabrics in the collection.
Picking your ideal awning model from hundreds of designs is not always as easy as you might think. The WAREMA Collection Assistant helps you choose the ideal product based on your requirements and the circumstances on your patio or balcony. The tool uses filter criteria to narrow down the search results and create a visualisation that allows you to swap and preview designs and colours until you've found the perfect match. If you're still struggling to visualise the end result, you can use the AR app WAREMA Designer to virtually install your favourite fabric in your own home. Products can also be viewed and tested up close and personal at various WAREMA specialised retailers or at the WAREMA Sun Forum in Wertheim.
Even the most high-grade awning fabrics lose their UV protection capabilities, get damaged by bad weather or simply no longer match your personal taste at some point. But the good news is that there's no need to replace your old awning fabric with a completely new sun shading system. Often, the awning frame is still fully functional and intact. In this case, your WAREMA specialised retailer may suggest replacing the old awning fabric with your preferred new fabric, saving you time and money in the process.
Smart Home solutions from WAREMA make your home fit for the future. Automated sun shading products can conveniently be controlled to suit your current requirements in a matter of seconds using the smartphone app, voice assistant or at the press of a button on the hand-held transmitter with no other input required thanks to the smart weather station. Stay out of the rain, enjoy shading precisely where you need it or let in the warm sun in no time at all.
If you take the time to clean up minor stains on your awning or sun sail every now and again and don't just do everything in one go once a year, you'll protect your product against stubborn stains. Leaves, small branches and other coarse dirt couldn't be simpler to quickly remove by hand.
A standard colourless rubber eraser offers a great way to remove smaller streaks of dirt. A soft brush, microfibre cloth or cleaning glove paired with a suitable cleaner like the ACLARIS sun shading system fabric cleaner diluted with warm water can be used to thoroughly yet gently clean the surface of your awning fabric. Finish the cleaning process by applying sun shading system fabric impregnation to protect your sun shading system fabric against damp and dirt in the long term.
