SUNBRELLA ®<br />
RENAISSANCE<br />
THE FIRST SUNBRELLA ®<br />
FABRIC MADE WITH<br />
RECYCLED FIBRES<br />
The new Sunbrella ® Renaissance collection,<br />
made with up to 50% recycled fibres, is<br />
available in three beautiful styles with a wide<br />
range of colours and designs that can be<br />
elegantly mixed and matched:<br />
Heritage – a lovely array of seven solids;<br />
Parker – three new striped patterns for<br />
a fanciful flair; and Sax – six herringbone<br />
patterns for a chic, sophisticated look.<br />
The recycled fibres are taken directly from<br />
the factories where the fabric remnants are<br />
divided by colour batches, reconditioned as<br />
fibres and woven together with fresh, new<br />
Sunbrella ® fibres.<br />
The Sunbrella ® Renaissance collection<br />
features 16 exquisite references, all protected<br />
by a special weather-proofing, stain-proofing<br />
treatment and backed by a five-year warranty.<br />
This collection provides a vintage feel with a<br />
modern twist for an eye-catching, comfortable,<br />
environmentally-friendly outdoor setting.<br />
Atmosphere created with the following fabric references:<br />
Sax Cardinal / Heritage Papyrus / Sax Char / Parker Magma.<br />

SUNBRELLA ®<br />
STRAPS<br />
THE STRAP<br />
EFFECT STEALS<br />
THE SPOTLIGHT<br />
A fundamental trend, the strap weaves its<br />
braids on today’s chairs, benches and other<br />
types of designer seats. By launching its<br />
first collection of outdoor straps (Sunbrella ®<br />
Straps), in collaboration with the style team,<br />
<strong>Dickson</strong> offers outdoor furniture makers<br />
an exciting opportunity to personalize and<br />
market customizable products. Using two<br />
types of weave (canvas and braided), they<br />
can create their own unique straps, drawing<br />
from the vast array of predefined colours.<br />
The first solution-dyed acrylic fibre Straps<br />
to hit the market, this collection provides<br />
unparalleled resistance to UV rays and<br />
coordinates exquisitely with all the Sunbrella ®<br />
Outdoor fabrics. Thanks to the reinforced<br />
spinning of the yarn, it also provides the<br />
comfort and durability needed for this very<br />
specific application on seats and backs of<br />
chairs.<br />
THE SUNBRELLA ® STRAPS COLLECTION<br />
INCLUDES :<br />
2 weave effects to mix and match within an elegant<br />
range of predefined colours, backed by a 5-year<br />
warranty and protected by a special stain-proofing,<br />
weather-proofing treatment:<br />
Canvas effect: 4 widths (15, 30, 40, 50 mm)<br />
Braided effect: 1 width (50 mm only)<br />
Colours and design (solids or stripes) on request.<br />

SUNBRELLA ®<br />
TERRY<br />
FOR THE PLEASURE<br />
OF BEING AT SEA<br />
Sunbrella ® launches its Sunbrella ® Terry<br />
collection, catering to the specific needs of<br />
the boating market. This clever range of terry<br />
cloth fabrics particularly appeals to the many<br />
boat owners who must cover their leather or<br />
leatherette seats with cotton to protect their<br />
skin from the heat.<br />
Unlike most cotton fabrics – that do not<br />
withstand the wear and tear of repeated<br />
machine washing and extended exposure to<br />
UV rays very well – the new Sunbrella ® Terry<br />
fabric guarantees long lasting colourfastness<br />
and UV protection as well as effective<br />
resistance to mould and the rigours of a<br />
marine environment (salt water in particular)<br />
thanks to the solution-dyed fibres used in its<br />
unique weave.<br />
It is also softer, thicker and more comfortable<br />
than fabric made mostly with cotton.<br />
A luxurious knitted terry cloth designed<br />
to optimize the texture, performance and<br />
elasticity.<br />
THE SUNBRELLA ® TERRY COLLECTION<br />
is available in 9 solution-dyed colours<br />
and backed by a 5-year warranty.<br />
