Every day we’re seeing more uses for outdoor shading systems, especially the FlexShade® ZIP. The ZIP technology used on these shades keeps the fabric secure. A zipper detail is heat welded to the fabric and runs through a side channel on each side of the shade to keep the panel in place.
In this photogenic “Did You Know?” we’re sharing some beautiful shots of just a few of the many uses people are finding for the FlexShade ZIP.
