Riptech/Aluminised was created by using Riptech300 and coating the one side with a silver resin. The silver side must face towards to the sun in order to redirect as much heat away from the underside of the material. This material is waterproof. This material can be used for awnings, tents, gazebos, tarps, with the purpose of reflecting heat and keeping you cool. This material can make a difference in temperature of up to 5 degrees Celsius. *2 YEAR WARRANTY – This applies to the entire range of RIPTECH™ fabrics. The fabric is guaranteed for a period of two years, during which it covers any abnormal deterioration of the waterproofing properties and general structural integrity of the fabric, given a normal exposure to weather and in the case that care and cleaning advices summarised in this document have been properly followed. The warranty includes the replacement of the fabric required to replace the product in question, excluding other expenses such as postage, sewing, labour and / or assembly.This warranty does not cover damages caused by accidents, mechanical action, rubbing, chemical aggressive agents, abuse and / or negligence.This warranty is applied from the date of the assembly of the product and any claim must be accompanied with the installers receipt and relevant roll number stating that the fabric used was RIPTECH™. Although the awnings can be used without poles, they still require the ropes to be tied down to prevent flipping over from wind gusts. Poles are recommended to be added for extra strength in heavier weather conditions.
