All our fabrics are available in a diverse colour palette. From the bright and vibrant Oxford fabrics to the matt and natural Recycling fabrics. They can all be customised with different types of printing!
For frequent use
Oxford 500D
Oxford 500D is the stronger of the two Oxford fabrics. With a yarn count of 500 denier, a weight of 220 g/m² and the highest maximum tensile force figures in the Ecotent fabric comparison, it is designed for regular use.
The fabric has a water column of 1,500 mm, provides UPF 50+ protection and is classified as B-s1, d0 under DIN EN 13501-1:2018.
Oxford 500D is available in twelve standard colours. In addition to heat-transfer and screen printing, full-surface dye-sublimation printing is also available. This makes it possible to reproduce photographs, gradients and large-scale designs.
Lighter and budget-conscious
Oxford 250D
Oxford 250D weighs 160 g/m², making it lighter than Oxford 500D. It is particularly suitable if you use your pop-up gazebo occasionally and want a balanced combination of features and price.
The fabric has a tested water column of 2,000 mm and provides UPF 50+ protection. The fire-retardant version is classified as B-s1, d0 under DIN EN 13501-1:2018.
There are twelve standard colours to choose from. Logos, lettering and design elements can be applied using heat-transfer or screen printing.
Recycled polyester
Recycled
The polyester base fabric of the Recycled material is made from 100% recycled polyester. The fabric also has a PU coating. The origin and processing of the recycled material are certified to the Global Recycled Standard, or GRS.
The fabric weighs 250 g/m², has a tested water column of 2,000 mm and provides UPF 50+ protection. It is not fire-retardant and is available in the matt shades Olive, Stone and Sand.
Logos, lettering and individual design elements can be applied using heat-transfer or screen printing.
No fire classification
Non fire-retardant Oxford 250D
This version has the same technical properties as the fire-retardant Oxford 250D in terms of yarn count, weight, water column and UV protection. However, it is not classified as B-s1, d0.
Choose this version only if no corresponding fire certificate is required for your planned use. Before attending an event, check the organiser’s requirements and any applicable local regulations.
All pop-up gazebo fabrics must be kept away from naked flames and direct heat sources.

Frequently asked questions about pop-up gazebo colours and fabrics
Can the fabrics be personalised?
Customisable pop up gazebo fabrics
Yes, all fabrics can be personalised. Oxford 500D is suitable for dye-sublimation, heat-transfer and screen printing. The Recycled fabric and both versions of Oxford 250D can be personalised using heat-transfer or screen printing.
The right method for your design depends on factors such as its size, colours and the area you want to print.
Does a coloured pop-up gazebo cost more than a white one?
The colour changes, but not the price
With the same configuration, choosing an available standard colour does not change the price. A custom colour created using dye-sublimation printing is calculated as printing and comes at an additional cost.
Can you produce colours outside the standard range?
Choose an individual colour for your pop up gazebo
Custom colours can be applied to white Oxford 500D using dye-sublimation printing. The result depends on the colour data provided, the fabric and the printing method. Our graphics team will check what is possible and help you prepare your artwork.
Does the price of the pop-up gazebo depend on the fabric?
Different fabrics for different applications
Yes. The price depends on the fabric and the size of the pop-up gazebo. The configurator shows how your choice affects the price of your specific configuration.
Is the Recycled fabric more environmentally friendly than the other fabrics?
Recycled fabric
The overall environmental impact cannot be determined from the material alone. What can be verified is that the polyester base fabric is made from recycled polyester and that the fabric is certified to the Global Recycled Standard. A complete environmental comparison would need to consider additional factors throughout the product’s life cycle.
