Why Sunbrella? Radish versus Carrot Analogy
Why Sunbrella? Traditionally dyed and printed textiles have color applied only to the yarn or fabric surface like a radish, which is red on the outside but white inside. Sunbrella is like a carrot meaning that the color goes to the core of every fiber and can t be peeled away Over time, traditionally dyed or printed fabrics can fade while Sunbrella does not.

Consumer Research
Consumer Research In about 2013, we surveyed consumers that had actually purchased awnings Found purchase reason to be the same as in the past sun control/expand outdoor living space Same demographics as in past (50+ years old, $150,000+ household income, etc.) Consumers enjoyed a feeling of comfort and peace while underneath basking in the reflective colors of the fabric
Consumer Research Women are our target market!! They are more likely to come up with the idea of an awning extends their living space They are generally more style and design savvy. They are generally more brand savvy and more likely to have previously encountered the Sunbrella brand
