Replace awning fabric when the existing cover is faded, damaged or no longer suits the building. A WAREMA specialist retailer can assess existing awnings , record the required dimensions and recommend a compatible replacement fabric from the current collection. Replacement for non-WAREMA products depends on the model, condition and technical compatibility.
Awning fabric is exposed to sunlight, dirt and changing weather conditions during use. Over time, colours may fade, coatings may wear and the fabric may become damaged or lose tension. The condition of existing awnings and their mechanical components should therefore be checked before a replacement cover is ordered.
A specialist retailer can identify the product, measure the cover and check whether the fabric, seams and attachment method are compatible. Use the specialist retailer search to find a WAREMA specialist retailer for advice and professional fitting.
When selecting a replacement awning fabric, consider colour, pattern and texture as well as product-specific properties such as light transmission, glare control, privacy and UV performance. The available functions depend on the fabric quality, colour and awning type.
Some fabrics have a water-repellent finish that reduces the penetration of light surface dirt. This does not make the cover self-cleaning. Follow the care instructions for the selected material, remove loose dirt carefully and allow a wet awning to dry fully while extended when weather conditions permit.
A replacement fabric must match the dimensions, attachment method and mechanical design of the existing awning. WAREMA specialist retailers can help select a suitable awning fabric , prepare a made-to-measure cover and coordinate fitting.
Material composition, certification, UV performance and colour fastness vary by fabric. Review the current technical data for the selected design before ordering.
Seams, hems and attachment details are produced for the specified awning. Special fabric qualities, including more water-resistant, flame-retardant, translucent or robust variants, are available only for compatible products and applications.

The BRICHBAG project gives selected awning-fabric offcuts a new use.
Replacing the cover requires correct tensioning, secure attachment and adjustment of the awning. Incorrect work can damage the fabric or mechanism. A specialist retailer should assess the product and carry out the replacement.
Use the WAREMA Collection Assistant to compare current colours and designs. A specialist retailer can then check compatibility, take measurements and order the made-to-measure cover.
WAREMA replacement covers are generally specified and made to measure for the relevant awning. They are supplied through specialist retailers rather than as standard fabric by the metre. Availability can vary by country and product.
Check compatibility with the awning, dimensions, attachment method, colour, pattern and required properties. Fabric-specific data may cover UV performance, light transmission, privacy, water repellency and characteristic creasing or waviness.
Coverage depends on the insurance policy, country and cause of damage. Document the damage and contact the insurer before commissioning repair or replacement work. The insurer can confirm whether an assessment or specific evidence is required.
A specialist retailer can assess whether a WAREMA replacement fabric can be fitted to an awning from another manufacturer. Feasibility depends on the dimensions, attachment system, condition of the awning and availability of compatible components.
Visit a Sunlight Experience Centres or contact a local WAREMA specialist retailer. They can assess the installation situation, recommend a suitable bespoke awning, take measurements and prepare a quotation. Professional installation and after-sales service are also available.
