Privacy Screen Fabric

SunTex 90 Fabric for Toronto and the GTA

SunTex 90 is the balanced 10% openness option in the lineup, giving patios, decks, and windows a practical mix of solar control, airflow, and outward visibility.

Balanced Solar Control Without Closing the Space In

SunTex 90 is usually chosen when the opening needs noticeable heat and glare reduction, but the homeowner still wants a lighter, more open feel from inside the space.

For Toronto and GTA projects with broad west-facing exposure, it works well on patios, decks, and windows where the view still matters and privacy is moderate rather than maximum.

Why Choose SunTex 90

A practical fabric for sun-exposed openings that still want a lighter feel.

Reduce Heat and Glare

SunTex 90 blocks a large amount of solar heat before it reaches the seating area or glass.

Keep a Usable View Out

Because the weave is more open than denser privacy fabrics, the outward view stays more relaxed from inside.

Allow More Air Movement

The openness helps preserve a breezier feel on decks and patios compared with tighter fabrics.

Work Across Many Openings

It adapts well to patios, decks, windows, and patio doors that need all-around comfort instead of maximum screening.

How It Works

How We Plan a SunTex 90 Project

  1. Review the Opening

    We start with how the opening is used, how exposed it is, and what the biggest privacy, sun, or weather problem actually is.

  2. Choose the Fabric

    We look at how SunTex 90 handles privacy, airflow, and visibility so the material matches the way the opening should feel in daily use.

  3. Match the System Details

    Once the fabric makes sense, we pair it with the right screen size, operation type, and mounting approach for the structure.

  4. Finalize the Layout

    We confirm which openings should use this fabric and whether any sides should use a different material for a better overall result.

Fabric Questions

SunTex 90 FAQs

What is the difference between SunTex 90 and SunTex 95?

SunTex 90 is more open, so it feels lighter and preserves more outward visibility. SunTex 95 is denser and is usually the better all-around choice when privacy is the bigger priority.

Does SunTex 90 provide full privacy at night?

No. It is primarily a daytime comfort and moderate privacy fabric, not a full nighttime privacy solution.
