If you are intending on organizing a trade show or an outdoor event, use pop-up canopies to protect your products from the elements and storage. These easy-to-assemble and dissemble canopies will make the process less hectic for your personnel.

Pop Up Canopies: Features

Typically, pop-up canopies are available in varied sizes ranging from 5'x5'-10'x20'. But you can also buy a custom canopy tent according to the size you need. These canopies have two components, the frame, and the top. The frame may be constructed of metal, steel, or aluminum.

Steel frames are heavier, but are less expensive than aluminum frames. Also, steel frames last longer since they do not rust easily. Aluminum frames are convenient to be carried around because they are generally lightweight metal.

Most canopy tops are made of polyester, a fabric rated in denier units. While buying, ensure that the denier rating of the fabric is 500 because a rating above this number will increase weight without adding any value to the material.

A straight-leg canopy is generally preferred to a slant-leg one because the former offers square footage from the leg base to the top. A 10×10 straight-leg canopy would provide 100 square feet of shade. A 10×10 slant-leg canopy would offer only 80 square feet of shade which is approximately 20% less square footage when compared to a straight-leg canopy.
