TECHNOLOGY THAT MAKES THE DIFFERENCE

Technical details of Ecotent pop-up gazebos

Robust aluminium frame, tested fabrics and smart details

Ecotent pop-up gazebos combine an aluminium frame with fabrics that have a tested water column and well-thought-out details for easy set-up and dismantling.

The aluminium frames of our pop-up gazebos are manufactured in Italy, and the textiles are processed and printed in Romania.

Sewn by hand with precision

The roof

Adjustable hook-and-loop fasteners
Additional fasteners at the corners keep the roof evenly tensioned. This keeps your logo clearly visible and lets rainwater run off better instead of collecting on the roof.
Colour-matched hook-and-loop straps
On the E1 and E2 series, the straps are matched to the colour of the roof. A subtle detail for a coherent overall look.
Reinforced contact points
Where the frame touches the roof, reinforcements made of Oxford 500D protect the fabric from wear. They are also colour-matched to the roof.

Technical details of our textiles

Ecotent products are made from resistant fabrics with documented technical properties. Our experienced seamstresses and tailors turn them into roofs that offer protection for many occasions.

Waterproof fabrics

Tested to EN 20811

The fabrics used for Ecotent pop-up gazebos have been tested for water resistance to EN 20811. The test measures how much water pressure the fabric can withstand before water starts to penetrate.

The water column varies depending on the fabric. Our fabric comparison shows the values for each option, helping you choose the right fabric for your pop-up gazebo.

Fire-retardant fabrics

Oxford 500D and 250D under EN 13501-1:2018

The Oxford 500D and Oxford 250D fabrics (fire-retardant version) were tested by the institute Efectis Nederland BV and classified as fire class B-s1, d0 under EN 13501-1:2018. They are therefore considered flame-retardant.

Public events and trade fairs often require proof of fire behaviour. You will find the documents in the certificate folder on the page about warranties and certificates. Direct contact with open flames must still always be avoided.

Fabrics with UV protection

UPF 50+ for sunny days outdoors

The Oxford 500D and Oxford 250D fabrics of Ecotent pop-up gazebos offer a UV protection factor of UPF 50+. They provide shade and help protect people, products and seating areas from intense sunlight. A pop-up gazebo does not replace full personal sun protection, however.

Lightfast colours

Tested for fading in sunlight

The colour fastness of the Ecotent fabrics was tested under DIN EN ISO 105-B02 and DIN EN ISO 105-A02. The test measures how resistant the colours are to artificial light that corresponds to natural daylight.

The values differ depending on the fabric and are listed in the fabric comparison. This is particularly important for coloured roofs, sidewalls and printed pop-up gazebos.

European standards and tested materials

Test reports, REACH and Global Recycled Standard

For Ecotent pop-up gazebos and materials there are test reports, declarations and certificates, for example on fire behaviour, UV protection and printing inks. The materials used are REACH-compliant, and a declaration of conformity is available.

For the Recycled fabric there is also a certificate under the Global Recycled Standard from Control Union, within the scope of the respective certificate. You will find all documents in the certificate folder.

Suitable fabric offcuts from our production are made into practical multi-purpose bags in our sewing department, which we supply to our customers.

Light, stable and corrosion-resistant

The aluminium structure

Rubber caps
Rubber caps protect the roof and scissor profiles from damage and extend the service life of the pop-up gazebo.
Ribbed aluminium profile
The ribbed square profile combines low weight with high stability.
Foot plates
Square foot plates made of galvanised steel or aluminium provide a stable base. Suitable anchoring is required for a secure stand.
Corner clip of the E1 series
The corner clip keeps the roof evenly tensioned. This keeps logos and lettering clearly visible.
Robust aluminium profiles
The reinforced profiles of the E1 series are designed for frequent professional use and longer periods in place.

CORROSION-RESISTANT AND EASY TO WELD

Aluminium 6060 from Italy

Ecotent uses anodised aluminium 6060 from Italy and processes it at the production site in South Tyrol. The alloy is corrosion-resistant, easy to weld and additionally protected from external influences by anodising. The matt surface gives a subtle look.

5 WELL-THOUGHT-OUT DETAILS FOR EASY HANDLING

Details for easy set-up and dismantling

Push button
The red push button releases the corner slider and makes dismantling easier. It also reduces the risk of trapping your fingers.
Plastic glides
Plastic glides on the moving parts of the aluminium frame reduce friction and make set-up and dismantling easier on the E1 and E2 series.
Set-up aid
The integrated spring bolt lets you extend the tent legs easily and without much effort.
Height adjustment
The E1 and E2 series can be adjusted in several steps to different requirements and ground conditions.
Bolt system
The bolt system connects the individual frame elements without screws that could work loose over time. Spare parts can therefore be replaced without tools.
