Advanced Canvas & Upholstery works exclusively with the highest quality marine-grade materials available on the market, including Strataglass, O'Sullivan films, Stamoid, Sunbrella, Marlen Textiles, Weather Max, and Tenara threads. This commitment to premium materials ensures durability and longevity in the harsh marine environment.

Their canvas and cover capabilities extend across a wide range of applications including boat covers, sail covers, biminis, canopies, tonneau covers, and custom shade solutions. The team designs and installs Venturi wind screens and windshields using acrylic or polycarbonate materials, and fabricates custom sunfly shade poles in both stainless steel and carbon fiber.
