Awnings by Bigley has relationships with the best suppliers in the business. Here is a list and links to some of our favorite suppliers:
They are the best in the business. The Martennson Family started in the shading business back in the 1850’s making ladies parasols during the victorian era. Today, their products are custom made here in America. Our customers love their awnings, because there is no better awning on the market. The best engineering, the best fabric choices, and the best assembly all in one manufacturer.
Eclipse Awnings represents quality. Their products are heavily tested, and well matched for the local conditions. Their broad product line and high-quality line gives us many options not otherwise available in the local market. Eclipse is a great ally in the local retractable awning market.
Sunbrella fabrics provide great selection with a quality product that has been around for a very long time. With super warranty coverage and a long-lasting product, it is no surprise Sunbrella brand fabric is the leader in the US market in marine, awning, and outdoor furniture fabrics.
Herculite is a global leader in the manufacture of custom fabric and textile. We provide high performance custom and industrial fabrics. Herculite Fabrics are widely used in the commercial and Military markets. We have used and sold hundreds of yards of Herculte fabric for US Navy, US Air Force, US Army, and Coast Guard applications and buyers.
Trivantage is a marriage of three big companies that were the leaders in their field. Glen Raven, Inc., maker of Sunbrella Brand fabric, purchased their two largest awning and marine canvas supply distributors to create a giant in the industry. Quality goods and quick shipping make Trivantage our major supplier of awning, outdoor, and marine fabrics, as well as fixtures.
Most people have never heard of Somfy Systems, but fortunately, we know them well. As a Somfy Certified Expert, we are well aware of the products Somfy has to offer. Motors, controls, and switches are their products. They make a quality awning or shade motor that has all the bells and whistles available such as wind sensors to auto retract the awning, and Sun sensors to shade the house when the sun gets too hot.
