Schools Out for Summer – Time to Re-cover your Gazova

Across the country, schools are closing for the summer holidays; a time when teachers can take a well-earned rest and improvements can be made to the school in preparation for the start of the new academic year in September and whilst school pupils are safely out of the way. One such school is the Redscope Primary School in Rotherham, where Specialised Canvas have installed a Gazova, which will offer the pupils protection from the damaging effects of the sun’s UV…

Garden Covers – Made-to-Measure

Summer is well and truly with us at last and an ideal time to sit out in the garden and enjoy a glass of chilled Pimm’s with a few slices of cucumber and a sprig of mint. Whatever your poison, it’s so much more pleasurable sitting comfortably beneath some shelter, which provides cool shade and prevents you wilting in the heat. So far, this season, we’ve had plenty of requests for the sort of canvas solutions we’re used to providing…

Metropolitan Police Service – Coffin Drape

Specialised Canvas Services were recently commissioned to produce a very special one-off coffin drape for the Metropolitan Police Service. This will be held in store and used for a death in service on special, high profile occasions. The drape was made from a rich, dark blue heavy poly-cotton material with the Metropolitan Police crest being elaborately and sumptuously hand embroidered using a combination of both gold and silver bullion thread. It really is an absolute work of art and has…

Bespoke Sun-blinds for Provence Rooftop Terrace

At this time of year, the sun comes out, which is always very welcome. However, in some cases and particularly in the South of France, it can get a little too hot at times and the direct sunlight uncomfortable. We’ve manufactured these custom-made sun-blinds for a customer who has a house there and is delighted with the result. ‘They have done the job splendidly.’ This is just one example of the many ways we can create unique canvas products, made…

Golf Buggy Enclosure Rezipped!

As you know, we do love a challenge and are often presented with new and intriguing tests of our know-how. We were recently approached by a keen golfer (Chris); so keen in fact that he likes to get out and play in all weathers and even has a special cover for his golf buggy, which he refers to as a golf enclosure. The cover he had was rather premium and so when the zip fastener no longer worked, he understandably…

Gimme Shelter

We were recently asked by a customer to create some additional protection from the elements for a Fiat Ducato. The popular vehicle, used for camping across Europe comes with a built-in extendable awning. This is fine when the sun is directly above or the rain falling vertically, but as we all know this is not the norm and the weather has a way of getting in from all sides. We effectively ‘pimped’ this particular camper by developing a custom made…

IBC Protection Covers

Specialised Canvas Services design and manufacture tough, robust, high quality purpose-specific bags and covers which are guaranteed to do the job and which fulfil a variety of needs. But we don’t always know what we might be asked to create. We were recently approached by the Chesterfield branch of a large UK plant hire business and asked to come up with something very specific. Clee Hill are a leading construction plant hire company and the largest compaction and surface dressing hire…
