Frequently asked Outdoor Shade Questions
QUESTION:
My outdoor shade component colors vary. Why is this the case?
EXPLANATION:
XDM gets its component parts from various locations. When components are made in multiple locations, each facility may use slightly different machines, materials, or processes. Even if they aim for the same formula (paint, plastic dye, fabric, etc.), small variations in raw materials can affect color. Even though the parts are supposed to match, there may be slight color differences, and that’s normal—not a defect.
See images of variations below:
