About Canvasland
39 years of problem-solving through fabric.
Canvas and PVC has been our craft since 1987 — cut, welded and stitched in our own Levin workshop. Today that covers shade sails, outdoor blinds, glazed roofs, ute canopies, marine covers and contract manufacturing for other NZ brands, with our own team designing, fitting and standing behind every job. Same team, same town, ever since.

Our story
Since 1987, built on solving problems with fabric.
Starting in 1987 producing drop sheets and railway tarpaulins, we adapted as the work changed — into shade, weather protection, outdoor living and industrial textiles. Everything we manufacture is still cut, welded and stitched in the same Levin workshop. Where a job calls for a specialist system, we measure it, design and spec it, and install it ourselves while a manufacturing partner builds to our drawings — Sunshade for shade sails, Rainbow Shade for our Ziptrak® screens, Cool Awnings for lateral arm awnings, CanopyTech for fixed roofs. Either way one local team owns the whole job, which is the only way we know to actually stand behind a fixed price.
Why Canvasland
Made to fit, not off the shelf.
Made to Fit
Every job is measured on site and built to that space — not a generic size off a shelf.
Premium Materials
UV-rated fabric, marine-grade fittings and aluminium chosen for what it actually has to survive.
Expert Craftsmanship
Same team quotes it, makes it and fits it — one trade, one workshop, since 1987.
One Crew, Start to Finish
One team quotes the job, manages the build and fits it — you deal with the same people from first visit to final handover.
NZ Owned & Operated
Everything we manufacture is cut, welded and stitched here in Levin. Specialist systems are built to our own measurements and drawings by NZ partners, and fitted by our crew.
