Oxford Wave Form Canopy
The Oxford twin hoop waveform is an alternative to the standard lean-to or barrel vault style canopies. Due to the double curvature, it is only available with polycarbonate cladding.
The Oxford twin hoop, trellis arch design is one of the most popular in our range of canopies. When installed in primary school outdoor play areas, the trellis arches can be used to hang sensory tactile artwork, and other decorative or informative items.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Are your canopies usable all year in all weathers?
-
Yes unlike some solutions that need to be taken down in the winter or during high winds our canopies are designed to be useable all year round. The cladding materials as well as providing shade are also waterproof so that they can be used during wet weather.
- Can we view existing canopies, so that we know what we are buying?
-
If you are considering purchasing a canopy from any company, it is in fact strongly recommended that you visit an existing installation to see exactly what you are paying for. At Clovis Canopies we are proud of our work and are happy to arrange (with the clients consent) for you to view examples of our work and structures.
- Do you fix your canopies directly onto tarmac?
-
No, all canopies are fixed on to concrete pads or bases as the structures can lift out from the ground if not fixed into a suitable concrete base due to the uplift created by wind acting on the roof area.
- Do you use Polycarbonate, PETG, GRP or Acrylic for non fabric cladding?
-
At Clovis Canopies we use polycarbonate roofing as although slightly more expensive, we find it has a better combination of strength, impact resistance, sheet size and colour, fire / flame resistance and longevity of life than any of the other above mentioned cheaper materials.
