Many possibilities

The applications for sailcloth in recreation and sports are endless. From mats in various thicknesses and materials, trampoline edges, punching bags, storage bags, pads, applications for water sports, sailcloth for complete indoor play areas, and anything else you can think of. You can choose smooth materials or materials that provide some grip; you can opt for sturdy material that can take a beating or feather-light fabric that is easy to store.

Customer experiences

What drives us? Every day, we get to make people and organizations happy with fantastic sailing products! That’s why we cherish all the feedback we receive.

Top service! Last month, we contacted them to have lettering applied to a new sail. We found Harold very pleasant to deal with. Within three working days, we received notification that the sail was ready. One adjustment was needed with regard to the dimensions/distances, and this was resolved immediately. I would therefore highly recommend Albers. 

Truckit Verhuizingen

I had the tarpaulin of my Jamet folding trailer extended at Albers, and I can wholeheartedly recommend them to everyone. They had the most competitive quote, the work was carried out excellently, and they even carried out a number of additional minor repairs to the tarpaulin free of charge that they encountered during the work. Even when I noticed a small mistake afterwards, it was quickly and excellently remedied. 

Bas Kloet

We would like to thank Albers Zeilmakerij once again for their excellent service and pleasant cooperation with the order of our veranda sails. 

Family van Ewijk

We ordered awning covers from Albers Zeilmakerij. We are very satisfied with the products delivered. It therefore deserves our sincere compliments.
