| The Canvas Factory information |
Canvas bags and accessories, crafted in both traditional and modern materials for home, boat and outdoor activities. Our canvas bags are made out of 100% cotton canvas available in red, navy, royal blue, green, olive, black, tan, yellow and natural. The dyed canvas is colour fast and water proofed. We use heavy duty sail makers thread, solid brass eyelets and heavy duty zips. We also make awnings, balcony screens, deck cushions, sail covers and many custom made items for boats and patios using weather proof acrylic canvas. Some, but not all of the products shown on this site are made in house.

| History |
The Canvas Factory started when Doug Briscoe, after his circumnavigation, brought ashore his industrial Singer and started making bags and covers in his garage. After selling the boat, good day / bad day, he moved into the present location a 5 Foss St. Dartmouth. The 'high street' shop has lots of interesting canvas bags and accessories as well as Tilley Hats, fisherman's smocks and other carefully selected goods. The crew has grown; we not only make cotton canvas goods but also make awnings, sail covers, outdoor furnature covers, patio sun awnings, sail shaped blinds in weather proof acrylic canvas.The list is endless, please e-mail with your ideas or come by the shop when visiting the beautiful port of Dartmouth.
