A small factory with serious machines.
Big 5 Canvas and Tents started in 2021 in Fourways, Johannesburg. We do one thing: repeat production of canvas and PVC products for other brands.
Who we are
A team of fewer than five people, with more than a decade of canvas and PVC manufacturing behind the machines. Small enough that the person who quotes your product is the person who makes sure it's built right.
We don't design products and we don't sell our own. We manufacture yours — and we've built the factory around doing that repeatably: a CNC textile cutter, industrial sewing machines, a high-frequency PVC welder and an eyelet press, all under one roof.
Why there are no product photos on this site
Everything we make belongs to someone else.
Our clients' products sell under their brands, not ours. Showing them off here would break the one promise a white-label factory has to keep. So the gallery stays empty — on purpose. If you become a client, the same silence protects you.
Where we work
The factory is at 14 Pommery Road, Nietgedacht, Fourways — on the northern edge of Johannesburg. Clients across South Africa work with us; couriers handle the distance.
Come see for yourself.
