We have always believed that our growth as a company should be mirrored by the support we give back to the communities we serve at Ricky. As we have expanded our presence across the Sunshine State, we felt it was the perfect time to deepen our roots in a way that truly matters. We are […]
In Australia, the sun is a constant companion, but its intensity requires more than just a standard cover. For homeowners and developers alike, creating a comfortable, long-lasting outdoor space means looking beyond basic fabrics and investing in architectural-grade materials. Choosing the right textile is the difference between a structure that fades in three years and […]
When creating outdoor blinds and marine enclosures, clarity is everything. But true performance goes deeper than what you can see. It’s about how a fabric handles the heat, how it behaves during fabrication, and how it stands up to the relentless Australian sun. Today, we are proud to re-launch our premier clear PVC range as […]
Advertising and messaging is everywhere, and every square inch of space is an opportunity to tell a story. While walls and windows have long been the focus of promotional graphics, the floor is often an untapped resource for driving brand engagement. Today, we are proud to launch Rickyfloor —a printable floor linoleum that allows print […]
Download the Full Case Study HERE! In the world of tensile architecture, a project is only as strong as its weakest link.

At Ricky, we are constantly refining our ranges to ensure they don’t just meet industry standards, they set them. Last year, we made a bold statement by introducing a 10-Year Warranty across the Arcadia range. It […]
At Ricky, we’ve always believed that the right fabric can transform a project. But we also know that finding that fabric shouldn’t be a project in itself. Last year, we launched our new website with one goal: to build a digital tool that works as hard as you do. Now that we’ve settled in, we […]
When it comes to heavy-duty tarpaulin and cover applications, fabric failure rarely starts in the middle of the material. It starts at the joins. The welds. The stress points. And more often than not, that weakness can be traced back to how the fabric was coated in the first place. That’s exactly why Tarpol is […]
When working with heavy-duty PVC fabrics, width matters more than many people realise. For fabricators producing large covers, canopies and industrial protection solutions, standard roll widths often mean one thing: extra joins. And extra joins mean extra time, extra labour, and more potential weak points in the finished product. That’s why the introduction of Protarp’s […]
When it comes to marine projects, the right mesh can make all the difference — not just in performance, but in durability, ease of fabrication and long-term satisfaction. Choosing the right mesh means balancing UV protection, airflow, visibility and robustness. That’s where Outlook, Skyline and Maxiscreen really shine. Developed with global expertise and backed by […]
