I know my arb awning has uv protection with the material:
ARB Awning 1250 (ARB3110A)

The UV protection is for the awning itself. It's to let you know the canvas won't deteriorate in the sun. My tarp may not have a UV coating, and it will be sun bleached and sun damaged in a few years, but the tarp is held on my two bolt and is easily replaced for $10. UV protection doesn't mean anything to the person sitting under the awning.
