Fabrics: Shade Cloth

A versatile, lightweight shade solution.

Our shade cloth is 3-bar knitted and heat set, making it extremely durable. This material offers shade factor protection of between 80 ~ 90%, and UV block out of up to 96%. Shade cloth suffers minimal colour fading even after many years of weather exposure.

Shade cloth is not waterproof, although most rainfall simply runs off. Heavy rainfall creates a mist effect under the canopy, as raindrops penetrate the finely woven fabric.


All our products are manufactured to international quality standards and carry a 2 year warranty.
