SHADE STRUCTURESTM CAN TRANSFORM ANY OUTDOOR AREA INTO AN EXTRAORDINARY ARCHITECTURAL SPACE Shade StructuresTM is the leader in design and manufacturing of fabric shade systems. Over the past 25 years we have designed and built thousands of structures for a wide range of customers including parks & playgrounds, schools, sporting venues, retail centres, resorts & hotels, water parks, airports, transportation facilities and corporate offices. Our shade fabrics block out up to 96% of the sun’s harmful UV rays, reducing the risk of skin cancer from over exposure to the sun and providing cooler temperatures underneath the structures. Our fabric shade structures are engineered to withstand harsh weather conditions including heavy wind, snow and hail.

PARKS AND PLAYGROUNDS
A day at the park is essential for children and parents alike. Yet, all need to be aware of the potential dangers from too much exposure to the sun. Fabric shade structures block out up to 96% of the sun’s harmful UV rays while also protecting and preserving park and playground equipment. Our colourful structures and creative designs will enhance any location, but sun safety and protecting children is our top priority.

SCHOOLS AND DAYCARE
Children are most vulnerable to the dangers of heat and sun exposure between the hours of 11am and 3pm while they are often at school. Our structures provide essential shade during those hours by covering playgrounds, lunch areas, walkways, entrances, common areas and more. We can add school names and logos to our fabrics to reinforce school pride.

CHILDREN AND EQUIPMENT PROTECTED FROM SUN AND HEAT EXPOSURE THE CHALLENGE This park playground had some attractive features but during the summer months the equipment was simply too hot for children to play. The equipment, though only a year old, was also starting to show signs of deterioration due to the full time exposure to the sun and harsh weather.
Before
After THE SOLUTION The addition of this Super SpanTM Pyramid Multi Level structure solved the problem of hot play equipment by creating a much safer environment for children even on the hottest days. The play equipment will also last longer with full time UV protection. The blue and yellow fabric with beige steel posts makes the playground an eye catching focal point and compliments the colourful play structures.

SPACIOUS OUTDOOR LUNCH AREA FOR A SCHOOL
THE CHALLENGE This school had only a small, cramped indoor area to use for lunchtimes. The carpeted area was difficult to keep clean and the noise level was distracting in other areas of the building where classes were still in session. THE SOLUTION Shade StructuresTM solved the problem by taking advantage of a large under-utilised outdoor area to install four 20’ x 30’ Joined Hip structures. White steel posts with red fabric matched the school colours and provided shade for an expanded outdoor lunch area.
Shade StructuresTM can transform any outdoor area into a more useful and attractive space. A simple playground, pool and patio setting, walkway or other outdoor space can be dramatically transformed by an iconic or colourful fabric shade structure.
