Shade cloth for professional catering and conservatory projects
Professional shade cloths offer effective temperature regulation for restaurant patios, garden centers, conservatories, and agricultural greenhouses. Our range includes knitted HDPE tape cloths with a density of 185 g/m² for optimal shading of 95% without complete blackout. UV-stabilized material guarantees 6-10 years of weather resistance while maintaining airflow to prevent overheating. Temperature reduction of up to 10°C under shade cloth makes outdoor areas usable for guests during the summer months and protects plants from burning.
Available in heights of 150, 180, and 200 cm and roll lengths up to 50 meters for efficient installation on large surfaces. Buttonholes every 30 cm facilitate professional installation with clips, twine, or tensioning systems on existing structures such as pergolas, canopies, and greenhouse frames.
Shade Cloth Terrace: Technical Specifications
Professional shade cloths feature a knitted HDPE construction with an optimal balance between shade (95%) and air permeability. A density of 185 g/m² provides sufficient tensile strength for permanent outdoor installation with limited stretch during tensioning. UV stabilization according to EN 13561 guarantees color fastness for at least 6-8 years without degradation under continuous sun exposure.
The knitted structure allows 5% light transmission to prevent complete blackout, essential for plant growth in greenhouses and garden centers. Reinforced buttonholes every 30 cm prevent tearing during fastening and facilitate various installation methods. A water-repellent treatment reduces moisture retention and mold growth during long-term use. Made in the EU, it guarantees consistent quality in accordance with European standards for outdoor use.
Custom-made shade cloth for large projects
Conservatory builders, hospitality businesses, and garden centers require custom-made shade cloths adapted to specific dimensions and constructions. DM Covering supplies custom-made shade cloth with buttonholes placed according to project specifications for seamless integration into existing frames. Standard widths of 150, 180, and 200 cm with lengths up to 50 meters are available immediately. Custom sizes are available upon request with delivery time 10-20 business days.
For triangular canopies and pergolas, we cut fabric to the corner with reinforced seams and buttonholes at calculated locations. Waterproof versions are available for patio covers where complete rain protection and shade are required. Black and green are standard, with other RAL colors available upon request for architectural integration. Graduated prices for orders of 200 m² or more, with project pricing for conservatory builders and hospitality chains.
Shade cloths for greenhouses and greenhouses
Garden centers and nurseries use professional shade cloth for climate control in greenhouses without completely blocking light. A 95% shade reduction reduces UV intensity to protect delicate plants from sunburn, while 5% light transmission allows photosynthesis. A temperature reduction of 8-10°C under shade cloth reduces irrigation needs and lowers cooling energy costs. Large rolls up to 50 meters facilitate efficient installation above greenhouse frames with minimal overlap and material waste. Installation via shade clips or guy wires to existing greenhouse structures is straightforward.
Seasonal use is possible thanks to easy disassembly and storage during the winter months. Technical advice is available for calculating shade percentage, ventilation requirements, and fastening methods for each greenhouse type and crop.
