Shade cloth

Fabric used in AEROTUBE Shade structures

Why we chose our special knitted shade cloth?
First of all reasons. It is so much cooler underneath. Knitted shade cloth allows air flowing though and produces less  radiant heat than woven fabrics.
Second, other fabrics will loosen and sag over time, our knitted high density polyethylene literally can not and will not sag. It will not stretch beyond  it's intended size! In a process called "Stentering", the polyethylene has been vaporized to eliminate the "droop" factor.

The fabric has a bursting strength is 350lb/sq. inch. It is primarily for Sun/UV protection as well as being hail proof and mold proof. The fabric is highly chemically resistant and will not be effected by foreign substances (i.e. bird deliveries, paint, tree sap, etc.).
It cleans with a quick spray from a garden hose.

Best of all your AEROTUBE
TM structure will block up to 94 % of the Sun's harmful Ultraviolet Radiation, in addition to lowering temperatures dramatically and providing up to 88% shade. The amount of protection depends upon which color is utilized, the darker the color, the greater the blockage.
