70% Knitted Shade
Our 70% knitted shade is designed to be used with a frame. The edges are folded, covered with shade tape and sewn with a double-needle lockstitch machine, with grommets about every 12" on all 4 sides. Life expectancy is about 10 years.
Knitted shade can't be pulled tight and hung flat in the air β it will sag (choose a woven shade for that). It's great for dog kennels or keeping leaves out of a pool, and small holes can be fixed with a simple zip tie.
73% Woven Shade
Our 73% woven shade is made to be hung flat in the air, giving a 73% shade factor. The edges are folded, covered with shade tape and sewn with a double-needle lockstitch machine, with grommets about every 12" on all 4 sides. Life expectancy is about 10 years, based on UV exposure.
Keep it pulled tight at all times β any flapping, or rubbing against anything, will shorten its life. The material is delicate to the touch, so take care when hanging it.
88% Gator Mesh
Our 88% Gator Mesh is an extremely durable sun shade. It's made on the same machines that make trampoline material, and other industries use it as hurricane fabric. The edges are folded, covered with shade tape and sewn with a double-needle lockstitch machine, with grommets about every 12" on all 4 sides. Life expectancy is about 10 years.
You don't have to be careful with this material β just keep it from flapping. Wind is its only enemy: if it ever blows away, you might still find it attached to the frame!
