Install the right shade structures for your school, office, council or commercial building
The most important criteria when installing any form of shade is its rate of UV protection. With Yarra Shade Co you can have confidence in knowing that all our fabrics offer over 90% UV protection. With Australia’s ozone layer continuing to wither and the number of Australians being diagnosed with skin cancer every year, you need to ensure your shade cover is going to be effective at protecting people in your care from UV rays.
FAQs
This really comes down to your local council rules, the total size of the sail, and how close it sits to your boundary fence. You won't have to guess, though. We assess your site upfront, handle the engineering specs, and make sure everything goes up safely and strictly to code.
It completely depends on how you want to use the space. To block the harsh summer sun while keeping the area cool and breezy, high-density commercial mesh is the way to go. Need to keep a patio or outdoor dining area dry all winter? We use architectural-grade waterproof PVC, pitched perfectly so water never pools.
Melbourne weather doesn't mess around, so neither do we. Everything is built to handle local conditions for the long haul. We combine heavy-duty commercial fabrics with marine-grade stainless steel fittings and robust structural steel posts, so the sail stays taut, secure, and built to last.
We don't sell off-the-shelf kits, so we don't use off-the-shelf pricing. Every property has different wind loads, anchor points, and dimensions. We will come out to your site, take exact measurements, and give you a fixed, upfront quote based on the actual engineering your space needs.
