Shade Structures: HDPE Shade Fabrics

Our Shade Structures are made with HDPE (High Density Polyethylene) Fabric with ultraviolet additives.  It is Rachel knitted so it will not unravel when cut, ensuring stability and a consistent shade pattern.  The shade fabric cloth is known for its strength, vibrant color and durability.  See color chart for available colors.

Playing on a playground shaded with PlayTowers is similar to playing under a shade tree – the breathable fabric canopies lower the temperature underneath by 20 degrees while blocking up to 97% of cancer-causing ultraviolet radiation.

Utilizing existing playground equipment columns, PlayTowers integrate with the equipment – offering safe, obstacle-free shade directly over the heart of the playground.  Large playgrounds can be covered with continuous shade by designing effectively with multiple overlapping PlayTowers.

PlayTowers outdoor canopies are engineered for winds up to 170 mph(120mph with covers on) and 5 lbs snow load.  They can also be engineered to meet local code demands.

Quick and Easy cover removal – NO special tools to remove our outdoor canopies – just loosen the turnbuckles!
