70% density blocks out 70% of light. Constructed of high density polyethylene, the tough lock-stitch design of this knitted material resists rips, tears and fraying while reducing wind speed and heat build up in structure.

Bulk shade cloth has an unfinished edge that does not include reinforcing tape or grommets.
Unlike woven shade cloth, the tough, lockstitch construction of our knitted material will prevent unfinished edges from unraveling.
Bulk shade cloth can be easily cut with a sharp pair of scissors to any desired size.
Bulk pieces can be attached using snap grommets, zip ties or other fastening methods.

Hanging Instructions

When hanging shade cloth pieces larger than 100 sq. ft., you may need extra center support to prevent the cloth from sagging in the middle. One easy way to do this is by running lightweight cable from corner to opposite corner, forming an X pattern that the cloth can rest on. For pieces larger than 400 sq. ft., you may need cables running end to end every 4′ or so.
