Shade cloth has many advantages over traditional awning fabrics. All our shade cloth is UV treated so that it will withstand the sun for 10 years. It is guaranteed to not fade, rot, sag or mildew due to UV exposure for that 10-year period. The other BIG advantage is that shade cloth is porous, thus anything underneath will enjoy temperatures up to 20 degrees cooler. Tiny holes in the cloth allow for air to pass through.

The answer is 100% NO. Shade cloth is meant to be porous to allow for airflow. No one can guarantee a 100% waterproof awning type structure. Rain falls at different angles, and can come in through the sides of the structure. The benefits of shade cloth truly lie in its ability to filter dangerous ultraviolet rays.

Aesthetically, one looks like a succession of diamonds and the other looks like a succession of squares. The main difference between the two is that square mesh netting will naturally hang straight and to exact dimensions without a border installed. Diamond mesh has a lot more stretch, and must be pulled into place for it to install into exact dimensions when it has no border installed. See similar questions...

Shade Structures require a rigid frame usually square, rectangular or hexagonal in design to which fabric is then stretched over. They provide excellent cost effective coverage over larger areas. Whereas Shade Sails having no rigid support must be tensioned between a minimum of three attachment points, these could be posts, buildings or a combination of both. See similar questions...

Woven mesh is produced by the process of weaving, that is, by passing wires alternately over and under each other. Welded mesh is a grid formed of wires that are fused together at their junctions. It is produced on automatic welding looms by accurately positioning the short (weft) wires over the long (warp) wires and spot welding their intersections (not over and under, as in ordinary weaving).

When the outdoor temperature reaches a consistent daytime reading of 75 degrees, it may be necessary to apply shading to lower the temperature inside the greenhouse. Although temperature is scattered by the ribs between the polycarbonate walls, one may also want to consider the addition of a shade cloth. It is important to remember, however, that shading may slow the growth of some vegetables and flowering plants. See similar questions...

Making a simple shade cloth or greenhouse covering for your raised beds is easy. At your local hardware store, buy a length of flexible pipe (1/2" PVC works well and is generally affordable) and cut it into equal length pieces that—bent to fit over the metal pins—form half-circles of appropriate height. For example, in the picture to the right a 20' pipe was cut in half to make two 10' lengths, which form arches about 4' tall for use with a 4' wide raised bed. See similar questions...

The Stayfast is a very good quality material. The Sonnedecke Cloth is Haartz' version of the German Cloth and is a very good match- very high quality. It is argued that the Sonnedecke is a tighter weave than the German cloth and thus a better material. See similar questions...

and 5 mesh relate to how many holes per inch. 3.75 means there are 3.75 holes to the inch and 5 mesh = 5 holes to the inch. Therefore if you use a 5 mesh canvas you will use more yarn as the stitches will be closer together, it is also more expensive than 3.75 and only comes in certain yardages. It is great for really defining a design such as a floral. 3. See similar questions...
