Be Cool Solutions™ 70% Aluminet Tape Knit Shade Cloth, Bulk

Grommeted Panel

The edges of these panels are sewn with heavy-duty reinforcing tape. Brass grommets are installed on approximately two-foot centers around the perimeter. They often include a seam where two pieces of shade have been sewn together. The panels are durable and easy to install with ropes, bungees or wire. It's the most durable solution for smaller areas where the shade cloth will be suspended between four points. Grommeted panels are sold in pre-cut sizes or ordered in any custom size.

Precut Panel

A raw piece of shade fabric where the edges of the panel are not reinforced with any tape or grommets. It would not typically have a seam but may have a raw (cut) edge. They can be installed with wiggle wire, shade cloth clips or wooden lath. Precut panels are sold in precut sizes or can be ordered in any custom size.

Bulk (currently viewing)

Sold in factory widths by the linear foot. It would only rarely have a seam and the sides typically include a factory-finished (uncut) edge. The most cost-effective solution for large quantities of shade fabric.

While many plants like sun, others aren't so fond of it. Use 70% Aluminet™ shade fabric to safely prevent most light from entering your greenhouse. Aluminet is a special reflective shade cloth that was developed to offer better temperature regulation, frost protection and pest repellence than traditional black cloth. The 70% light blocking is ideal for orchids and ferns, and you can also use Aluminet sun shade material to provide temperature relief and privacy for garages, pet enclosures and patios.

With its durable metallicized HDPE fibers and lockstitch construction, Aluminet shade cloth will stay intact even if you leave the edges unfinished. It can be set up as a permanent barrier or moving screen, depending on your plant requirements. Purchasing reflective shade fabric in bulk is a smart choice for large projects that require unique panel shapes or custom hanging. We sell it per foot with several width options and tiered volume discount pricing to give you the best deal.
