Shade cloth AWTools AW67268, UV-protective garden cover, weight 5.4 kg

AWTools AW67268 shade cloth is a polyethylene garden cover designed to reduce direct sunlight and provide reliable shading for outdoor spaces. The fabric is sturdy and durable, offers UV resistance, and is intended for practical use in horticulture, terraces, balconies, pergolas and temporary shade installations. Weighing 5.4 kg, the product is compact enough for handling while giving effective protection for plants and outdoor living areas against excessive sun, wind and dust.

Advantages

The shade cloth combines a robust polyethylene construction with UV-resistant treatment to extend service life in outdoor conditions. Reinforced mounting eyelets positioned on the top and bottom enable secure and even attachment to frames, fences or support ropes. Its durable weave reduces light transmission and helps moderate temperature and light levels for plants and shaded areas, while resisting wear from wind and dust exposure.

How to use

Unfold the shade cloth and position it over the area to be shaded. Secure the cloth using the reinforced eyelets on the top and bottom, attaching them to hooks, ropes, grommets or a supporting frame to ensure even tension. Adjust the height and angle to control the amount of light and airflow reaching the covered area. For greenhouse use, ensure the cloth is fastened so it does not contact delicate plants; for terraces or pergolas it can be attached to beams or posts to create an overhead canopy.

Usage recommendations

For longer service life, rinse off accumulated dust and debris periodically and allow the cloth to dry before folding and storing. Avoid sharp edges when attaching fastenings and inspect mounting points regularly for wear. Use appropriate tension—too tight can stress eyelets and anchors, too loose can flap in strong wind.
