Canopy shelters provide much needed protection from the sun’s heat and ultraviolet light.  They can be used to protect people, animals, and even plants.  Anywhere they are used, they create a safer environment for everyone.  Today’s design technology also allows manufacturers to build these shade structures in many different colors, so that the appearance of a facility is enhanced as well.  Commercial entities also benefit from the reduced heat transfer and light transmittance they contribute to. 

When purchasing canopy shelters, it is very important to select a model that is designed to withstand other environmental variables besides the sun.  Such a shelter should be able to take a pounding from rain, wind, snow, and hail.  Work with your Easy Rack expert to determine the requirements of your specific environment and let your specialist recommend an application-specific canopy shelter that will give you the very best in sun protection as well as other inclement conditions.    

One thing to consider is who you plan to be protecting and when.  If you are a homeowner, you are going to want to shelter areas where people congregate the most.  Patio canopy shelters are an excellent way to shield outdoor seating areas from direct sunlight.  The colored shade cloth they are made from allows them to compliment home architecture and landscape design.  They can be used over conventional patios or swimming pool patios.

If you have a really large yard with a practice field or a large open area where children run freely, nothing stands in the way of you investing in a playground canopy shelter.  These shade structures block 95% of the sun’s harmful ultraviolet rays and are the best way to let your kids have fun AND still play safe.  They are also very good for keeping pets safe from the heat and UV radiation of the sun.

Of course, if you operate a school, public playground, water park, or athletic center, you can definitely benefit from one of these solar shades.  Made exclusively in the USA and covered by a comprehensive warranty, you can count on these structures to last for many years.  Playground canopy shelters are available in a wide range of colors and will brighten up the exterior of any facility they compliment. 

Commercial facilities and large public parks may need a great deal more shade in open areas.  Municipalities often hold special events in the summer that require huge areas to be shaded for concerts, games, and food concessions.  Tensile canopy structures are ideal for covering these large areas so that crowds of people can enjoy the summer fun without the summer sunburn.

Tensile structures are clear span shade covers that are stretched across a variety of frame types with high tension force.  This tension makes them super resilient and stable in high winds and rains.  There are frame supports, cable net supports, air supports, grid shells, and even shelters shaped like geodesic domes. 

The shade cloth that is used to make canopy shelters is flame retardant and typically waterproof.  This makes them compliant with building codes nationwide and applicable to the climate of any region of the United States.
