Description
The RSI White Knitted Shade Cloth is designed for hot climates where you need reliable shade without trapping heat. The white surface reflects sunlight rather than absorbing it, so the space underneath stays noticeably cooler than it would under a dark cloth in the same sun. That’s why this line is called the Tropical Weather shade — it’s the one to pick when summer heat is your main problem, not just brightness.
It comes in one shade level, 50%, which filters half the incoming light — enough to take the edge off the heat while your plants still get plenty of sun. So choosing the right size is the main decision here. It’s available in 6ft and 12ft widths, with lengths from 8ft all the way to 60ft, and each cloth is custom cut to order in the USA.
Rust-resistant brass grommets come installed about every 2 feet around the full perimeter. Fasteners aren’t included, so if you don’t already have a way to tie the cloth down, add a pack of bungee balls — about one per grommet is a good rule of thumb.
Please note: because each cloth is cut to order, orders ship on Tuesdays and Thursdays only. Please allow 7–10 days for delivery.
