Branded shade cloth · Since 2007
Branded shade cloth, printed with your logo
Your logo screen-printed onto 80% HDPE shade cloth with our own UV-stabilised ink — sharp for 5+ years in full sun. Branded shade cloth is the only thing we print, and we've been doing it for nearly twenty years.
What it is
The fence is going up anyway. Put your name on it.
Branded shade cloth — shadecloth, branded shade net or hoarding net, depending on who you ask — is the knitted HDPE netting you see on construction site fences, event perimeters and around new developments, with a company logo printed along its length. The barrier was going up regardless; branding it turns every metre into advertising for the life of the project.
We're Printed Shadenet Solutions, in Retreat, Cape Town. We don't sell plain shade cloth, carports or shade sails. We print logos on shade cloth, in-house, and supply contractors, developers and event organisers right across South Africa.
Why it lasts
Branding that still reads at handover
Most printed mesh chalks, fades and cracks within months in South African sun. Ours is built to outlast the job.
Our own ink
We developed a UV-stabilised, water-based ink specifically for HDPE shade cloth. It bonds with the material instead of sitting on top.
5+ years in full sun
Prints stay sharp and legible outdoors through summers, wind and rain — so the branding works from ground-breaking to handover.
A date we keep
You get a firm turnaround date with your same-day quote, set against your actual job and our print schedule.
Proven since 2007
Thousands of branded rolls delivered for contractors like Stefanutti Stocks and Isipani, and for brands, events and developments nationwide.

FAQ
Branded shade cloth questions
What is branded shade cloth?
Branded shade cloth is HDPE shade netting with a company logo or message printed along its length. It's hung on construction site fences, event perimeters and around property developments, so the barrier that was going up anyway also works as advertising. We print ours on 80% HDPE shade cloth with our own UV-stabilised ink.
Is shade cloth the same as shadenet?
Yes. Shade cloth, shadecloth, shadenet, shade net and shade netting are all names for the same knitted HDPE netting, and on construction sites it is often just called hoarding net. We print on 80% HDPE, the standard for site fencing. More on the names.
How long does the branding last?
5+ years in full sun. Our ink was developed specifically for HDPE shade cloth and bonds with the material rather than sitting on top, so it doesn't fade and crack the way generic printed mesh does.
How much does branded shade cloth cost?
It depends on quantity, size and the number of colours in your logo. Every job is printed to order, so there's no price list — but quotes are free, same-day and no-obligation. Send your logo and dimensions and we'll give you an exact number.
Do you deliver outside Cape Town?
Yes. We print in Retreat, Cape Town, and have supplied customers across South Africa since 2007 — we regularly deliver to Johannesburg, Pretoria and Durban.
