FAQ
Quick answers
What is printed shadenet?
Printed shadenet is 80% HDPE shade netting — also called shade cloth, shade netting or printed mesh — with a logo or branding screen-printed onto it. It's hung on construction site fences, event perimeters and around property developments, so the barrier that was already going up does a second job as advertising.
Where are you based, and do you work outside Cape Town?
We print in Retreat, Cape Town, at Unit 10, Celie Industrial Park, 4 Celie Road. We've supplied customers across South Africa since 2007 — tell us where the job is when you ask for a quote and we'll sort out the details with you.
What format should my logo be in?
Vector artwork is best — AI, EPS, PDF or SVG — because it scales to fence size without going soft. A high-resolution image works too. If you're not sure what you have, send it anyway and we'll tell you. Our team checks and, where needed, redraws artwork so it screen-prints crisply.
How long does printing take?
It depends on the size of the job and how full our print schedule is when you book. Rather than quote a standard number we can't always hold to, we give you a firm turnaround date with your quote — which you'll have the same business day you ask.
How long will the print last outdoors?
5+ years in full sun. We developed our own UV-stabilised, water-based ink specifically for HDPE shadenet — it bonds with the material rather than sitting on top, so it doesn't fade and crack the way generic printed mesh does.
What size are the rolls?
Standard rolls are 50m × 1.8m of 80% HDPE shadenet, with sewn-in eyelets every metre along the top and bottom. Custom sizes are available on request.
Can you print logos with more than one colour?
Yes. We screen-print in solid spot colours, and bold, flat logos reproduce best on shadenet. How many colours your logo needs comes down to the artwork — send it over and we'll tell you exactly what we can do.
What do you need from me to quote?
Three things: your logo (vector preferred, high-res OK), the dimensions or number of rolls you need, and any specific colour requirements. WhatsApp them to 072 647 8094 and you'll have a price the same business day.
How much does it cost?
It depends on quantity, size and the number of colours. There's no price list because every job is printed to order — but quotes are free, same-day, and no-obligation. Send your logo and dimensions and we'll give you an exact number.
