Knitted Shade
Acadian offers a broad set of knitted shade fabric. Our knitted shade cloth is made of high-density polyethylene (HDPE), and knitted in a lock-stitch pattern which prevents unraveling in the event of a tear or a puncture. Additionally, Acadian’s knitted shade fabric does not require fabrication prior to installation and can be installed straight off the roll, using “S” hooks, wire ties or hog rings without the need for tape and grommets.
In comparison to woven shade, knitted shade is much simpler to install. For more information and a comparison of knitted versus woven fabrics, please see our blog post.
Treated with UV inhibitors, Acadian’s polyethylene is stronger and more pliable than polypropylene, resistant to most chemicals, and comes standard with a 5-year warranty against UV degradation.
