Shade Solutions for Everything Under the Sun

In the Southeast, sunshine is a given. States like Georgia, Florida and South Carolina see plenty of the sun’s ultraviolet (UV) rays and heat. Shade covers provide an effective solution for blocking harmful rays and keeping outdoor areas cooler.

At Playworx, we provide fabric shades in stunning architectural shapes and a range of colors. Our solutions suit a comprehensive array of commercial locations in the Southeast. Our shade structures utilize the most advanced architectural fabrics available, and our support elements are made with the finest-quality steel and state-of-the-art connection components to hold up to everything from corrosive salt air to tropical storms.

Southeast Shade Cover Solutions

We focus on supplying shade solutions in the Southeast. Our local presence means we’re aware of the unique challenges these installations face from the climate. Here’s a state-by-state overview of the challenges you may face:

  • Georgia: High humidity and heat make shade essential for staying cool. Georgia playground shade structures also need to allow airflow to avoid trapping warm air underneath.
  • Florida: This state faces extreme UV exposure. Shades must block these rays to protect children playing. Along coastal areas, the frames must also withstand salty air and hurricanes.
  • South Carolina: Coastal and inland areas have significant weather variability. Along the shore, challenges include salt air and hurricanes. Inland areas deal with high heat and humidity.

We offer playground shade structure installations for all of the following organizations and industries:

  • Parks: Our park shade covers keep families cool and protected from the intensity of the sun’s rays as they enjoy their local parks and recreation areas.
  • Schools and daycares: While every kid looks forward to an exciting outdoor recess, parents often want to limit their exposure to harmful UV rays. With custom shade structures for schools and daycares, parents can relax knowing their children are protected under the shelter of a durable canopy.

  • Athletic facilities: Playground shade covers for athletic facilities allow for endless outdoor excitement for younger guests.
  • Pools and waterparks: Families who have spent a day at the pool or waterpark are no strangers to sunburn. Our shade structures for pools provide a more pleasant experience by blocking the sun’s rays.

Our Playground Shade Structure Types

Playworx offers shades to suit every application, while providing the style you seek.

Umbrellas

These structures typically have a single center post with a shade extending on all sides. We also have unique umbrella designs, like multiple columns or a cantilever setup.

Hip End

These versatile structures have a single piece of fabric supported by multiple posts. They come in a range of shapes and sizes to suit your application.

Sail

These fabric canopies use several geometric panels to create designs resembling sailboat sails. They offer an appealing architectural look and the option to mix and match multiple fabric colors.

Cantilever

Minimize the number of posts with these shades that create an overhang. Columns are located on one side, so the full area under the shade is open.

Modular

These shades are designed specifically for mounting on playground equipment. They come in numerous shapes and sizes to fit your playground configuration.

Swing and Sandbox

Specially designed shades can cover additional playground equipment. We have options like a swing frame with a built-in shade. Sandbox shades come in many shapes and sizes to suit your play area.

Custom Solutions

If you want something unique, we can help you find an option with the desired function and look.

Benefits of Our Playground Shade Covers for Southeastern Installations

Playground shade structures offer a vast array of benefits for those who use them. Our selection of Georgia, South Carolina and Florida commercial shade solutions provides many advantages in the Southeast:

  • UV protection: Our fabrics shield against 97% of harmful UV rays, making them especially useful for states like Florida. The UV-stabilized fabric also reduces the chances of fading over time.
  • Cooling: Breathable fabric and effective shade coverage help keep play structures cool to the touch, preventing kids from overheating, reducing temperatures, and increasing comfort in hot Southeastern climates.
  • Durability: Structures shield against the elements. They are 80% water repellent and withstand high-speed winds. You can easily remove the fabric before severe weather, like hurricanes.

Adding a structure to your play area can provide many benefits, including:

  • Encouraging longer playtime
  • Promoting longer playground equipment life
  • Improving architectural aesthetic
