Global Shade Direct is a Gold Coast company that provides shade solutions to homeowners and business owners on the Gold Coast and Brisbane. We can have these shade solutions engineered, structured and fully customized according to your needs. Our products include shade sails, canopies & tension membranes, outdoor blinds, awnings and umbrellas.
If you like spending time in your garden or the backyard but the sweltering heat of the sun keeps you from doing so, the shade sails here at Global Shade Direct will make you enjoy outdoors to the fullest. By using one, you can relax outdoors even during the sunniest days. It protects you and your family from the harmful rays of the sun while you swim in the pool or do other hobbies.
Shade sails became popular in Australia because the climate is warm for most of the year. Our shade sails are made from strong but flexible modern polyethylene fabric that is manufactured specifically for the purpose of blocking UV rays. They promote a cool environment to a rather hot place. A shade sail can also be used to protect your car from the strong heat of the sun if your garage cannot accommodate all your cars. It can also be used for business purposes.
Global Shade Direct installs Canopies & Tension Membranes throughout Brisbane and the Gold Coast. A canopy is usually a permanent structure that has a roof and legs used to cover large areas. It is often used as a venue for events and functions. They are also used by homeowners for their garage, or by restaurant and café owners. Canopies can serve as storage sheds for things that need to be protected against the weather. A tension membrane, on the other hand, is a structure with a three-dimensional shape that allows just enough light through its “roof”.
We also have Awnings, which you can usually see in entrance ways to protect them from the direct heat of the sun. An awning is used to protect a portion of a window or door and serve as a shade. Some Gold Coast and Brisnane home and business owners have awnings installed to improve the architecture of the house, but its functionality obviously wins out.
Other products that we have are Outdoor Blinds and Outdoor Umbrellas. An Outdoor Blind is an effective shade solution especially if you want to enclose an area to protect it from the rain. If you simply want to stay in a place where you can rest under the sun without getting burned, then our patio umbrellas are perfect for you.
