Quality & Materials.
One of the key points to consider when deciding between Banner Mesh or Printed Shade Cloth is print quality. This can differ between products and is mainly affected by the tightness of the weave.
Tighter weaves have greater block out capability, it lets less light through. The less light that’s let through the deeper the colour looks from a distance. This has the most impact on the dark colours like black, which can appear to look grey in light or bright conditions particularly on looser weave banner mesh or printed shadecloth.

Different weaves not only have different costs and print qualities, but also have different purposes. Environmental factors can play a role in which products best suited to your site these include wind, UV protection and whether the area needs to be protected from dust or debris, or needs to be covered for other occupational health and safety issues.
These should all be considered when making your decision, however if it’s a bit too confusing please give us a call we’re more than happy to help.
