When you choose Coolshade by Ricky Richards, you are investing in a high-density polyethylene (HDPE) knitted textile that provides up to 95 percent UV protection; When installed correctly, this textile requires little to no ongoing maintenance making it ideal for outdoor shade structures. The use of monofilament and tape filament yarn, ensures durability ensuring confidence that even in extreme weather conditions this shade textile will perform above and beyond expectation.
Like all knitted shade fabrics, Coolshade is lightweight and has been manufactured to allow air to flow through, helping to create a cool shaded environment that will protect the people and valuable items below. Available in 10 popular colours and ideal for small to medium structures, shade sails, umbrellas, and privacy screens, Coolshade offers a full range of features including a 10-year UV warranty, along withpassing the Australian standard for knitted and woven shade fabrics.
At Ricky we understand that most shade structures are built within public places such as in council playgrounds, skating areas, schools, car parking stations, picnic areas, childcare centres, and the local swimming pool. So, while Coolshade has a strong resistance to chemicals and dirt, it may be a good idea to further prevent damage and vandalism on your shade structure by installing the unique product, Pricklz®.

Pricklz® is a specialty product that Ricky Richards has available to help prevent people from climbing up and on to a shade structure. This product is a rigid PVC with spikes that is designed to minimise harm by providing maximum protection. Whether people climb on structures to graffiti or just to sit on, all decreases the longevity of the shade structure.
By placing Pricklz® on the base framework or poles around your project, you can lessen cleaning or maintenance costs and increase the longevity of your project.
