For public spaces

Enjoying the outdoors and bonding with family and friends at minimal cost is just one of the reasons why people love public spaces. However, not all public spaces are made equal, and shade structures can be the difference between a great public space and a public space that cannot be enjoyed all year round.

Public pools can be covered with shade structures in order to minimize the community’s risk of sunburn and skin cancer during the hot summer months when taking a dip is the only thing on everyone’s mind. Covering specific parts of the playground with shade structures will also ensure that children can enjoy playing with their friends without their parents worrying about rain or too much sun.
