Shade Nets for Sale in Kenya

UV-stabilized HDPE shade nets for farms, greenhouses, nurseries and car parks — knitted and woven, in black and green, 30% to 90% shading.

What Is a Shade Net?

A shade net (shade cloth) is a UV-treated HDPE mesh fabric that filters a set percentage of direct sunlight while still allowing airflow and rainfall through. In Kenya, shade nets are used across horticulture, floriculture, poultry housing, nurseries and car parking to reduce heat stress, protect crops from wind and hail, and cut water loss from evapotranspiration.

Knitted vs Woven Shade Net

Knitted shade net — the most common type in Kenya. Made from interlocked HDPE threads, it won’t unravel if cut and comes in a wide range of shading percentages.
Woven shade net — a tighter, tape-style weave used where near-total sunlight exclusion is needed, such as deep-shade car parks.

Looking for Insect Nets Instead?

Shade nets and insect nets solve different problems — shade nets reduce light and heat, insect nets exclude pests using a much finer mesh. If pest pressure (aphids, whitefly, thrips) is your main concern rather than sun exposure, see our dedicated insect nets in Kenya page, or read our full shade net vs insect net comparison.
