Shade Net Prices & Installation in Kenya
What is shade net?
Shade nets are made of lightweight knitted polythene fabric that shields plants from the sun. It is a knitted fabric with UV-resistant additives that make it durable and long-lasting. Shade materials shield plants and animals from direct sunlight, high winds, and storms.
The Shade Net is available in a wide variety of filtration rates ranging from (30 % ) to (95 %) because farmers need them based on their climatic conditions.
Therefore we do site visits so to establish the suitable shade net to be used and advise the farmer on the way forward
Recommended Shade Net Material to use
Shade nets come in a variety of fabrics, and which one you choose depends on the sort of crop you have. Shade materials shield plants, pets, livestock, and people from direct sunlight and can act as a windscreen. Farmers use 35 percent to 55 percent density in cooler places, and 75 percent to 95 percent density in hotter areas, depending on the climatic conditions.
Many farmers believe that utilizing a high-density shade on the roofs and a lesser density shade on the walls is an effective way to create perfect shade conditions. Farmers can consult Aqua Hub Kenya Limited to determine the right shade cloth density for their climate and plant species.
