Description
Shade for a narrow planting area
Run this 1.2m × 10m green shade net along a plant bench, garden frame or other suitable support to reduce direct sunlight on the planting beneath.
The 55% shading mesh is open to airflow, giving you a flexible covering rather than a solid screen. Position it for the plants and the sun exposure of your site.
One net is supplied folded. Supports and fixing materials are separate.
Check the width of your support
A long net still needs enough width for the way you intend to fit it.

Flat net dimensions · 12m² of material
Measure the route the net will follow, including any section wrapped around a frame or used at the fixing edges. The 1.2m width is the available material width, so check it before planning a cover over a wider bed.
The 12m² figure is the area of the flat net. It is not a promise of 12m² of usable shade on the ground: the position of the sun, height of the support and angle of the net affect where its shade falls.
Open mesh, rather than a solid cover
The 60gsm green mesh lets air pass through its weave. It can be used for shading in gardens, greenhouses and nursery growing areas, with the installation chosen to suit the site.
The net is UV protected, and its stated shading factor is 55%. Those are separate product features: the shading figure does not specify a UV-blocking percentage or a guaranteed temperature reduction.
Rain can pass through the mesh. Choose another covering if your purpose is to keep the area dry, and continue caring for the planting beneath the net.
Fit it to the planting and the frame
Plan the shade position first, then distribute the fixing points.
Check where shade is needed
Consider the plants’ light requirements and how the sun moves across the area. Position the support so the shade falls where you need it, leaving access for watering and other garden care.
Choose the connections
Use the fixing openings along the edges or suitable mesh clips, together with connections suited to your frame. Rope, ties, clips and supports are not included. Avoid pulling all the tension onto one point.
Inspect after fitting
Check the net, supports and fixing points once installed and as conditions change. The product has no stated structural load rating; do not rely on the mesh to make an unsuitable frame secure.
Choosing and fitting your shade net
Does 55% mean the same as UV protection?
No. 55% is the net’s shading specification. The material is also labelled UV protected, but this does not state a UV-blocking percentage. Choose the net for the shading needs of your planting rather than treating those figures as interchangeable.
Will the net keep rain off my plants?
No. This is open mesh, so rain and air can pass through it. Its purpose is shading rather than creating a waterproof shelter. Check the soil and plants as usual, and choose a separate type of cover if keeping rain out is your requirement.
How much space will a 1.2m × 10m net shade?
The flat material measures 1.2m wide and 10m long, an area of 12m². Wrapping or securing it uses some material, while the height, angle and sun direction determine the shade on the ground. Measure your support and proposed fitting arrangement rather than using the area alone.
Are clips and ties included?
No. The pack contains one folded green net only. Choose suitable clips, ties, rope or other connections separately for your supporting structure. Check that any clip fits the weave and thickness of the mesh before arranging the whole installation.
