Monday, November 1st, 2010

In these uncertain times, every penny counts…
However, it is not the time to cut back on quality and then find yourself in the position of having to replace something a couple of years down the line because it wasn’t fit for purpose – but was cheap and cheerful.

Safe Shade’s products provide quality, bespoke shade solutions at cost effective prices.  Tailor made to meet your specific requirements, our shades ensure you get the best value for money and a product that lasts. 

Peace of mind, that you have a safe, effective solution is definitely money well spent.

...imagine your logo here

Fabric canopies provide a great opportunity to create inspirational space for many environments

They do of course enhance outdoor areas into impressive, functional areas, providing crucial shade and shelter from the external elements.  However, the shades themselves form a blank canvas just waiting to have your logo or corporate message printed onto them communicating your brand ethos… a clever and creative way to engage with your staff and visitors.

Printed Shade Sail

Shade Sail with lighting

Shade Sails have many different uses for a multitude of sectors, ranging from an outdoor classroom, walkway cover or smoking shelter to a welcome piece or statement structure. 

Beautifully designed, our shade solutions form many different shapes to cover all sizes in lots of colours!  However, sometimes that just isn’t enough…so we thought why not print images or logos onto your shades or perhaps fit sensory lighting for that extra special finish. 

Being part of a Group, TEW Engineering,  means we have a great team of people, with lots of ideas just waiting to be brought to life – to discuss your project needs just give us a call!

As the weather starts to change, our customers’ requirements also change. The focus shifts from wanting shade from the sun’s harmful rays, to wanting to shelter from the rain.

So, what do we have to protect from the rain…lots!  We have waterproof Retractable Umbrellas, our Shade Sails are available in a waterproof fabric,  and our Tension Structures come with a waterproof fabric as standard.  Available in 30 different colours, they offer the perfect solution to protect from the good old British weather…just add wellies!

It’s that time already!

After the long summer break, it’s time to get back to school! 

Hope you’ve all had fun in the holidays? We’ve been busy installing lots of shade sails ready for the new term, so some nice colourful playgrounds to welcome children and staff back!

Fingers crossed we get a little more sunshine before the dark nights and cold weather start to creep back in…if not, there’s always our weatherproof shade sails, so all can enjoy being outside come rain or shine!

 A fantastic solution for almost any application, they are supplied as standard using our waterproof fabric, great for  providing all year round protection.

"Happy Easter"

Happy Easter from our recently rescued battery hens.  They have been laying eggs all week in time for Easter.  We have 20 already from just 6 hens over 5 days – well done girls!  I’m sure the Safe Shade team will soon be full up on these wonderful eggs, as well as the chocolate variety of course!
