Education Providers

Commercial Shade Sails works with schools, TAFES, private colleges and universities to create safe spaces for students to learn, play and grow. We are specialists in shade solutions for the education sector and committed to sun safety for young people.

In Australia, we have the highest incidence worldwide of skin cancers, including deadly melanomas.

According to the Cancer Council of Australia, “approximately two in three Australians will be diagnosed with skin cancer by the time they are 70, with more than 750,000 people treated for one or more non-melanoma skin cancers in Australia each year. … In 2013, 12,744 Australians were diagnosed with melanoma.” Sun sense starts early with a Commercial Shade Sail in your educational facility.

Learning SunSense early with Commercial Shade Sails

Most children and teenagers are familiar with the sun protection advice slip, slop, slap and its extended version:

  • Slip on a shirt
  • Slop on sunscreen
  • Slap on a hat
  • Seek shade
  • Slide on sunglasses

Awareness is just the first step, however. A vital part of this sun sense strategy is seeking out shade and shelter. That is, good, practical action every single day that will count towards preventing skin cancer in later life.

That’s where Commercial Shade Sails comes in. We provide that excellent next step in sun safety, in offering a wide range of the highest quality shade cloths. Many of these have the highest available levels of sun protection, offering 99% protection from harmful UV rays under a 10- or 15-year UV protection warranty. A quality Commercial Shade Sail structure will also help reduce heat and glare. We are dedicated to keeping young people safe from dangerous levels of sun exposure.

Sun protection in education facilities with Commercial Shade Sails

UPF50+ is required for shade sails in Queensland schools and other jurisdictions around Australia. It is very important that children and adolescents are not over-exposed to UV radiation, as these are critical periods during which sun exposure is likely to contribute to skin cancer later in life.
