    Alnet’s revolutionary “Cool Shade” concept allows heat to escape while blocking harmful UV rays.

    Cooltone Extrablock shade cloth allows hot air to ventilate through the net offering a cooler shade and more comfortable environment compared with solid sheet roofing material.

  • “Breathability” to allow air to circulate and heat to escape
    • Reduces vehicle interior temperatures 10 to 40 degrees or more depending upon the time of day and heat index
    • Keeps vehicles up to 15 degrees cooler than conventional steel roof carports
  • Exceptional burst and tear strength due to the Rachel warp knitted and lock-stitched fabric; will not sag, stretch, tear or fray
  • Will not support mold, mildew or rot, or absorb moisture due to the base material being UV stabilized High Density Polyethylene (HDPE)
  • Dimensional stability due to stentoring (heat set) process
