Future Shade are currently constructing new shade sails being installed at Westfield Plenty Valley shopping center at the new magic hand car wash . It was rock city under the soil, Our pier footings quickly turned into huge Pad footings, 18 cubic meters of concrete poured Saturday . Can’t wait for the final photos of this site.

Can’t wait for the final photos of this site.The hyperbolic shade sails designed for this site are a mixture of both Waterproof tension membrane sails providing 100% UV block, and commercial grade shade cloth sails providing 95% UV block.Our Team have enjoyed working with Demrock group on this project and look forward to building a strong working relationship with Brock and his team.

For busy commercial locations like car washes, detailing bays, and customer pickup areas, shade does more than improve comfort—it can support operational flow. Shaded working zones can reduce heat stress for staff, create a better customer experience, and help protect vehicles from harsh UV exposure while they’re being serviced. It also improves visibility by reducing glare on windscreens and paintwork, which is useful during inspection and finishing.
Commercial shade sails should be specified for high-use environments. That includes selecting fabrics with strong UV stability, considering drainage and runoff during storms, and engineering the support structure for wind loads and long-term tensioning. Where space is tight, careful layout planning can provide coverage without obstructing vehicle movement or signage.
Regular inspection and tension checks help keep sails performing well over time. With the right design and maintenance, shade sails can remain a durable, visually appealing solution for commercial sites and high-traffic customer areas.
In a customer-facing environment, shade can also support wayfinding and presentation. Clear coverage over waiting areas and pickup points helps customers feel more comfortable, while consistent shade across working bays improves workflow for staff throughout the day. If a site operates early mornings or late afternoons, consider how low-angle sun impacts coverage and whether additional panels or a layered configuration is needed.
Commercial sites often have constraints such as service lanes, overhead clearance, signage sightlines, and proximity to neighbouring properties. A well-planned shade solution balances coverage with safe vehicle movement and access for maintenance. Where approvals or engineering documentation are required, completing this early helps keep the project on schedule and ensures a safe, compliant outcome.
