The Shaderunner® is an Australian made all-weather retractable shade. The fabric canopy is made from polyester mesh which provides high levels of UV sun protection. Aluminium tubes or battens are used to support the fabric. These tubes have a series of rolling pullies, which slide along a pair of steel wires. This allows the Shaderunner® to easily extend or retract in a matter of seconds. A simple rope and pulley system is used to operate the shade.
