ZNY Agri manufactures HDPE shade nets for agricultural importers, greenhouse suppliers, farm distributors, nursery projects and commercial shading applications. Our range includes monofilament shade net, tape shade net and customized knitted shade cloth with 30–95% shading rates. Common specifications include 1–20 m widths and approximately 0.12–0.35 mm thickness, with custom roll lengths, colors and packaging available for suitable orders. UV stabilization, fabric weight, yarn structure, ventilation and tensile performance can be matched to crop, climate, installation method and expected outdoor service life. OEM and ODM support covers structure, shade rate, dimensions, color, edge finishing and private-label packaging.
We manufacture HDPE monofilament shade net, tape-yarn shade net, knitted agricultural shade cloth and customized outdoor shading nets. Monofilament products are often selected where buyers need stable yarn geometry, good tensile performance and a cleaner appearance. Tape-yarn products are widely used for economical greenhouse, nursery, farm and construction applications. Products can be customized by shade rate, fabric weight, color, width, roll length, edge finishing and UV level. The correct structure depends on crop or project requirements, wind exposure, installation span, ventilation and expected service life.
Common shade rates range from 30% to 95%. Typical widths range from 1 to 20 m, while thickness references commonly range from approximately 0.12 to 0.35 mm depending on yarn and fabric structure. Roll length can be customized according to production and packaging requirements. Lower shade rates are generally used where crops still require strong light, while higher shade rates are selected for sensitive plants, livestock areas or non-agricultural shading. Final selection should consider crop type, season, local radiation, temperature, ventilation and installation height.
Choose the shading rate according to the amount of solar radiation that must be reduced without limiting the crop’s light requirement. Vegetables and fruiting crops may need lower or medium shade levels, while nurseries, flowers and sensitive seedlings may require stronger shading. Very high shade rates can lower temperature but may also reduce photosynthesis and increase humidity if ventilation is poor. Buyers should compare local climate, crop stage, greenhouse cover, installation position and seasonal use. Testing a sample under actual conditions is more reliable than selecting a percentage from a catalogue alone.
Important quality checks include HDPE raw-material consistency, fabric weight, shade-rate accuracy, yarn structure, width, tensile strength, elongation, tear resistance, edge stability, color consistency, ventilation and UV-weathering performance. Relevant reference methods may include ASTM D5035 for tensile properties, ASTM D3776 or ISO 9864 for mass per unit area, and ISO 4892 or ASTM G154 for accelerated UV weathering. The inspection plan should be agreed before production because monofilament, tape-yarn and reinforced project nets may require different acceptance criteria.
Yes. OEM and ODM support can cover material structure, thickness, width, roll length, color, UV level, anti-drip, anti-fog, thermal or diffusion functions, label design and export packaging. Samples can be arranged to help buyers review basic appearance, thickness, transparency and specification suitability before a formal order. Sample availability, minimum order quantity and production time depend on the selected formulation, dimensions, packaging and order volume. These commercial details are confirmed during the quotation process so the proposal reflects the actual product and purchasing plan.
We welcome cooperation with greenhouse film importers, agricultural-material distributors, project suppliers and regional agents. For East African customers, selected specifications may be supported through our warehouse in Kenya, subject to current stock, roll size and order requirements. Other orders can be supplied from China according to the confirmed production and shipping plan. Agency discussions can cover target territory, product range, packaging, market positioning and expected sales support. Contact the sales team with your country and channel plan so the appropriate cooperation model can be evaluated.
Shade net, also called sun shade net or agricultural shade cloth, is a breathable HDPE covering designed to reduce solar radiation and heat while allowing air to circulate through the protected area. Monofilament structures provide dimensional stability and a cleaner yarn profile, while tape-yarn nets are widely used for economical agricultural and commercial shading. Buyers should compare shade rate, fabric weight, yarn structure, width, tensile strength, tear resistance, ventilation and UV service life. A higher shade percentage does not automatically mean better crop protection, because excessive light reduction can limit photosynthesis and increase humidity in poorly ventilated structures.
Production begins with HDPE resin blended with UV stabilizers, antioxidants and color masterbatch according to the required climate and service life. The material is extruded and drawn into monofilament yarn or flat tape yarn, then knitted or woven into the specified shade structure. The net is heat-set to improve dimensional stability before width, shade rate, surface appearance and edge quality are checked. Cutting, reinforced edging, eyelets, folding, rolling and packaging are completed according to the order. Process control focuses on yarn consistency, fabric weight, shade-rate accuracy, tensile performance, tear resistance, ventilation, width and UV-weathering stability.
Suitable for tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, leafy vegetables and other protected crops that need lower heat load and reduced sun stress. Shade rate should be matched to crop light requirements, season, greenhouse ventilation and local temperature.
Provides controlled light reduction for flowers, ornamental plants, seedlings and propagation areas. Lower or medium shade rates can be selected where soft light is needed without excessively limiting plant growth or increasing humidity.
Used above fruit trees, vineyards and berry crops to reduce sunburn risk and heat exposure. Wider rolls, stronger yarn structures and UV-stabilized formulations can be customized for larger spans, wind conditions and long-term outdoor installation.
Suitable for fish ponds, poultry areas and livestock shelters where reduced solar exposure and improved environmental comfort are required. Shade percentage, airflow, width and structural strength should be matched to the enclosure and climate.
Designed for parking structures, building sites, gardens, patios and other outdoor applications requiring shading, wind reduction or dust control. Reinforced edges, eyelets, custom colors and project-specific dimensions can be supplied for installation needs.
The recommendation considered our crop, local temperature, greenhouse ventilation and required shade percentage instead of simply offering the darkest net. The sample helped us compare airflow, yarn stability and actual shading before ordering.
We needed several shading rates, widths and colors for agricultural and outdoor customers. The OEM process made the specifications easier to separate and improved the roll labels for our distributor network.
The team explained the practical difference between monofilament and tape-yarn shade nets and how UV stabilization affects service life. That guidance helped us select a stronger structure for a commercial nursery project.
Share your target market, crop or outdoor application and purchasing plan so the sales team can identify the technical and commercial information required for a suitable recommendation.
Confirm shade rate, monofilament or tape structure, fabric weight, width, roll length, color, UV life, edge finishing, eyelets, packaging and estimated quantity.
Compare suitable shade-net structures according to light reduction, ventilation, strength, service life, installation method, budget and target market.
Arrange available samples or a specification sample to review shade level, yarn structure, color, fabric weight, width, edge quality and packaging presentation.
Evaluate the net under your greenhouse, nursery, farm or outdoor installation conditions and confirm shading, airflow, strength and fitting suitability before production.
Approve the final specification, quantity, private-label packaging and shipping details, then proceed with production, inspection and order execution.
