ColourTree 7ft x 11ft Beige Waterproof Shade Cloth with Grommets

In this review of the ColourTree 7' x 11' beige shade cloth the bottom line is simple: it is for pet owners who need a single cover that provides both sunblock and waterproof protection without bulky panels or complex installation. The reviewer found the fabric to be unexpectedly sturdy for a lightweight tarp and appreciated that the design combines 90% sunblock and waterproofing so dogs, poultry or small pets stay dry and shaded in mixed weather. It is best for outdoor kennels, pens or temporary shade needs where breathability and portability matter.

Key Features

• Dual protection: Provides both shade and waterproof coverage so pets remain comfortable and dry in sun or light rain without adding extra covers.
• Durable fabric: Made from 220 GSM 100% virgin polyethylene for reliable resistance to outdoor wear and longer service life than generic tarps.
• 90% sunblock: High sunblock rating greatly reduces direct solar heat and UV exposure to keep an enclosed area cooler.
• Portable design: Lightweight and easy to fold, making it convenient to move between kennels, trips or storage when not in use.
• Easy installation: Grommets along the edge allow quick attachment to most standard pet cages, fences or frames with minimal tools.
• Custom sizing available: Custom sizes made in the US are offered for nonstandard enclosures so users can get a better fit.

Who It's For

This shade cloth is ideal for dog owners, backyard breeders, poultry keepers and people with outdoor pet playpens who want a single, breathable cover that reduces heat and sheds rain. It suits users who need a portable, easy-to-fit solution for weekend travel, shows or temporary shading rather than a permanent roof structure.

Those who should look elsewhere include people needing full structural shelter in heavy storms, insulated covers for winter, or rigid roofing - this is a lightweight polyethylene cloth designed for shade and light waterproofing, not a permanent building material.

Pros & Cons
