Key Messages
Driven by details
We believe the best results are defined by the details.
Our meticulous approach to each project involves rigorous planning, drawing and documentation to ensure that every element works together to meet the demands of building owners, occupants and legislation
Delivered with integrity
Simply put, we do what we say. We stand by our reputation for absolute precision, creative problem-solving and long-lasting quality.
Like our people, our products are renowned for their integrity: fit-forpurpose, built to last and equal parts robust and elegant.
A comprehensive approach
Our expert team oversees design, manufacturing and installation, ensuring the process matches the result: seamless.
Our trademark comprehensive approach delivers confidence to architects, builders and clients alike that their project has been considered from all angles – and their products will be installed exactly as specified.
Enriching & enduring quality
Across our extensive range, every product is designed to enrich outdoor and indoor spaces, and manufactured to endure Australia’s broad spectrum of weather conditions from addressing solar gain to high winds.
Our commitment to quality is not only expressed in the superior materials or longevity of each product – it also underpins our professional service and expert advice
Engineered problem-solvingWe are driven by challenges, capable of complexity and – with our deep engineering knowledge – able to arrive at the most straightforward solution.
A love of problem-solving is at our core. This informs both the technical precision of our approach and the helpful nature of our service. It’s why we’re trusted by leading developers and building owners to deliver innovative shading systems on a large scale, as well as on private residences.
Customised comfort
We want your spaces to be enjoyed to the fullest – which is why our products are seamlessly integrated and can be programmed to ensure optimal comfort in every season.
Each product is custom-designed to draw natural light when needed, limit glare, minimise artificial light, improve visibility and reduce heating and cooling costs by maintaining a consistent temperature. Shade Factor solutions deliver extensive benefits for greater wellbeing
