Shading for all occasions *

Quikshade is a portable shelter two people can easily erect in 60 seconds. In either a tent or marquee style, they are ideal for community festivals, sports days, childcare centres, in fact whenever shading is required. Developed in Lismore, Northern NSW in 1985, the company prides itself on delivering 20 years of experience in the portable shade business.

Proudly Australian made and Australian owned, Quikshade Australia Pty Ltd delivers across the nation and overseas.

The Quikshade product is available in nine different sizes, many colours and is an excellent opportunity to use as a branding tool by including your Council name on the canopy. Other uses for Local Governments include protection for workers, shade at funerals, promotions, community activities, shade at Council pools, emergency situations, the list goes on.

What is unique about the Quikshade brand is the two models available in the range – the ‘Lightweight’ and the ‘Pro’. The Lightweight is more suited to recreational needs, and the Pro to more commercial or high end uses who put greater demands on their tents.

Both models use a very high grade aluminium but the Pro model has thicker inner legs, aluminium fixtures and larger strutts. It is a stronger, more durable product that works all day, every day. It can withstand many different operators and stronger weather conditions. It is reliable and fuss free.

Quikshade is currently being used by many Councils across Australia. For more information please visit www.quikshade.com.au.
