DESIGNED FOR PUBLIC & COMMUNITY PROJECTS

Public and community spaces need to be practical, durable and designed to handle everyday use by a wide range of people.

 

SolarShield provides engineered canopy systems that create sheltered spaces for gathering, recreation, movement and public amenity. From community facilities and recreation areas to covered walkways, entrances and shared spaces, our standardised systems can be configured to suit the site, the facility and how the space will be used — giving councils, architects, builders and installers a defined product without the complexity of starting from scratch on every project.

​

  • Standardised — Defined systems and components provide consistency across public and community projects.

  • Configurable — Span, length, height, roofing and layout can be adapted to suit the site and application.

  • Engineered — Structural solutions are developed around the requirements of the site and project, with PS1 engineering available where required.

  • Practical — Designed for efficient installation, straightforward detailing and everyday public use.

  • Durable — Robust galvanised steel construction with polycarbonate, Webglas and Coloursteel roofing options.

  • Low maintenance — Practical materials and robust construction designed for demanding, high-use environments.

  • Easy to specify — A defined product range gives architects, councils, builders and installers a clear solution to work with.

  • Built for delivery — SolarShield supplies the engineered system, with installation completed by the project’s builder or installation contractor.
