We recently made some shade sails for a US-based friends ‘bach’ in Baja, Mexico. Its amazing where our products end up.
We used Monotec 370 in “Sherbet” – a lovely bright colour that really suits the setting.

Retractable Awning Recover
Another tired retractable awning has had new life breathed into it by a simple recover. New fabric and a change of colour made it look good as new and more modern.
Ziptrak with Removable Post
An all-weather outdoor room in a matter of seconds! Ziptrak’s offer the ultimate in protection from wind and rain and can be installed in such a way that they blend into the environment when not required.
Removable posts are a great option when you have a large open span that you don’t want permanently interrupted. Removable posts are only available on manually operated Ziptrak blinds.
These Ziptrak also have the optional full pelmet fitted. This fully encases the roller tube at the top for a cleaner installation and added protection for the blind when opened.
Ziptrak on Norfolk Island
We recently sent 13 Ziptrak screens to a customer of ours on Norfolk Island. They had bought traditional cafe-style blinds off us about 10 years ago and were after something that would stop the wind from getting around the edges of the screens. Ziptrak was the obvious choice!
Sundream Sail
We recently supplied a new shade sail as part of the recent refurbishment at Sierra Cafe – Botany. We used Hiraoka Sundream fabric to replace the existing sail which was tired and poorly fitting. Sundream has amazing light transmission properties while protecting from the UV and rain – and don’t forget that amazing colour. Pop down & grab a coffee to see it for yourself!
Ziptrak Blinds at Hunting Lodge
We recently returned to the Hunting Lodge to install Ziptrak outdoor blinds along the outside edge of the Oztech retractable pergola we installed last year during their renovation of The Barn.
Each of these blinds is 4 metres wide and 2.5 metres tall. We used Ferrari Soltis 86 mesh for the blind material. Soltis 86 has excellent properties for mesh outdoor blinds, especially larger ones like these – its best characteristics being its light weight and incredible strength and dimensional stability.
