For schools sun protection for your outdoor equipment is a top priority. Outdoor play is healthy and beneficial for children, but it’s important to shield them from the harmful rays of the sun.

FTH provides a wide range of shade structures to cover your school’s playground equipment, bleachers, courtyards, and other outdoor play areas. In fact, we’re known as the leading provider of shade structures for schools. With the protection of our canopies and shade structures, students can enjoy more time outdoors, even during the hottest months of the year.

Benefits of School Shade Structures

Shade structures can protect your students and your property in a number of ways. A few key benefits include:

·         Protecting children from the sun’s dangerous UV rays

·         Extending the lifespan of outdoor playground equipment

·         Reducing temperatures of playground equipment to allow longer outdoor play times during hot weather

Sun protection isn’t just for school playgrounds: It’s also an ideal choice for bleachers, school pickup areas and any outdoor play space on a school’s premises.

Skin cancer is the most common cancer when exposed to high temperatures, but it’s a preventable disease. A cool, shaded area keeps children comfortable and protects them from the UV exposure that can lead to skin cancer.
