Accidents happen, but we know we all need to be proactive in preventing harm in the first place.
An unintended consequence of having exposed poles and shade sail posts near play areas is the risk that a child may run into one by accident.
Pole pads are the perfect precautionary measure to make play areas a much safer zone. At Sunshade we have installed many such pole pads, and recommend them on every shade sail project in play spaces.
Made from soft foam and wrapped in a robust PVC covering, they are then fitted securely by zip to cover the exposed poles. The zip, instead of velcro, makes the attachment to the pole much more secure, and we can work with you on any ideas you may have for custom fittings.
With the addition of pole pads to your play areas, the impact of any harm from collision is significantly reduced. Our expert installers are here to work with you on your needs and budget, and make the process easy.
