Choice International Shade (CI Shade) - the Gulf Region's leading experts in high-quality tensile and structural shading solutions. Based in Saudi Arabia and Bahrain.
As an acrylic canopy supplier Dammam organisations turn to when they need transparent, weather-resistant overhead protection, CI Shade designs and delivers systems that balance light transmission with durability. Architects, facility managers and contractors specify acrylic canopies for entrances, walkways and retail fronts because they provide weather cover without blocking daylight.
CI Shade manufactures in Saudi Arabia and Bahrain and supports projects across the GCC. We produce Gulf-stamped engineering, off-site fabrication at our 8,000 m2 facility and on-site installation backed by ISO and Aramco approvals.
We supply acrylic canopies engineered for Gulf conditions. That matters because Dammam's intense UV, heat and occasional high winds impose different requirements than temperate climates. CI Shade combines material selection, stamped calculations and quality-controlled fabrication so the canopy performs year after year.
We design canopies to meet Gulf wind-load expectations and provide stamped calculations for 120–175 kph where the project demands it. Acrylic sheets we specify are UV-stable and commonly used in 6–12 mm thickness ranges depending on span and solar requirements. Steel supporting frames are hot-dip or powder-coated to resist coastal corrosion.
CI Shade engineers every canopy in CAD and SolidWorks, patterns the acrylic, and produces shop drawings ready for client and consultant review. We work with architects to integrate drainage, lighting and fixing details. If value engineering is needed we propose alternatives but always preserve structural integrity.
Acrylic canopies suit many uses. We supply to public and private sector clients who need clear, durable shelter that complements modern façades.
We produce acrylic canopies in an 8,000 m² off-site facility in the Gulf. That gives tighter quality control, shorter lead times and better coordination between fabrication and installation teams.
CI Shade provides Gulf-stamped engineering, ISO-certified processes and Aramco-approved delivery on qualifying projects. We issue construction drawings, connection details and lifting plans as part of standard delivery.
Acrylic canopies are typically acrylic sheet fixed to a secondary steel frame. CI Shade offers UV-stabilised acrylic panel options and coordinates with structural engineers to specify frame sections, bolt grades and protective coatings. We also provide alternative fabric options (PVC, PVDF, HDPE) where translucency or flexibility is required — see our products for details.
Acrylic resists yellowing if UV-stabilised and cleaned correctly. Maintenance is straightforward: regular rinsing, occasional soft-brush cleaning and periodic inspection of fixings and sealants. CI Shade provides maintenance programmes and warranty support that cover both the canopy panels and steelwork.
