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.
Outdoor shade solutions Riyadh refers to purpose-designed tensile and fabric shading systems tailored for Riyadh's climate — intense UV, scorching summer heat and periodic sand-laden winds. Architects, contractors and facility managers specify these systems for car parks, schools, stadiums and pedestrian walkways where solar control, occupant comfort and durability are priorities. CI Shade supplies full-service packages that include PVDF or PVC membrane selection, engineered steel frames and Gulf-stamped calculations right from concept to handover.
We operate across Saudi Arabia and Bahrain with 23+ years of experience and an 8,000 m² production facility. ISO-certified processes and Aramco-approved workflows shape how we engineer, fabricate and install every project.
Choose solutions that are specified for the Gulf, not generic kits. CI Shade engineers the structure to handle wind loads between 120–175 kph where required, pairs membranes like PVDF (15–20 year service life expectation) or PVC with hot-dip galvanised and painted steel, and produces shop drawings and stamped calculations you can submit with tender documents. We control design, manufacturing and installation so the finished shade matches the architectural intent and survives Riyadh conditions.
Heat and UV are relentless here; fabrics must resist UV degradation and retain tensile strength after years of exposure. We specify high-tension PVDF-coated membranes for long-term UV resistance and use reinforced edge details to prevent stress concentrations during sand events. Wind design follows Gulf-stamped wind cases and site-specific load combinations.
CI Shade engineers in-house using CAD and SolidWorks for complex geometries, performs fabric patterning, and issues construction documents with stamped calculations. That matters because what looks simple on paper requires precise pattern cuts and bespoke connection details to avoid wrinkles, ponding or premature wear.
Outdoor shade solutions Riyadh are applied across public, commercial and private sectors where shade and protection are needed without sacrificing form.
We produce stamped engineering calculations (120–175 kph where required) and detailed shop drawings that meet local consultants' expectations. That reduces RFIs and keeps procurement and approvals moving on schedule.
Our 8,000 m² production facility handles cutting, welding and pre-assembly to tight tolerances, lowering on-site hours and improving quality control. The result: faster installs and fewer site disruptions for busy Riyadh projects.
We work with PVC, PVDF-coated membranes, HDPE and specialty materials like ETFE and PTFE where the project demands. Steelwork is typically S275/S355 hot-dip galvanised and optionally fluoropolymer- or powder-coated; connection details use high-strength bolts and sealed bearing plates. Our project flow is straightforward: site survey, concept sketch, detailed CAD/SolidWorks model, fabric patterning, factory fabrication, supervised installation and a post-installation inspection with maintenance schedule.
Membrane lifespans vary with material and exposure — PVDF often provides an expected 15–20 year surface performance under Gulf UV when specified and maintained correctly. We recommend scheduled inspections twice a year, cleaning protocols to avoid abrasive sand accumulation and immediate repair of localized damage to preserve structural and aesthetic performance. CI Shade offers maintenance contracts and warranty support aligned with project requirements.
