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.
PTFE fabric structures Makkah are tensile membrane roofs and canopies made from PTFE-coated woven glass fibre. They span large areas with minimal columns, provide solar protection and keep ventilation paths open — useful for mosques, open-air courtyards and covered walkways. Architects and facility managers specify PTFE when long-term weather resistance and architectural expression matter.
CI Shade engineers, manufactures and installs PTFE membrane systems across Saudi Arabia and Bahrain. With 23+ years in the region and Gulf-stamped engineering for 120–175 kph wind loads, we handle the full package from shop drawings to completion.
PTFE membrane combines extremely low dirt pickup with high UV stability, making it a pragmatic choice for the Gulf climate. CI Shade pairs that material performance with stamped calculations, SolidWorks modelling and shop-floor quality control so the finished canopy meets both form and code. The result is a covered space that cools by shading, resists sand abrasion and maintains visual lightness.
We design for intense UV, heat cycling and occasional sandstorms. PTFE tolerates higher temperatures than many polymer membranes and keeps tensile properties over long exposures. Every structure is engineered to client load cases and sealed with Gulf-stamped calculations for wind ratings from 120–175 kph where required.
CI Shade uses CAD and SolidWorks for form-finding and fabric patterning, then produces fully-detailed shop drawings and fabrication nests. We work with architects from conceptual sketches to construction documents, and our off-site manufacturing means tighter tolerances and faster site installation.
PTFE fabric structures fit a wide range of projects across Makkah and the wider GCC. They are especially effective where large, column-free shading or dramatic architectural roofs are required.
CI Shade is ISO certified and Aramco approved. We supply PTFE membranes that meet recognised tensile membrane standards and provide Gulf-stamped engineering for regional wind and seismic requirements.
Our 8,000 m² production facility supports large-span assemblies and precision fabric patterning. Off-site manufacturing reduces site hours, improves quality control and shortens programme risk for busy projects in Makkah and across Saudi Arabia.
PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) coated glass fibre is the primary material for these structures; CI Shade also works with PVC, PVDF, HDPE and ETFE where project briefs demand alternatives. Structural frames are specified in structural steel with industry-standard protective coatings; common finishes include hot-dip galvanising and two-coat paint systems depending on client preference. Our process follows a clear sequence: site survey, structural analysis, patterning, off-site fabrication and controlled installation.
PTFE membranes are designed for multi-decade service with minimal maintenance — periodic inspections, drainage checks and occasional pressure-wash cleaning keep them performing. CI Shade offers maintenance programmes and warranty support, with field service teams operating in Saudi Arabia and Bahrain to handle scheduled inspections and repairs.
