Playground Shade Canopies

Children don't have fully developed pigment cells, so they burn faster and the damage lasts a lifetime. That's why Burke offers ShadePlay Canopies for all our Nucleus™, Intensity®, Series 3000 and Little Buddies® Play Systems. Below are some benefits to having ShadePlay Canopies on your park, recreation and school playgrounds.

• Provides 6 to 15 times more shade coverage than average playground roofs
• Up to 97% UV screening protection
• Play equipment surfaces stay cooler to the touch
• 80% water repellent
• Engineered to withstand 90 mph wind loads
• Available in 5 complementary colors:  Blue, Green, Sand, Yellow and Red 

ShadePlay Canopies feature vandal-resistant quick release fastening mechanisms that allow the canopy to be easily attached and removed, if necessary, due to severe storms or winter weather.
