I bought it from http://www.argosee.com.au/ but there web site hasn't been updated for some time so you would need to ring them. I think it is available in 25% , 50% and 75% and it is is a fair bit dearer than normal shade cloth but it is supposed to be so much better as far shade and light levels go and it is also very light weight and has some stretch to it. I would have used it on the out side as well but I value my testicles to much so I went for the standard green. :)

I think I paid $38 per lineal meter but the roll was quite wide so I didn't need to many meters.

Fitting the shade cloth on the inside has reduced my max temp in the green house to 45deg were the max was 50+ ( thermometer don't go above 50deg ) on 40+ deg days.

When I was in there for a few hours on the week end the temp inside was only a few deg higher than in the shade outside so I am happy with that. Once it starts to cool down I will draw the inside shade cloth back to let the heat in and pull it back over again next autumn/summer.

Cheers
