ColourTree 8' x 50' Black Fence Privacy Screen Windscreen — 170 GSM Heavy-Duty, 88% Blockage

The ColourTree 8' x 50' black privacy fence screen is a heavy-duty, 170 GSM HDPE windscreen designed to block visibility, reduce wind, and protect plants while fitting standard 8-foot chain-link fences.

This commercial-grade privacy fabric is made from 100% virgin high-density polyethylene (HDPE) treated with UV-stable compounds and laboratory-tested for long outdoor life. At an actual height of 7'9", the roll covers long fence runs with an 88%+ blockage rate, reinforced edges, and stainless grommets spaced for secure fastening. It’s offered with a three-year warranty and intended for residential, commercial, and agricultural uses where shade, privacy, or wind protection is needed.

How does this screen improve privacy and shade on my fence?

The ColourTree windscreen blocks most sightlines and reduces direct sunlight while still allowing airflow. Its dense woven structure provides around 88% visible blockage, making it effective at screening neighbors, streets, or construction zones without creating a solid barrier.

• 88%+ visibility blockage for effective screening
• Breathable weave lets air and water pass to prevent trapped moisture
• Actual height 7'9" to align with 8' fence posts
• Black color minimizes visual distraction and blends with many settings

Will this hold up to sun, wind, and outdoor wear?

The fabric uses virgin HDPE with UV-stabilized compounds and has passed extended UV exposure testing, meaning better resistance to fading, brittleness, and tearing than recycled materials. Reinforced 3-inch binding and stainless copper grommets help the screen survive higher winds when installed correctly.

• 170 GSM virgin HDPE for commercial-grade durability
• UV-stable treatment and 20,000-hour lab testing for longer life
• Stainless copper grommets spaced vertically 12" and horizontally 24" for even load distribution
• Reinforced edge binding to prevent fraying and tearing

How can I install and use the ColourTree windscreen?

Installation is simple: thread zip ties or stainless fasteners through the pre-placed grommets and attach to the fence. The screen is versatile — use it for privacy screening, shade cloth for plants, windbreaks for kennels or patios, and temporary site screens.

• Fasten with zip ties, metal ties, or stainless clips (zip ties not included)
• Grommet layout simplifies even tensioning and reduces wear points
• Suitable for chain-link, welded wire, and other fences or as greenhouse/plant shade
• Can be trimmed to size for custom installations; ColorTree offers custom sizing

What maintenance and warranty come with this fence screen?

Maintenance is minimal: occasional rinsing with a hose removes dirt and debris, and a visual check of grommets keeps fastenings secure. ColourTree backs the product with a three-year warranty and customer support for straightforward service and returns.

• Low maintenance — hose off to clean; let air-dry naturally
• Inspect grommets and binding annually for optimal longevity
• 3-year full warranty and ColourTree customer support included
• Made from non-recycled virgin HDPE for consistent strength and performance

Who is this for? The ColourTree 8' x 50' black privacy screen is aimed at homeowners, landscapers, garden centers, construction sites, and small farms needing a cost-effective, durable privacy and shade solution. It’s especially appropriate when you want a breathable barrier that reduces visibility and wind without trapping moisture — ideal for plant protection, pet enclosures, pool areas, patios, and temporary site screening. If you need a longer-lasting, UV-tested alternative to recycled fence fabrics with robust grommets and reinforced edges, this screen is made for those uses.
