Shipping containers is a cost effective alternative to the conventional brick and mortar reception office. As these shipping container offices become increasingly popular, we regularly get requests for aesthetically pleasing shading solutions to compliment these quite bland structures.

Case in point is the Stand-up Paddle boarding (SUP) Cape Town clubhouse located on the canal next to the V&A Waterfront. RHI has enjoyed a longstanding relationship with owner Guy and his team, often making use of their SUP rental service.

Following a recent move from the club’s original location to make way for the Waterfront’s new expansion plans, RHI was commissioned to design, manufacture and install a functional, yet striking cover solution for their shipping container reception office. See more shade sail installations here.

We are proud of the result, and will let the pictures speak for themselves. For more information about how an RHI stretch tent can transform your business, get in touch with our experts.
