Our Range of Healthcare Canopies & Shelters

Flexible, robust and easy to maintain, our Spaceshade® canopies and shade sails are ideal for hospitals and healthcare establishments of all types.

Anti-Ligature Healthcare Canopies

Anti-Ligature Canopies

A canopy cannot be entirely ligature-free, but you can minimise ligature risk. With safety features such as a non-fragile roof, built-in gutters, concealed downpipes and non-exposed bolts or fixings, a Spaceshade® canopy is well-suited suited to high-risk environments like mental health facilities.

Enclosed Canopies

All-Weather Outdoor Spaces for Hospitals

Enclosed canopies with additional side walls or infill panels help to protect patients and staff when outside. Choose from glass, polycarbonate or solid side walls, with the option to add doors or openings to suit your needs. Our Spaceshade canopies also allow for lighting and heaters to be seamlessly integrated into the design.

In a mental health environment, incorporating infill panels to the sides of a Spaceshade canopy decreases potential ligature risk further. 

Spending time outside is known to boost mood and overall health and wellbeing - allow your patients and staff to experience the benefits in a sheltered, weather-protected environment.
