15 years of Building Shade

  • Heavy Concrete Base: The structure is anchored by a massive concrete base weighing over 3 tons which provides stability in high winds.
  • Durable Frame: Built “Strobel Strong,” the frame features a central post (ranging from 5″x5″ to 6″x6″ depending on size) and is equipped with through forklift pockets and recessed chain eyelets for easier relocation.
  • Shur-co® Mesh Tarp: The two-piece shade uses an exclusive 70% sunblock mesh tarp that provides significant sun protection while allowing for superior airflow. The 20‘ x 20’ design features a one-piece tarp design.
  • Self-Storing Design: The tarp is designed to be easily rolled up manually and stored directly on the frame during winter months to protect it from snow buildup.
  • Ratchet Tension Straps: Sturdy straps at each corner secure the tarp to the frame, ensuring it remains taut and can withstand harsh weather conditions.
  • Available Sizes: It comes in various sizes, most notably a 40′ x 40′ model (1,600 sq. ft.) capable of servicing over 100 head of cattle, as well as a  30′ x 30’ which can accommodate 50 head of cattle and a 20’ x 20’ rated for approximately 25 head of cattle or 50 goats.

Strobel Super Shades provide a portable, heavy-duty solution to protect herds from solar radiation, with research showing they can lower ground temperatures by 35 to 45 degrees.

Key Use-Cases:

  • Pasture & Feedlot Cooling: Reducing heat stress in open areas where natural shade is unavailable, supporting consistent weight gain.
  • Rotational Grazing: Easily relocating shade structures using built-in forklift pockets to follow the herd across different pastures.
  • Multi-Species Protection: Providing a cooling sanctuary for cattle, horses, sheep, and goats in both commercial operations and small acreages.
The Strobel Shade is a game changer for grazing operations. Our portable design makes it easy to move the shade right along with your herd as they rotate through pastures.

 

Built “Strobel Strong,” these shades feature a 6,500lb concrete base for high-wind stability and a self-storing, two-piece mesh tarp that rolls up for easy winter storage. Whether you are managing a large-scale feedlot or a private ranch, Strobel’s mobile shade systems are an essential investment in animal health and operational efficiency.
