Don’t settle for generic mesh. Discover why Permascreen 70 is the durable, professional standard for high school and tournament tennis windscreens. Get a quote for the 2026 season.
It’s December, and while the courts may be quiet, smart Athletic Directors and facility managers are already deep into planning for the Spring 2026 season.
If you have been typing generic terms like “tennis windscreens” into search engines looking for replacements, you know the frustration. The results are flooded with cheap, imported polypropylene options that look okay on day one, but tear, fade, and sag after the first major storm or season of intense UV exposure.
Your facility deserves better than a temporary fix. It deserves the industry standard.
At All Court Fabrics, our data shows that when facility managers look for long-term value, they choose Permascreen 70. Here is why Permascreen 70 remains our most popular choice for high schools, universities, and professional tournaments across the US.
1. Durability That Outlasts the Competition
The primary reason courts have to replace screens every two years is material failure. Standard open mesh windscreens are often made of raw polypropylene, which becomes brittle under constant sun exposure.
Permascreen 70 is engineered differently. It is a vinyl-coated polyester (VCP). This coating acts as a heavy-duty shield against UV rays and extreme weather. It won’t crack, peel, or become brittle like lesser materials. When you invest in Permascreen 70, you are investing in a product built for multiple seasons of hard use, not just a single spring.
2. The Perfect Balance of Privacy and Airflow
A major challenge in selecting tennis court privacy screens is balancing visibility with wind loads.
- If the mesh is too open, players get distracted by activity outside the court, and wind interferes with ball flight.
- If the mesh is too closed (too solid), a heavy wind gust can act like a sail, damaging the screen and potentially your fences.
Permascreen 70 hits the “sweet spot” used by pros. It provides 70% opacity, offering excellent privacy and background contrast for players to track the ball, while still allowing enough air passage to reduce stress on your fencing infrastructure.
3. The Best Surface for Custom School Branding
We are seeing a surge in facilities looking for custom tennis windscreens featuring logos and lettering. If you want to showcase school spirit or highlight tournament sponsors, the material matters.
Because of its smooth, vinyl-coated surface, Permascreen 70 takes digital printing better than almost any other athletic screen. The ink bonds securely to the vinyl, resulting in vibrant, sharp logos that don’t flake off. Whether you need a simple “HOME OF THE WILDCATS” or complex, multi-color tournament branding, Permascreen 70 makes your courts look professional.
