Why Build a Brix Shelter

Advanced Orchard Shelter Systems

Every orchard is different, so we don’t take a one-size-fits-all approach. Our orchard shelter systems are designed and installed to suit the unique demands of each site.

Whether it’s high wind exposure, complex terrain, or custom bay sizing, Brix delivers shelter infrastructure that is practical, durable, and built for the long haul.

  • Fully sewn shelter system with industrial UV-rated stitching
  • Seasonally re-tensionable design for long-term performance
  • Undercanopy deadman anchoring with full stay cable support
  • Expert advice on placement, porosity, and shelter sizing

Engineered to reduce wind damage, minimise wear points, and maintain tension over time, our shelter systems are designed for durability in real orchard conditions.
