Our story

Shadewing is a Western Australian innovation built from more than 20 years behind the wheel.

After two decades in trucks, one problem never went away — the sun coming through the driver’s side window. Tint helped a bit. Pull-down blinds helped a bit. But nothing actually solved it.

What I wanted was simple: the ability to keep my window down without the sun in my face, out of my eyes, and off my body during the hottest parts of the day whilst still have a clear line of sight to my mirror. I didn’t want to be forced to wind the window up just to escape the heat and glare — I wanted that to be a choice.

And I wasn’t the only one. Drivers everywhere were dealing with the same issue — trying to hide from the sun, blocking it with any manner they could foil, cloth, etc being wound up in the window, driver just don’t want to have to squint through glare, weather that be through the window, off the dash and mirror, or even getting flash-blinded when reversing in the morning and afternoon.

When I went looking for a solution, nothing existed. So I built one.

Shadewing was created to solve the last unresolved problem of the driver’s side window. No shade nets. No makeshift fixes. Just adjustable, functional shade designed for real-world conditions.

It does exactly what it was built to do: reduce direct and reflective glare, lower heat inside the cab, and improve visibility during critical moments throughout the day — all while letting drivers keep their window down if they choose.

Shadewing isn’t just a safety feature. It’s a tool. One built by a driver, for drivers, to make long days behind the wheel safer, more comfortable, and more controlled.
