Aluminium Shading 2.1m wide 50% Shading Per Sq Metre

For external use. A woven nylon netting with aluminium stripes and gaps. The aluminium reflects the sunlight away, reducing internal temperatures with the gaps producing a dappled shade inside. The material is white inside which reflects the light around the house and lasts for years.
Available in three shade levels 50, 60 and 70%. 50% is the most commonly used. The material can be supplied in any length of stripe to the nearest meter. The stripe runs the length of the greenhouse or conservatory. There are two widths 2.1 or 4.2mtrs which goes from ridge to gutter or bench.

The best shading we've found. Reducing temperatures but maintaining good light levels.

agree rkillings: prefer 'aluminised' -- it's probably fabric.

aluminized sun blind

Explanation:
"Aluminized" because it is not actually aluminium, probably a metallized plastic sheet or fabric;
"sun" because it keeps out the sun's light (ombrage) and heat (thermique) and because we are not talking about keeping prying eyes out at night when inside lights are on;
"blind" because it "condenses" in some way, as ref. to cables suggests.

No mention of "amovible" because that's what blinds generally do rather well.
