I shade my tainers with a bamboo roll up shade I bought several years ago at H.D. They will stand up on their side and wrap around those large totes earthtainers are made from. They have held up in outdoor conditions for 3-4 years now and are still fine. They may not be scaled well for you container, but, if you can find one that is, they are effective.
