 Creating Shade
Shade Sail
Coolaroo
The material used to create these outdoor shades block up to 90% of the sun's harmful UV rays. However, the material remains totally unaffected by moisture and natural temperature extremes. Because the fabric is knitted instead of woven, it won't tear or fray due to its increased strength. Available in triangle and square sail shades.
