Effective shade can be a hard concept to both grasp and apply to your outdoor area. Most customers are under the assumption that all shade sails offer effective shading, however this isn’t always the case. Protection is constantly varying according to the angle of the sun; changing the amount of area covered properly.
How do I Choose the Right Shade Sail?
When it comes to selecting the right shade sail, you need to consider shading and UV blocking capabilities. In order to maximize UV protection, a shade sail needs to have a tight and sturdy design to protect from all elements. If a shade sail is made from a sagging or stretchy fabric, it’s more likely to flap in strong winds, become loose and weaken. Over time, more of the sun’s harsh rays will come through – diminishing the protective properties of your shade sail.
