Benefits of Sun Sails
When you add a sun sail to your backyard, these are the benefits you can expect to enjoy:
Extra Ventilation
Adding a shade sail to your outdoor space can help cool the area and improve the ventilation. Since most sun sails are made from a semi-permeable fabric, they allow cool air to circulate in while keeping the direct sunlight out. This helps keep your patio space at a more comfortable temperature.
Protection From the Sun
Soaking in vitamin D from the sun is great for your health, but too much sun exposure can be harmful. Adding a sun sail to your backyard helps protect you from dangerous UV rays while still letting you enjoy the relaxing feeling of basking in the sun.
Versatility
Our customers love sun sails because they are easy to set up and move around if needed. They also come in a variety of styles, designs, and colors, making them a more versatile option compared to other outdoor shade solutions.

When selecting the perfect sun sail for your needs, you’ll have two important decisions to make: which fabric to use and the color. Most sun sails come in the following fabric options:
Polyester
Less resistant to damage, but generally more budget-friendly.
Polypropylene
More resistant to damage and a good mid-range option.
High-density polyethylene
Very resistant to damage and a higher-end option

These fabrics come in almost any color imaginable, helping you create an aesthetically pleasing outdoor space.
Keep in mind that lighter shades will reflect more sunlight, helping to keep your patio area cooler on hot days. Darker shades, on the other hand, offer better protection from UV rays. Some of the most popular sun sail colors include:
- White
- Black
- Navy
- Yellow
- Dark gray

Retractable Balcony Shades
For a more permanent shade option in your backyard, consider installing a retractable balcony shade, which allows you to easily put out or retract your shade depending on the weather outside.
We proudly install motorized retractable balcony shades, which are easy to use and maintain, durable even after years of high sun exposure, and crafted with built-in UV resistance.
