Sail Shade World factory, sail making area. Note the large space for laying out shade sails.
A long time ago when we had 4 sizes and 4 colours we used these cartons for packing.
Now with 28 sizes and 34 colours it is impractical to have a box for each size and colour so we use Polypropylene mesh to protect and wrap the shade sails for delivery.
Pre-Made Shade Sails
Our Commercial grade pre-made made sails are identical in all ways to our Custom shade sails, but they are cheaper because they are made from templates.Our shade sails should not be compared with cheap imitations which often use inferior materials without adequate UV stabilizers, leading to quick fading, material weakening, and insufficient UV protection, resulting in a much shorter lifespan.
Tension is important to get a long life out of a shade sail. Our sails made with a shade cloth weight exceeding 300GM² can all be highly tensioned and mounted permanently. For the pre-made shade sails we offer a lightweight version which should not to be used for tensioned permanent installation. It should be taken down in bad weather and stored through the winter months but, if well cared for, will have a useful life of 10 years or more.
With 28 sizes we have a much large size choice than any other maker and more colors. The Commercial shade sails have 20 colors and the Lightweight have 9. Click below to see the prices, to purchase you will be sent to SHADE-SAILS.com, our website dedicated to the Pre-made shade sails.
PRE-MADE CATALOGUE
SOMETHING TOTALLY DIFFERENT!
At Sail Shade World our pricing formula is fair to the customer and fair to us as a business. We are not in a price war with our competitors we just do what is right. Our experience, efficiency, low overhead and good management means that we are always less than our competitors, who also make very good shade sails.
Comparing Sail Shade World prices with same or similar fabric, same accessories, webbing not cable, delivery costs and taxes to be paid will inevitably show you a very good saving.

IT'S ALL ABOUT WHAT YOU KNOW!
Here we have created a environment where you can learn all about custom shade sails and pre-made shade sails so that your purchase and installation will be a great success.At it's most basic it should be very simple, just dig some holes, put poles in the ground and stretch some fabric between them. Job done!
What we will tell you is much the same except you need to be aware of
- what type of poles to use
- what size for the poles according to size of the sail and prevailing wind conditions.
- How deep should the poles be (based on above)
- positioning the shade sail to get best shade effect
- working out the distance of the poles relative to the size of the shade sail
- Is it better for your space to have 3 triangles, 2 square sails or a single sail with 8 mounting points?
- What fabric to choose based on what looks good, UV protection, size and load
- .. there is more...
