Made from 100% new high-density polyethylene (HDPE) with no spliced seams, the fabric balances sun blockage with ventilation so heat does not build up under the canopy. The sail is available in the standard 8' x 16' size and can be custom ordered to fit irregular spaces. Included with the sail are reinforced ropes, and SUNNY GUARD recommends stainless-steel mounting hardware for long-term stability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow much sun protection will this shade sail provide?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe fabric is rated to block up to 95% of harmful UV rays while still allowing air to pass through.
