Shade Sails
Outdoor area too hot? Need to protect kids from UV exposure? Straitline® has decades of experience manufacturing Shade Sails for the Manawatu climate. We custom design each Shade Sail to suit your needs. We use a chain & shackle tensioning system, for easy installation and to avoid binding issues common with turnbuckles.
We use Australian-made Shadetex Shade Mesh, available in 370 Premium or 320 Standard grade. Shadetex reduces UV exposure by 85-95% and comes with a 15 year (370) or 13 year (320) UV guarantee. We also offer Extrablock 330, which offers maximum UV protection (reducing UV exposure by 96-98%) and comes with a 12 year UV guarantee.
All our shade sails are made using UV-resistant PTFE thread, guaranteed to resist UV for the life of the fabric. Straitline® guarantee the workmanship on our Shade Sails for the life of the Shade Sail.
Full service installation available - shade sails and poles. We service Palmerston North, Manawatu, Feilding, Ashhurst, Bulls, and Whanganui.
