17 ft x 22 ft x 27.8 ft Grey Right Triangle Sun Shade Sail - Heavy

In this review the ColourTree CTAPRT10 shade sail is evaluated for homeowners and small commercial sites that need strong, long-lasting sun protection in a triangular footprint. The bottom line: the appeal is its heavy 190 GSM 100% virgin HDPE fabric and proven UV stability, which together deliver dependable 95% UV blockage and a fabric that resists fading and tearing after extended sun exposure. If you need a durable shade that breathes and drains while keeping temperatures down, this sail addresses those priorities.

Key Features

• 190 GSM Virgin HDPE: The dense, non-recycled fabric provides a stiffer, more durable canopy that resists wear better than recycled alternatives.
• UV Stabilized Compound: Laboratory testing up to long durations shows the fabric is formulated to resist drying out, tearing and fading under strong sunlight.
• 95% UV Blockage: The woven fabric significantly reduces harmful UV and lowers ambient temperature in the shaded area for patios, pools and carports.
• Breathable, Water-Permeable Weave: The mesh allows air and rainwater to pass through so there is no pooling and no extra drainage hardware required.
• Reinforced Edges and D-Rings: Double layered stitched seams and stainless steel D-rings at corners provide secure anchor points and reduce fraying over time.
• Three Year Limited Warranty: Coverage under normal weather and usage gives extra assurance for residential and light commercial installations.

Who It's For

The sail is well suited for homeowners, poolside areas, patios, balconies and small commercial outdoor seating who need a robust shade solution that lasts. Installers who prefer a breathable fabric that reduces heat while allowing water runoff will find the design practical.

It is less appropriate for customers seeking a temporary or very lightweight decorative cover, or for those who require integrated hardware; installation hardware and cables are sold separately and professional mounting is recommended for large or exposed sites.
