ColourTree CTAPRT10 19ft x 19ft x 19ft Black Triangle Sun Shade Sail

In this review the ColourTree 19' x 19' x 19' black triangle sun shade sail is evaluated for homeowners and small businesses who need reliable sun protection. The bottom line: the sail stands out for its heavy 190 GSM virgin HDPE fabric and laboratory-proven UV resistance, making it a strong choice when durability and effective sun blockage matter most. Installation requires separate hardware, but once mounted the shade delivers consistent cooling and privacy for patios, pools and carports.

Key Features

• 190 GSM Virgin HDPE: Thick, non-recycled fabric offers a sturdy feel and resists tearing for long-term outdoor use.
• UV Stabilized Compound: Lab-tested for 20000 hours, the material resists fading and drying out to extend usable life in strong sun.
• 95% UV Blockage: Blocks the majority of harmful UV rays and noticeably reduces heat in shaded areas during summer.
• Breathable Woven Fabric: Allows air and water to pass through so rain does not pool and ventilation is preserved under the sail.
• Reinforced Edges and D-rings: Double layered stitched seams and stainless steel D-rings provide secure attachment points and reduce fraying.
• 3 Year Limited Warranty: Warranty covers normal weather and usage, offering added confidence for buyers.

Who It's For

This shade sail is best for homeowners, pool owners, and small commercial spaces seeking a heavy duty, long-life sun screen. Its high UV blockage and thick 190 GSM virgin material suit locations with intense sun exposure where color retention and fabric strength are priorities.

It is less suitable for buyers who expect hardware included or who need a do-it-all kit; installation requires separate shade sail hardware and cable ropes, and users should avoid nylon rope and instead select recommended marine-grade cable and fittings.
