ColourTree Custom 13 ft x 13 ft x 18.4 ft Turquoise Right Triangle Sun

In this review the ColourTree custom right triangle sun shade sail is evaluated for backyard and commercial shade needs; it is best for homeowners, poolside patios, and small business outdoor areas that need reliable UV protection and a durable, breathable fabric. The single biggest reason to buy is the heavy 190 GSM virgin HDPE material treated with a UV stabilized compound, which delivers long-term fade and tear resistance compared with recycled fabrics while still allowing air and water to pass through.

Key Features

• 190 GSM virgin HDPE: Thick, non-recycled fabric provides a strong, stable canopy that resists tearing and stretching under sun exposure.
• UV stabilized compound: Laboratory-tested material resists drying out and fading, extending usable life in high-sun locations.
• 95% UV blockage: The woven fabric significantly reduces UV sunlight and ambient temperature in shaded areas for more comfortable outdoor use.
• Breathable design: The weave allows air and water to pass through so rain does not pool and ventilation remains good beneath the sail.
• Reinforced construction: Double layered stitched seams and stainless steel D-rings provide strong attachment points and help prevent frayed edges.
• Commercial heavy duty build: Sized 13 ft x 13 ft x 18.4 ft and made for frequent outdoor use, with a 3 year limited warranty.

Who It's For

This shade sail is ideal for homeowners with a patio, balcony, carport, or pool area who need a durable, long-lasting canopy that reduces heat and harmful UV. It also works well for small commercial installs where a heavy duty fabric and reinforced corners are important for daily exposure.

People who want a temporary, low-cost seasonal cover or who require a fully waterproof canopy should look elsewhere; this sail is breathable and designed to shed water rather than act as a waterproof tarp. Also note that hardware is sold separately, so buyers should plan for proper mounting cables and fittings to match their installation.

Pros & Cons

• Breathable fabric prevents water pooling during rain events and reduces maintenance.
