ColourTree Custom Size 12ft x 12ft x 17ft Turquoise Right Triangle Sun

In this review the ColourTree 12' x 12' x 17' turquoise right triangle sun shade is evaluated for homeowners and small commercial users seeking a durable, highcoverage canopy. The bottom line: this shade sail stands out for its heavy 190 GSM virgin HDPE fabric and proven UV stability, making it a smart choice when long term sun protection and colorfast performance matter. It is most useful where strong, breathable UV blockage is needed without pooling water or frequent replacement.

Key Features

• 190 GSM virgin HDPE: The thick, nonrecycled fabric offers a substantial feel and resists tearing better than lighter sails.
• UV stabilized compound: Lab testing of the virgin material shows extended life under sun exposure, reducing fading and brittleness.
• 95% UV blockage: The woven fabric cuts most harmful UV and lowers temperature under the canopy for more comfortable outdoor use.
• Breathable and water tolerant: The weave lets air and rain pass through so water does not pool and ventilation remains good beneath the sail.
• Reinforced edges and Drings: Double layered stitched seams and stainless steel Drings provide secure attachment points for tensioned installations.
• 3 year limited warranty: The included warranty offers buyer reassurance under normal weather and usage conditions.

Who It's For

This shade sail is ideal for homeowners, cafes, daycare centers, and small businesses looking for a durable, colorfast canopy to cover patios, pools, carports or balconies. The heavy 190 GSM material and UV stabilization make it suited to locations with intense sun where longevity is a priority.

It is less appropriate for temporary or purely decorative needs where a lightweight, inexpensive fabric would suffice, and buyers who lack sturdy anchor points should plan for professional or heavy duty hardware since installation kits are sold separately.
