ColourTree Custom Size 8 ft x 11 ft x 13.6 ft Grey Right Triangle

Our review of the ColourTree custom size right triangle shade sail finds it best suited for homeowners and small commercial spaces that need reliable sun protection with minimal upkeep. The single biggest reason to buy is the fabric: a 190 GSM 100% virgin HDPE that has been UV stabilized and laboratory tested for long-term sun exposure, so it resists fading and tearing where lesser recycled fabrics fail. Installers will appreciate the reinforced edges and stainless steel D-rings, while anyone shading a patio, pool or carport will notice a clear drop in temperature and strong UV blockage.

Key Features

• 190 GSM Virgin HDPE: Thicker, non-recycled fabric provides stronger tear resistance and longer life under constant sun exposure.
• UV Stabilized Compound: Fabric treated and lab tested to resist fading and drying, extending usable lifespan compared with recycled alternatives.
• 95% UV Blockage: Blocks the majority of harmful UV and noticeably reduces heat in shaded areas for patios, pools and carports.
• Breathable Woven Fabric: Allows air and water to pass through so rain does not pool and the shade remains cooler and low-maintenance.
• Reinforced Construction: Double layered stitched seams and extra heavy corner stitching with stainless steel D-rings ensure durable anchor points.
• 3 Year Limited Warranty: Manufacturer warranty covers normal weather and usage for added peace of mind.

Who It's For

This shade sail is ideal for homeowners, small business owners and property managers who need a robust, long-lasting shade solution for patios, swimming pools, balconies or carports. The heavier 190 GSM virgin HDPE material is especially useful where strong sun exposure and wind are common, and where a durable, colorfast canopy is required.

Those who should look elsewhere include customers needing a temporary or very low-cost seasonal covering, or anyone who requires integrated hardware in the product box, since installation kits and cables are sold separately. Also consider a different shape or custom mounting system if you cannot anchor to existing posts, walls or trees.
