Shade Sails Experience counts if you want trouble-free Shade Sails. Sunset Canvas has lead the way in design and fitting methods for shade sails by investing in research and development through the facilities at the University of Southern Queensland and in conjunction with an Engineer specializing in the field. All shade sail fittings are stainless steel, the thread is UV stabilized and the hemming method is more robust to withstand the test of time in the great Australian outdoors. Sunset Canvas is the only firm to use safety links on our shade sails that will fail under extreme weather conditions to safeguard buildings and columns from damage, hence avoiding major inconvenience and repair costs. Shade sails are a versatile shade solution, made to measure and designed by our specialized staff to complement most sites. Quality is never compromised on any of our products, so for sails that look great, are taut, streamlined and hassle free, you need Sunset Canvas. Shade Sails are manufactured at our factory and can be fully installed by us (throughout south-east Queensland and south-west Queensland and into Northern NSW) or supplied in kit form (including our safety links when required), and with our instructions and guidelines can be fitted by the competent home handyman. At Sunset Canvas you can talk directly to one of our qualified tradespeople who install our shade sails if you are having difficulty with the fitting instructions – they will step you through the process.
