Observations
Here at La Scourtinerie, the shade sails are exposed to bad weather all year round for several seasons now. Over time, we observe a color modification, especially on the side exposed to the sun (above). Depending on the exposure conditions, our shade sails may turn pale or grey (same as wood exposed under similar conditions).
Strong sun and wind can lead to fiber loss which then leads to the weaving thickness gradual diminution, and therefore impact the shade sail efficiency. This becomes apparent after several years though and the shade sails wintering allows them to last longer. Note that the quality of the shade sail remains optimal in the first 2 years.
Please note that snow can significantly increase the sail’s weight and lead to, either a collapse of the supporting structure (pergola), or a rope breach regarding the suspended shade sails. In such situation, wintering is highly recommended, if not required.
As a general rule, to maximize your shade sail’s life, and whenever possible, we advise you to store it in a dry, rodent-free place.
CAUTION : We’ve noticed that rain can sometimes cause the natural tannins in the coconut fiber to bleed, so be careful with the white tiles and fabrics on your terrace. We therefore recommend that you rinse your shade sail with plenty of water when you receive it, then leave it to dry before installing it. Repeat the operation several times if necessary.
Delivery time
The average delivery time (in France) for our shade sails is 2 to 5 working days.

Ordered a 3m by 5m shade sail for a carport. I’m delighted with the result. It changes everything in my garden. Living in the South, my car stays cool under the shade sail. Easy to install with two people. You need patience to attach it and a bit of time. It took us a day to get it just right. We watered it before putting it on the carport to avoid tannins bleeding at the first rain on my car. So far, it hasn’t rained. It’s settled in nicely. It looks wonderful !

I ordered a 4x5m shade sail. Package received promptly. I followed the advice given to me by phone, perfect, I am very satisfied with this purchase.

I’m a fan of the way the shade sail looks. Sales department that listens (which isn’t always the case these days), cares about their customers’ satisfaction and the use of their product. In fact, I’d recommend them to many friends who have already stolen the idea from us 😊
