Winter Shade Sail Maintenance

Friday, December 3rd, 2010


It is very important during winter weather conditions that as much snow as possible is removed from your Shade Sails (ideally kept to a minimum of 4 inches).

This can be achieved by using a soft broom from underneath the Shade or from stepladders around the perimeter of the sail – ***Please take care when using steps!***

If snow at the centre of the sail cannot be reached, remove as much as possible from all other areas.

If you have any questions or queries then please do not hesitate to contact us.

Thanks for the feedback!

...imagine your logo here

Fabric canopies provide a great opportunity to create inspirational space for many environments

They do of course enhance outdoor areas into impressive, functional areas, providing crucial shade and shelter from the external elements.  However, the shades themselves form a blank canvas just waiting to have your logo or corporate message printed onto them communicating your brand ethos… a clever and creative way to engage with your staff and visitors.
