Sail Shades

We've refined the concept for Sail Shades using modern material and CAD techniques to provide a longlasting, static product which brings the Sailshade right up to date. We call our version the Kwikshade - distinctive structure designed to make an ordinary environment extraordinary, whilst providing protection from the harsh effects of the summer sun.

Each Kwikshade is individually designed - once the fixings are in place, exact measurements are taken and the Kwikshade is modelled using CAD techniques before being patterned to create a structure which is truly three-dimensional with minimal movement in the wind.

Kwikshades are a practical and cost-effective alternative to more traditional canopies. They are manufactured from structural grade mesh which is inherently fire retardant, and are designed for long-term outdoor use.

The mesh sails odder up to 90% UV blobk, meaning that they can have a shade factor of 97%. They also provide a high level of UVA and UVB protection.

Protect yourselves from the sun with a Kwikshade

If you need a flexible solution to provide shelters from sun, our Kwikshade is a great solution. It is a very customizable structure that can cover spaces as small as 9 metres squared as well as outdoor spaces like seating in a stadium.

Each Kwikshade is custom designed to make it totally unique for your spcific need. Once the measurements of the area are takenm the data is fed through a CAD program which specifies the exact layout and form of the kwikshade structure. The Kwikshade is then fabricated according to these specifications.

The Kwikshade is ideal for outdoor dining areas as well as for recreational spaces like play area in gardens for children. The mesh provides a 97% shade, blocking out the harmful UV rays from the sun. Therefore, people can spend hours enjoying a drinnk or long lunch under the kwikshade canopy without concerns about the sun.
