HOW TO CHOOSE HIGH QUALITY COIR FIBER SHADE SAIL?

Choosing high quality coir fiber shade sail  is a bit different from choosing synthetic (HDPE/PVC) sails. Quality is not just about thickness—it’s about fiber quality, weaving, performance in weather, and proper design. Based on reliable industry references and field experience, here’s a clear guide to help you choose well:

1. Check the Coir Fiber Sail

High-quality shade sails use long, well-retted coconut fibers:

  • Long fibers = stronger tensile strength & longer life

  • Minimal dust and short fibers = less shedding over time

  • Naturally high lignin content improves UV resistance

Poor-quality sails often look fluffy, shed quickly, and lose shape within one season


2. Fabric Weight & Density (GSM/ kg per m²)

A reliable coir shade sail typically weighs:

  • 750 gsm or 950 gsm 

  • Doubles in weight when wet (normal for coir)

Too light → weak shading & short lifespan
Too dense → poor airflow & higher wind load

This balance is critical for durability and comfort


3. Weaving Structure & Mesh Size of coir fiber shade sail

Look for:

  • Open, breathable weave (≈ 8–10 mm mesh)

  • Even, tight hand-woven or mechanical weaving

  • No plastic binding or resin coating (true eco product)

Good weaving allows:

  • Heat to escape

  • Wind to pass through

  • Faster drying after rain


4. UV Protection – Be Realistic of coir fiber shade sail

High-quality coir shade sails:

  • Block ~65–70% of direct sunlight

  • Create soft, dappled shade (tree-canopy effect)

  • Do not provide full blackout (this is a feature, not a defect)

This makes them ideal for gardens, cafés, resorts, pergolas, and eco-spaces


5. Edge Reinforcement & Fixing Points of coir fiber shade sail

A premium shade sail should have:

  • Reinforced corners or loops

  • Thick coir rope (16–18 mm) for fixing

  • Even tension distribution

Weak corners are the #1 cause of early failure, not the fabric itself
