Premium shade fabric with leading sun protection.
An innovation in canopies, shade sails have become a popular choice for shading the nation’s outdoor spaces. They offer a modern look, flexible design, and wider coverage than traditional awnings or umbrellas.
Polyfab is a trusted supplier of premium shade sail fabric and supplies. Solar shades made from Polyfab products are ideal for patios, schools and playgrounds, shopping centers, hotels, pools, parking lots, and more. Great for commercial or residential use, Polyfab fabric, hardware, and webbing work together to create high-quality canopies.
Fabrics for Diverse Markets

Architec 400 is a combination of monofilament and Polyfab’s Ovalon™ yarn. The blend gives it high strength, minimal stretch, and tension control. Ideal for large commercial projects, it comes with a 15-year UV warranty.
The newly redeveloped FR Comshade shade sail fabric comes with higher flame resistance, updated materials, and environmental safety. Featuring a wide 150" width, the durable fabric is backed by a 10-year limited warranty.

Connecting Parts to Rig and Reinforce

Polyfab Pro shade hardware is made from marine-grade stainless steel 316 and other stable metals. Compatible with HDPE fabric, these high-quality fittings bring tested performance and a long service life. Use to lift, rig, connect, and hold. Explore brackets, bow shackles, eye bolts, and more.
