Kwikshade, Sail Shades for Schools
We can’t lay claim to the invention of the Sailshade; the concept of using a sheet of material suspended at three or more points is ancient. We’ve refined this concept 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’ - a distinctive structure designed to make an ordinary environment extraordinary, whilst providing valuable 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.
Kwikshade structures can vary in size from small 3m x 3m shades to huge areas with multiple shades, ideal for covering seating areas in stadiums.
Kwikshades are a practical and cost-effective alternative to more traditional canopies. They are manufactured from a structural grade mesh which is inherently fire retardant, and are designed for long-term outdoor use.
The mesh sails offer up to 90% UV block, meaning that they can have a shade factor of 97%. They also provide a high level of UVA and UVB protection.
Available in a range of sizes, shapes and colours, Kwikshades are ideal for use over smaller areas, as well as sand pits and other outdoor play equipment to protect children from the sun’s harmful rays.
Kwikshades come with a 10 year guarentee.
