Shade cloths Espace Ombrage
The fabric is an important element in the choice of a shade sail.
This is why the fabrics of our shade sails have been chosen for their aesthetic quality, their great resistance to climatic hazards and their durability.
By choosing an Espace Ombrage shade sail, you are assured of a durable solution that combines comfort, ease of use and aesthetics.
Our shade sails in a few points:
- High resistance to breakage, snags and wear
- Rot-proof: mould does not affect the fibres of our fabrics.
- Undeformable: does not shrink, swell or absorb water.
- Colour stability: Our fabrics have a high resistance to sunlight, from 6 to 7 on a scale of 8 (for comparison, cotton has a resistance of 4).
- Insensitive to high temperatures (up to +70° C).
- Easy care: Small stains can be easily removed with warm water and mild soap
- Resistance to water and mechanical damage
- 92 to 97% UV filtration
- Anti-fouling treatments
The perforated fabrics (AUSTRALE 220 and AUSTRALE 340) provide effective protection from the sun and are resistant to strong winds, while the water-repellent fabrics (ACRYL 300 and SOLAR 200) will protect you from the sun and also from rain.
True natural air conditioners, our shade sail fabrics are characterised by their versatility, finding their place outside and perfectly adapted to the manufacture of shade sails. Our shade cloths are also suitable for all temperatures in summer and winter.
A textile touch with a very decorative spirit
Espace-Ombrage shade cloths are suitable for all elegant and design projects.
By combining visual comfort, our shade sails will offer you warm atmospheres with high quality raw materials and finishes.
A combination of technical sophistication and chic, uncluttered decoration for your satisfaction.
The weaving of the acrylic yarns gives the fabric a unique textile feel. A wide range of colours is available, in line with current decorating trends, with particularly chic plains such as ivory and mouse grey.
«High-tech» sun protection
Our shade cloths offer real visual comfort, letting in light while controlling its intensity.
They protect against the harmful effects of the sun. Their openwork and water-repellent texture ensures excellent visibility to the outside world while preserving privacy.
Our openwork fabrics, which are both unique on the market and versatile like the AUSTRALE 340 shade sail fabrics, are made of high density polyethylene yarns. They allow, in addition to their resistance, a filtering of 97% of the UV, thus combining visual comfort and UV blocking, in addition to the advantages of the textile touch of a curtain.
Their unique composition gives them a high resistance to time and weather.
This is also the case for our "sunworker" fabrics sewn with PVC-coated polyester thread, giving the fabrics good handling and better resistance to mechanical and climatic aggression.
And finally, our wilting sails have the strength of a tarpaulin with a 100% natural fabric look. Indeed, they are woven with 100% acrylic yarns, which provides visual and thermal comfort while maintaining a resolutely textile feel and appearance, a symbol of the "top of the range" positioning, but also an effective protection against rain due to the non-waterproof sewing threads.
The colours
Colours for solar protection: Choosing a colour means controlling the heat and light input of the sun. A light colour will let more heat through, but will offer incomparable luminosity, a darker colour will bring more coolness, but will filter the sunlight.
The colour also offers optimal UV protection. Dark, it will stop all UVA and UVB radiation; light, it will be as effective as a sun cream index 50

Maintenance and cleaning of shade sail fabrics :
Comfortable, stylish and so practical, Espace-Ombrage fabrics allow you to enjoy your outdoor space with complete peace of mind.
The fabrics are extremely easy to maintain and most dirt can be cleaned with mild soap and water.
With their unfailing resistance and wide range, Espace Ombrage canvases are sure to win you over!
One of the best ways to keep your fabric in top condition and to delay deep cleaning is to maintain it regularly.
This maintenance consists of simply removing dust with a brush before it sets in, wiping off stains as soon as they occur.
Or cleaning locally as soon as possible after they appear.
Routine or light cleaning
Remove any loose dirt from the fabric with a brush.
Wash the fabric by hand, according to the following instructions:
Prepare a cleaning solution of 60 ml of mild soap diluted in 4 litres of lukewarm water (below 40°C).
Clean with a soft brush and allow the solution to soak into the fabric.
Rinse thoroughly and let the fabric air dry.
Re-waterproofing of the fabric to facilitate its maintenance:
Water repellent shade cloths such as Acryl 300 have a special treatment that improves water repellency. This treatment is designed to retain its effectiveness for several years under normal use. However, it is always possible to revive this protection with a waterproofing product. This will restore the water repellency of your fabric. It prevents leaks, stains and mildew and protects against UV damage. It is also very effective against leaks at the seams.
