Coconut fiber shade sail: the trend you don't want to miss

On warm days you naturally want to fully enjoy your garden or terrace, but in a comfortable way. Shade is indispensable, especially if you are outside for a long time. Only... a brightly colored parasol or synthetic cloth quickly takes the atmosphere out of your carefully decorated outdoor space.

Anyone who opts for a natural, stylish and sustainable solution will quickly end up with coconut fiber shade sail. Made from a special material with character, which convinces both functionally and aesthetically. A trend that suits the times and a garden with personality.

What exactly is a coconut fiber shade sail?

A coconut fiber shade sail is – as the name suggests – made from coconut fibers. These are the rough threads on the outside of the coconut. Normally a residual product, but cleverly reused into something new: a sturdy, breathable cloth that serves perfectly as natural sun protection.

No plastic, no synthetic substances, just pure nature. And you see that. The material has a warm, natural appearance that immediately adds atmosphere to your garden or terrace.

1. Sustainable & environmentally friendly
   Made from a natural residual product, so good for the planet. No plastic junk that ends up in the landfill after a year.
   
   
2. Stylish & natural
   The warm color and structure of coconut fiber provide a luxurious, rustic look. Fits perfectly in a natural or Mediterranean garden design.
   
   
3. Effective sun protection
   Coconut fiber provides excellent protection from the sun, but at the same time allows enough air to pass through to keep it cool and pleasant.
   
   
4. Strong & weather resistant
   Coconut fiber is naturally strong and resistant to moisture and sun. With a little love, your canvas will last for years.
   
   
5. Breathable material
   No greenhouse feeling under your sail. The structure of the fiber provides ventilation and shade.
   
   

Why more and more people are choosing coconut fiber

We are becoming increasingly aware of our impact on the environment, including in the garden. Where previously a plastic garden set was the norm, you now see more and more natural materials appearing. Think of wooden lounge sets, bamboo wind screens and also coconut fiber shade sails.

We also want gardens that look good. A coconut fiber shade sail adds character to your outdoor space and shows that you are consciously working. Win-win.

How do you use a coconut fiber shade sail?

Hanging a coconut fiber shade sail is actually just as easy as hanging any other sail. You choose the spot where you want shade. Above your lounge set, above the dining table or, for example, above a children's play area, and hang the canvas with hooks or ropes.

At CocoWeave you can choose from three shapes:

Triangular – ideal for playful corners or smaller spaces
Square – sleek and symmetrical
Rectangle – perfect for above longer tables or larger terraces

The material is sturdy, but flexible enough to stretch nicely. And in terms of maintenance? A quick rinse with water is usually sufficient.

What do you pay attention to when purchasing?

Not every coconut fiber sail is of the same quality. Therefore, pay close attention to the weave: a structure that is too coarse allows too much sunlight through, while a weave that is too dense can cause a stuffy feeling.

Also important are the finish of the edges, the type of mounting points and the right size for your outdoor space. By choosing a well-finished fabric with the right balance between strength and ventilation, you benefit most from what coconut fiber has to offer.

Verder belangrijk:

• Afwerking: goede zoomranden en stevige bevestigingsogen maken het verschil.
• Formaat: meet goed op wat je nodig hebt. Te groot is onpraktisch, te klein werkt niet.
• Herkomst: kies voor een leverancier die weet waar het materiaal vandaan komt en hoe het is verwerkt.
