About us
An Australian owned, family-orientated business based in Wodonga, providing shade sail and shade structure advice and solutions for residential, commercial and government projects across Albury Wodonga and the region.
Our story
Fashionable Sail Shades has been established for over twenty years, dedicated to shade that looks as good as it performs, whether it's a backyard, a school playground or a council park.
We use only the best commercial-grade specified shade fabrics, top-quality steel components and stainless steel or galvanised fittings for the best shade result. Our very competitive prices come from a simple policy: always give the best value for money.
Our structures are cost effective, long lasting and built on time. That commitment is backed by years as a producer of high-quality protection structures and by ongoing development of tension structure technology.

Our approach

Creative design
A total in-house design team creates individual, exciting and purpose-built structures.
Our structures blend with and enhance existing buildings, or make striking architectural statements as freestanding installations. Each one is tailor-made to suit the project and can easily be demounted or added on to another Fashionable Sail Shades structure.
All structures are designed and built to give optimum working height underneath for the application. The cooler, more agreeable environment they create boosts work efficiency in all kinds of settings and reduces heat stress.
Unique tensioning system
The Fashionable Sail Shades Tensioning System was developed after extensive testing and product research into the specific qualities of shade fabrics. No other system offers a comparable combination of strength and adjustability for a permanent non-creep, non-sag finish.
Warranty
Every project comes with a 10-year Manufacturer's Warranty on shade fabric UV degradation, plus our exclusive 2-year Workmanship Warranty.
Correct installation
There are many ways to design a shade sail or structure, but installing it correctly is one of the most important factors for both safety and looks. There's an exact ratio between the size of the metal posts, the depth they need to be concreted, and the size and type of cloth you choose.
Technical factors such as wind exposure also need to be considered. Our experienced installers will tell you exactly what's required to make your shade sail safe, effective and long-lasting.
Maximum life expectancy
Shade fabrics need protection from metal and sharp objects. Heat transfer from metal frames or wire cables is a well-known cause of premature fabric failure. Our unique system eliminates all direct metal contact, so the fabric gives maximum life expectancy.
Every material is chosen for long life and years of trouble-free use. UV-sensitive materials are formulated with long-life UV inhibitors to match the life of the shade fabric, and only the best high-tensile thread is used for structural seams.
