Shade sails of today have been developed so that it can provide much needed cover from weather, especially from the hot sun. The sun is where the most of skin damage mainly in the form of skin cancer comes from. This damage comes from the increased UV rays during this time of day.
Aussies are most at risk as they are number one in the world for skin cancer. The need for shade sails to prevent the UV rays is essential.
What is important to remember and get our heads around are Ultra violet Protection Factor. This is the rating they use and helps to give a gauge of materials to protect skin from UV Rays and prevent skin cancer. The higher the spf factor gets the stronger we will have increased protection against those nasty Ultra Violet Rays.
