The need for protection from the harmful effects of the sun is great, especially for those who live in Australia. Australians suffer from the greatest form of skin cancer in the world. That is why shade sails were developed, to help reduce the exposure to the Ultra Violet Rays or UVR. The origin of shade sails came from ship sails that were made from large pieces of fabric that were held down with the corners of the fabric.
Due to the Ultra violet rays intensifying in the midday sun we are more likely to do greater damage to our skin. Other forms of weather can also be minimized due to new technologies and advancements in shade sails to give us maximum sun protection.
An important term to remember and understand is Ultraviolet Protection Factor or UPF. Its the term for the rating the protection by a variety of materials to protect skin from Ultra Violet Rays. So that means that as the rating of the UPF goes up the longer the protection and the more effective the material is against UVR will be.
