Shade Sails in Kenya: Style, Comfort and UV Protection
Jowaki Electrical designs, fabricates and installs shade sails that bring style, comfort and UV protection to homes, schools, hotels, parking lots, playgrounds and restaurants.
A modern alternative to traditional roofing
Shade sails are tensioned fabric canopies that give cool, usable outdoor space without the cost and bulk of a permanent roof. Our high-density fabric blocks up to 98% of UV rays while allowing air to flow, so the area underneath stays comfortable.
We assess and measure your site, then design a sail that fits your space and purpose. Sails are supported by galvanised or powder-coated steel poles, stainless-steel fittings and marine-grade cables, and are built for strong sun, rain and moderate wind in Kenya.

Shade Sails: frequently asked questions
How much UV do shade sails block?
Our shade sail fabrics block between 90% and 98% of UV rays, depending on the fabric and colour you choose.
What is the difference between HDPE and PVC-coated shade sails?
HDPE fabric is breathable, so warm air escapes and the area stays cooler. PVC-coated fabric gives more protection from rain. We will help you choose based on how you will use the space.
Can shade sails handle rain and wind in Kenya?
Yes. They are designed for strong sun, rain and moderate wind. Proper tensioning and an angle that sheds water are built into every installation.
What shapes and colours are available?
Triangular, square and rectangular sails in beige, sand, grey, blue, green or custom colours.
How do I look after a shade sail?
Wash it occasionally, check the hardware and re-tension the fabric when needed. We offer maintenance on request.
