They can be used in any space: the square shape fits perfectly on balconies, verandas, gardens, pergolas but also terraces and balconies!
Square garden sails are a valid alternative to the classic wooden pergola, where it is often necessary to obtain permissions and authorisations.
They are practical: square sails can be easily installed and removed if necessary. No authorisations or specialised skills are needed. Installation is quick and easy thanks to the exclusive fixings offered by Maanta: poles for shade sails or wall plates!
They can be combined: thanks to our poles and wall fixings, several sail canopies can be placed side by side to create a dynamic and eye-catching effect. This solution is also useful for covering large areas instead of creating a single sail which, especially in the waterproof version, would be difficult to tension.
They are elegant: Maanta's shade sails will add an extra touch to your garden. Thanks to Maanta's unique design, you will have an airy and elegant designer cover. What's more, you can also tilt multiple corners to create a beautiful hut effect.
Which model to choose?
Easy Shade, our entry-level sail, excellent value for money. Available in two versions: waterproof and breathable. The waterproof sail is made of a 160 gsm polyester fabric. The sealed, non-drip seams provide coverage from the rain! The breathable fabric is a strong HDPE (polyethylene) mesh of 180 gsm, ideal for protection from heat and sun and ensuring extreme freshness!
Saill: our premium sail! All the experience and quality of Made in Italy to offer an elegant and extremely functional product. Available in both waterproof and breathable versions.
SolariA: our top-of-the-range square sail. Maanta's most beautiful and resistant sail. Radial cut directly inspired by the nautical world for an elegant and resistant product.

In order to install a square sail in an excellent manner, it is necessary to provide four anchor points, one for each corner of the sail. At Maanta we offer two types of fixing: wall or pole. See our info & guides section
In order to guarantee the optimum tension of the fabric, we prefer to equip our sails with attachment points only on the corners using X-tension technology. By stretching the sail along its diagonals we have seen a 73% reduction in middle water sacks. The fabric is stretched evenly, and the force is able to reach the center. For this reason we never add extra hooks on the perimeter or make any changes to the structure of the sail.
We do not make sails with a completely straight side because this would compromise the optimum tension on the central part of the sail. However, bear in mind that our "Made in Italy" sails (i.e. all "Saill" and "Solaria" models) have a concavity of 2% of the length of the side. So a 5 metres side, for example, has a maximum concavity (at the centre of the side) of 10cm.
Sails are not exactly designed to be installed on a pergola, but with the right measures it is possible to create a safe and resistant structure! First of all, you have to consider that sails need a generous inclination, especially when waterproof, so always plan for a 25% inclination. Then, another fundamental point is to take the measurements correctly: remember to deduct at least 35 cm at each corner to have a well-tensioned and tilted sail.
Of course you can! Especially when covering large areas, it is a great solution to place two sails side by side or on top of each other! Not only does this give you a more inviting and dynamic structure, it is also easier to maintain over time.
Large sails, especially if they are waterproof, need a generous inclination and optimum tension. So big sails require more effort!
A smart and stylish solution is a combination of two triangular sails, instead of a square one!
