What are the production and delivery times?

Thanks to our experience, we’ve optimized production times and can manufacture custom shade sails in about 5 business days. However, timelines may vary depending on the season and the number of orders being processed. The estimated delivery date is always automatically updated in the configurator and on the product pages. Please refer to the date shown after your order is confirmed.

After receiving your order, our technical team designs the sail using digital software. The technical drawing is then entered into the production plan, which includes digital cutting, semi-automatic sewing, and final quality control. Once completed, the product is packaged and shipped.

What is the best time to order a custom sail?

Tailoring sails involves many steps which take approx. 5 working days. To avoid longer waits we recommend, if possible, to design and order your sail in the low season (September to March). Very often the price is even more advantageous out of season and you can take advantage of any discounts and offers

How do I take the correct measurements for my custom shade sails?
We recommend first planning the anchoring system. Design the position of the wall plates or support poles. This way, you can easily take measurements between one anchor point and another.
Our configurator will show you the measurements you need to design the sail (lengths of the sides and/or diagonals). It is essential to provide the necessary space for the anchoring tools.
Always allow at least 35cm between each corner of the sail and its anchoring point. If you're unsure, choose the 'I will provide the distances between the fixing points' option in our configurator. The system will automatically calculate the correct size for your sail.

Check out our complete guide: how to measure?

Can grommets be added?

With Bugna, you can customize the placement of the grommets based on your needs. Our custom grommet fabric allows you to choose where to place the grommets to ensure optimal fastening and perfect adaptability to the anchoring system. Create the best solution for your space by configuring Bugna online here.

On which side should the sail be installed?

The sail must be installed with the seams facing upwards, therefore the Maanta lettering on the corner plates must be legible from under the sail. The choice to direct the seams upwards is not only aesthetic: the thread we use, widely used in the nautical world, can be safely exposed to atmospheric phenomena.

Can I choose the drainage point of my sail

The drainage point is the angle to choose in any tailor-made sail to allow perfect drainage of rainwater, as well as in the event of condensation that can form on the underside during periods of high humidity. In this way the flow of water towards a certain corner of the sail is always respected, thanks to the "tile principle" and liquids will always be able to slip away.

What to do if a central water pocket forms?

If you see a water pocket, or "belly", form, the sail may not be installed correctly. Our sails are equipped with adjustable perimeter straps, similar to those of a common backpack, sometimes too tight. This means that the diagonals inside the sail are not receiving enough tension.

To correct this error, just follow these simple steps:

  1. In each corner, loosen the two perimeter straps which are adjustable on the sides
  2. Stretch the sail as much as possible towards each corner so that the diagonals are well pulled.

This should produce more tension in the sail center, thus eliminating the vacuum that was created.

In case of snow do I have to remove the sail?

 Yes.  Snow, due to its weight, can cause tears or breaks in the fabric.  Another risk is the formation of ice in the knit of the fabric, which would make it extremely fragile. 

 Therefore, in case of snow we do not recommend keeping the sail installed. Instead, we suggest removing the sail, first loosening the anchor, releasing the corresponding carabiner and then removing all the other carabiners. The removed sail must then be dried, folded and placed in a dry place. 

What can i do in case of stains?

Shade sails can be cleaned with neutral detergents , left to act for a few minutes, and thoroughly rinsed. To remove stains or halos we recommend first of all to remove it, first loosening the anchor , releasing the corresponding carabiner and subsequently removing all the other carabiners. With the sail removed, you can proceed with soft brushes to remove the most persistent stains with the help of water and possibly neutral detergents.

I can return a custom made sail?
There is no right of withdrawal for customized products. Custom sails are specially created with dimensions suitable for individual customers. In any case, we recommend that you check very carefully before ordering that the measurements indicated are correct. In case of doubt, our team is at your complete disposal to provide you with all the necessary advice and information.
