Features you usually find on high-end shade sails are available on the EZ Breez Furl at entry-level price. The heart of the system is the DSS patent, the diagonal strap that stabilises the shade sail.
Two technologies work around it: with S-GRIPP you roll up the shade sail on itself in 90 seconds, using a single rope and no motors, while the carbon fibre-reinforced nylon makes the mechanisms lightweight and durable, built to last season after season.

The DSS diagonal strap, a registered patent, runs across the shade sail from corner to corner: it distributes tension evenly and prevents the fabric from sagging.
Pull the rope and the shade sail rolls up on itself, with no motors or mechanical complexity: a gesture that becomes natural after the first time.
Hail-resistant, with anti-mould and anti-stain treatment, it is 58% more resistant than competing fabrics in this price range.
S-GRIPP technology: the S-shaped groove in the furler body locks the rope mechanically. No slipping: smooth furling with every manoeuvre.
Carbon fibre in the nylon resists UV rays and weathering. It does not rust and requires no lubrication. Total kit weight: 1 lb 10 oz.
1/4" rope with a loop end, hand-spliced. The same technique used in sport sailing to ensure hold and smooth running with every manoeuvre.
The Furl system is entirely designed and developed by Maanta's Research and Development team, in Italy. Before reaching your home, it underwent over 5,000 opening and closing cycles in the laboratory, along with accelerated wear tests, UV exposure and mechanical stress testing. What remains is a mechanism built to last season after season.

Cross Cut shade sail made of 285 gsm micro-perforated HDPE, with a reinforcement layer on each corner and elastic zigzag stitching, in the color of your choice.
Complete kit with winding shaft, swivel, marine rope, and everything you need for mounting.
Step-by-step illustrated guide for every stage of installation, which you can complete in just a few hours with household tools.
EZ Breez Furl Breathable is the rollable version of the entry-level breathable shade sail with DSS patent. The 285 gsm micro-perforated HDPE fabric creates shade while letting the breeze flow through, while the EZ Furl kit lets you roll it up in 90 seconds — no motors needed.
The breathable version uses micro-perforated HDPE: it allows air to circulate and lowers the perceived temperature under the shade sail, but it won't retain water during rain. The waterproof version features sealed seams and blocks water completely. If your main goal is comfort on hot days, the breathable option is the right choice for your outdoor space.
EZ Breez Furl Breathable is available in all standard EZ Breez sizes compatible with the EZ Furl kit, covering surfaces up to 215 sq ft. The base EZ Breez shade sail reaches up to 323 sq ft, but the winding shaft kit has a limit of 215 sq ft.
It is not designed for that: the microperforated fabric allows water to pass through. In light rain, drops disperse through the micropores without pooling. For full rain protection, we recommend the waterproof EZ Breez Furl version.
The HDPE fabric resists UV rays and extreme temperature changes. In fall and winter, we recommend rolling up your shade sail on windy or stormy days: with EZ Furl, it takes just 90 seconds and helps protect the fabric, extending its lifespan.
Waterproof polyester is a coated fabric: it gets its water resistance from a continuous coating, not from the weight of the yarn. That's why 6.5 oz/yd² is enough. Breathable HDPE, on the other hand, owes its strength to the density of the weave: the tighter the mesh, the higher the weight. The 8.4 oz/yd² of the breathable version is the highest weight in its category, well above the standard 5.3 oz/yd² of entry-level options.
The benefit depends on the natural breeze in your environment. Even with light airflow, the microperforated fabric creates an evaporative cooling effect that can reduce the perceived temperature by 5–11°F compared to a fully exposed area in direct sunlight, and by 2–5°F compared to a waterproof shade sail under the same conditions.
DSS (Diagonal Stability Support) is a diagonal strap that runs across the shade sail from corner to corner. It eliminates lift — the phenomenon that causes standard shade sails to billow and flap in the wind like a nautical sail, putting stress on the seams and anchor points. With DSS, the shade sail stays flat and taut even in strong gusts.
No. HDPE pigments are solution-dyed directly into the yarn during production, not applied on the surface. The color is an integral part of the fiber and won't fade with UV exposure, even after years of outdoor use.
No. Carbon-reinforced nylon contains no exposed metal parts and resists UV rays without degrading. It requires no lubrication or seasonal maintenance, and performs reliably even in coastal environments with high salt exposure.
About 2 hours working at a comfortable pace and following the illustrated instructions included. You'll need standard household tools: a screwdriver, a wrench, and a drill to secure any wall-mounting plates. No professional installer required.
No. Anchor poles and wall plates are chosen based on your specific installation. On the Maanta website, you'll find the EZ Mast Pole and the EZ Wall Fix Kit, designed to work together with EZ Breez Furl.
Yes. If you already have a fixed EZ Breez Breathable shade sail, you can purchase the EZ Furl kit separately. Simply detach one corner of the shade sail, install the furler, and reassemble — no need to remove the entire installation.
Very easy: pull the 1/4" nautical rope in a single direction and the shade sail wraps progressively around itself. The furler's S-GRIPP technology keeps the rope in place without you having to hold it. In 90 seconds it's rolled up, and in another 90 it's fully open.
The DSS significantly reduces lift, but in case of strong wind we recommend rolling up the shade sail. With EZ Furl it takes just 90 seconds: it's the most effective way to protect both the fabric and the anchoring structure.
2 years from the date of purchase, covering manufacturing defects and malfunctions of the components included in the EZ Furl kit.
