Carefully selected materials contribute to a long service life. Roll-up sun sails from WAREMA feature durable fabrics and long-lasting colour brilliance.

A retractable sun sail offers flexibility above all.
It provides shade when needed and can be retracted when the weather changes or when there is less sunlight. This helps protect the fabric and keeps the patio looking tidy.
A retractable sun sail works in a similar way to an awning:
- extend it when shade is required
- retract it when the sun sail is not needed
- protect it when wind, rain or longer periods of absence are expected
Depending on the version, operation is either manual or motorised.
Retractable sun sails from WAREMA can be operated manually or motorised, depending on the model.
With manual versions, the sun sail is rolled up using a smooth-action crank.
Electrically retractable sun sails can be extended and retracted at the touch of a button. Depending on the equipment, operation via hand-held transmitter, app or automatic function is also possible.
An electrically retractable sun sail offers greater operating comfort above all. The fabric is rolled up on one or both sides by motor and can be retracted quickly when required. This is particularly practical when the weather changes, in strong wind or during longer periods of absence.
- comfortable operation without physical effort
- quick extension and retraction at the touch of a button
- better protection for the fabric when the sun sail is not in use
- automatic retraction options when compatible sensors or controls are used
- tidy appearance, as no permanently tensioned fabric remains visible
Here we've collected – and answered – a number of common questions about rollable sun sails.
The price of a rollable sun sail varies depending on the size, material and optional extras selected. When getting quotations, it an often be worth comparing the costs for a rollable sun sail in terms of quality and durability. You can purchase WAREMA rollable sun sails from your local specialised retailer , who can advise on and install your retractable shade sail.
The quality of your sun sail, the suitability of the fixing you have selected and the installation quality determine how resilient your sun sail will be to wind and weather. Better quality translates to better resilience. The sun sail should be rolled up in strong winds to avoid subjecting the fabric to high forces. When exactly is the wind force too strong? What needs to be kept in mind when planning in particularly stormy regions? A specialised retailer near you can help answer both of these questions. A compatible wind sensor can be used to trigger automatic retraction. The WAREMA WMS radio system Weather station can trigger automatic retraction when defined weather thresholds are reached.
