They will protect your furnishings and floors from peeling, fading, warping, and yellowing from the sun's intense rays. Made from Greenscreen Sea-Tex™ fabrics, Hunter Douglas Solar Shades come in different weaves and five different opacities.

You can select from a generous assortment of over 130 fabric and color choices ranging from breezy whites to pale pastels and rich earthy tones, so you are guaranteed to find a hue that suits your patio's original décor.
