Myrtle Beach Boardwalk- Shade Systems 'Sail' canopies installed May 2010
Since vacationers left last summer, Myrtle Beach, S.C., has had a little work done. The new Myrtle Beach Boardwalk officially opened to rave reviews on May 15th, and a stroll along its seaside promenade has become a “cool” experience thanks to the functional and aesthetically pleasing ‘Sail’ canopies manufactured by Shade Systems, Inc. Dotting the boardwalk at several locations along its 1.2 mile length, the Shade Systems fabric canopies provide up to 99% screening of the sun’s harmful U.V. rays for residents and visitors alike, and punctuate the new boardwalk with colorful splashes of color.

The consulting landscape architects, The Landart Company, located right in Myrtle Beach, together with City of Myrtle Beach staff, specified Shade Systems 'Sail' shade structures for this high-profile $7 million project due to Shade Systems' stringent quality standards, design capabilities, and experience with similar demanding beachside projects and their attendant susceptibility to corrosion. One of the key features of the Shade Systems product cited for this project was its innovative Single-Point connection system, which allows for easy removal and reattachment of the shade canopies in the event of hurricane.
Shade Systems fabric shade structures feature our remarkable CoolNet™ shade fabric in a variety of durable colors, and our 'Sail' designs can be configured in a virtually endless array of shapes and sizes to accommodate any public space where shade is needed.
