    A Bahama® C4sun square4sun sail over an ocean-view terrace with outdoor lounge seating

    Bahama® C4sun · Made By Hand In Germany

    Bahama® Shade Sails. Shade That Rolls Away.

    An arched sail opens over the terrace at the touch of a button, so guests and family can stay outside through the brightest hours. When the shade is not wanted, the sail rolls away and the open sky comes back.

    The Feeling Of An Open Terrace

    Shelter Overhead. Nothing In The Way.

    A sail floats over the space instead of standing in the middle of it. Tables, loungers and the view stay clear, and the convex shape gives a light, generous sense of room underneath.

    Bahama calls C4sun the world’s first fully automatic roll-up shading and rain protection system with an arched roof. Each sail is made by hand in Bahama’s manufactory in Germany, tailored to the exact dimensions of its site, so every installation is one of a kind.

    • Opens and rolls away on a motor, by remote control.
    • Waterproof fabric with UPF 50+ sun protection.
    • Wind-pressure relief built into every sail.
    • The elips4sun design won the Red Dot Award: Best of the Best in 2014.

    Made For Every Kind Of Day

    Comfort In The Sun. Shelter In A Shower.

    Motorized and remote controlled

    The sail opens and rolls away on a tube motor by remote control, with app or building-control options and wired switches on request.

    Automatic by the weather

    Optional wind and sun monitors roll the sail in or out on their own, so the terrace looks after itself.

    Rain-ready fabric

    Waterproof, yarn-dyed polyester of about 270 g/m² with high water resistance. A breathable weave keeps heat and condensation from building up underneath.

    UPF 50+ and anti-glare

    Excellent anti-glare and UV protection, rated UPF 50+.

    Sixteen colors

    Sixteen contemporary fabric colors, with special colors on request, to coordinate with parasols, awnings and cushions.

    Warm evenings

    Infrared radiators and a protective cover for the rolled sail are available as accessories.

    Masts, Mounting And Planning

    Planned For The Site, Down To The Centimeter.

    • Masts. Stainless steel or aluminum profiles, 9 ft 10 in to 19 ft 2 in tall, set vertical or at an 11° lean.
    • Foundations. Ground screw foundations, wall brackets, mast consoles or flange plates, chosen for the ground or the roof.
    • Roller tube. Mounted on a wall or rafters, or on a free-standing roller tube mount.
    • Site review. The Canvas USA® team reviews the space, wind exposure and power before the quote, then plans installation around the property.

    Before You Begin

    A Few Things To Know.

    Have a question about a specific space?

    Talk to the Canvas USA® team
    What is a Bahama® C4sun shade sail?

    Bahama describes C4sun as the world’s first fully automatic roll-up shading and rain protection system with an arched roof. The sail opens and rolls away on a motor, so the space has shade when it is wanted and open sky when it is not.

    Does the sail protect from rain?

    Bahama presents C4sun as shading and rain protection. The fabric is a waterproof, yarn-dyed polyester with high water resistance, and the convex sail shape widens the covered area.

    How does it handle wind?

    Each sail has a wind-pressure relief system with internal weights or dampers, and an optional wind monitor can roll the sail away automatically. Exposure and foundations are reviewed for each site before the quote.

    What sizes are available?

    Each sail is made to the dimensions of its site. Bahama’s published maximum is 22 ft 4 in × 25 ft 7 in for the square4sun | line, and 22 ft 4 in × 22 ft 4 in for the other square and trapez layouts.

    Which colors are offered?

    Sixteen contemporary fabric colors, with special colors on request. The Canvas USA® team brings samples to coordinate with the property’s parasols, awnings and cushions.

    How are warranties handled?

    Warranty terms are confirmed in writing with each quote.
