FAQ

What kind of fabric are these parasols made from?+

The parasols in this range typically feature polyester or acrylic fabrics, chosen for their durability and resistance to fading and water damage. The specific weight of the fabric will vary between models, influencing the level of shade provided.

How sturdy are the frames?+

The frames are constructed from powder-coated steel, providing a robust and stable base. We select frames with reinforced joints for added durability against wind conditions – however, it's always recommended to secure your parasol to a table or stake if strong winds are expected.

Will these parasols withstand rain?+

The fabrics are treated to repel water, but they aren’t fully waterproof. Heavy downpours might cause some water ingress – it is advisable to take them down during prolonged periods of intense rain to avoid damage.

What colours do the parasols come in?+

We stock a wide range of colours, including classic striped designs (red and white, blue and white), neutral tones like beige and grey, and bolder options such as teal and orange. The specific colour availability will depend on current stock.

How easy are they to assemble?+

Most parasols in this range feature a simple pop-up design, making assembly quick and straightforward – typically taking under 10 minutes. Detailed instructions are provided with each purchase.

Do I need any additional accessories?+

While not always required, we recommend purchasing parasol stakes for added stability, particularly in windy conditions. A parasol table is also useful for creating a comfortable shaded area.

What size are the parasols (diameter)?+

All parasols within this 5m line range have a diameter of approximately 250cm – perfectly sized to provide ample shade for a small to medium-sized patio or garden space.

Are these parasols suitable for use in direct sunlight?+

Yes, they are designed to offer significant protection from the sun's rays. However, remember that no fabric provides 100% UV protection – consider using sunscreen and wearing protective clothing when spending extended periods in direct sunlight.

How do I clean the parasol fabric?+

The fabric can be cleaned with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that could damage the material. Always follow the manufacturer's care instructions provided with your specific model.

Can I return this product if it’s not suitable?+
