UV & Fade-Resistant Parasols

Keep your outdoor spaces cool, comfortable and colour-true. Our UV-resistant, fade-resistant parasols use durable, colourfast canopy fabrics and marine-grade frames, so they look great season after season—at home or in commercial settings.

UV Standard 801 canopies with long fade warranties: up to 10 years on Aurora, Nova, Eclipse and Paraflex; 3 years on Café Series (model-dependent; limitations apply).

Choose the format that fits your space—cantilever for clear floor areas, centre-post for classic through-table setups, or wall-mounted where footprints are tight. All ranges use weather-resistant materials designed to stand up to strong sun, regular cleaning and daily use.

Why UV & Fade Resistance Matters

• Colourfast performance: 100% solution-dyed canopy fabrics designed to retain colour in high UV. Fade warranties up to 10 years (Aurora/Nova/Eclipse/Paraflex) and 3 years on Café Series (model-dependent).
• UV comfort: UV Standard 801 certified canopy fabrics help reduce sun penetration beneath the canopy (level varies by fabric and colour).
• All-weather build: Water-repellent, quick-dry canopies and corrosion-resistant hardware for long service life.

Parasol Types

• Cantilever parasols — No centre pole; generous reach over lounge sets, daybeds and dining areas.
• Centre-post parasols — Classic patio and restaurant choice; tidy through-table positioning.
• Wall-mounted parasols — Space-saving arms that fold flat; perfect for compact courtyards, balconies and play decks.

Best-Fit Use-Cases

Home & Garden

Long-lasting colour for patios, lawns and pool areas. Pick lighter canopy shades to keep things cooler; darker tones give a crisper silhouette and more glare reduction.

Hospitality Terraces

Restaurant patios, bistro pavements and hotel lounges benefit from colour-true canopies that stay smart through peak season. Mix cantilever (clear aisles) with centre-post (through-table) for efficient layouts.

Education & Play Areas

Reliable shade for playgrounds and outdoor classrooms with canopies that keep their colour. Wall-mounted and compact cantilever models help maintain clear routes.

Poolside & Coastal

UV-intense environments demand colourfast fabrics and corrosion-resistant frames. Choose wind-ready options for exposed decks (performance depends on size, model and installation).

Branding & Colour

Branded parasols and bespoke colours are available on selected ranges. We’ll advise on panel choice, artwork scale and contrast so logos remain crisp and legible in bright conditions.

Care Tips to Maximise Fade Resistance

• Rinse off salt, sunscreen and pollutants regularly; allow to dry fully.
• Close and cover canopies when not in use; store indoors over winter where possible.
• Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive brushes; use mild cleaners approved for outdoor fabrics.
• Rotate furniture layouts a few times each season to even out sun exposure.

Installation & Maintenance

Match your surface with in-ground sleeves, bolt-down base plates or heavy wheeled bases. Stabilising accessories are available for breezier sites. Routine checks of fixings and a simple clean-and-dry cycle keep mechanisms smooth and fabrics looking fresh.

FAQs

Are these UV-proof?
Fabrics are UV-resistant and designed to reduce sun penetration, but protection levels vary by fabric and colour. Use shade sensibly and follow sun-safety guidance.

What’s the difference between UV-resistant and fade-resistant?
UV-resistant relates to limiting UV transmission through the fabric; fade-resistant refers to the fabric’s ability to maintain colour under UV exposure.

Which colours fade least?
Darker colours often show fade more slowly, while lighter colours reflect more heat. Choose based on look, heat management and site exposure.

Do you offer branded UV & fade-resistant parasols?
Yes—branding and bespoke colours are available on selected models. We’ll confirm options for your chosen range.
