1. Cantilever Parasols
These freestanding designs offer excellent flexibility, as the base and pole are positioned to the side. This leaves more usable space beneath the canopy—perfect for larger gatherings or dining setups.
2. Standard Parasols
Compact and easy to use, our standard parasols fit into the centre of a table and are supported by a weighted base. They’re an excellent choice for small patios or balconies.
Maintenance Tips for Your Garden Parasol
Cleaning: Regularly clean the fabric with mild soapy water and a soft brush to remove dirt and stains. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
Storage: Store your parasol in a dry, cool place during the off-season to prevent damage from moisture or pests.
Repairs: Check for loose screws or frayed fabric and address issues promptly. Our customer service team can assist with repair advice or replacement parts.
