Your Umbrella: The quintessential need for destination resorts

Buddhist Monks with Umbrellas

What comes to your mind when you hear the term "beach resort"? Everything a vacation should have: sun, sand, warmth, and relaxation. The beach resorts work really hard to make their facilities more welcoming and comfortable for their visitors. Providing the appropriate shade structures and umbrellas for shelter from the scorching heat on the beach is one approach to this. Read this blog to understand how to pick a perfect outdoor umbrella.


 

Types of Outdoor Umbrellas

A destination resort umbrella or a beach umbrella's primary purpose is to protect visitors from UVA and UVB solar radiation. Additionally, these umbrellas must be sturdy, windproof, and simple to move around and store. Beach resort operators have a variety of options for umbrellas, including:

 

  • market awnings

  • Patio parasols

  • branded umbrellas

  • branded umbrellas

  • Cantilever awnings

  • offset parasols

 

Canopies 

Why not choose a canopy if you're not seeking a regular umbrella? These handy, portable shade structures spread the cooling area for more sun protection. Additionally, sand-anchored tops resemble a hybrid of umbrellas and tents. These offer increased wind resistance and privacy. The canopies by Your Umbrella are also long-lasting, mould-resistant and fade-resistant.

 

Table Patio Umbrellas

As the name implies, the resort's beach tables include a hole that can accommodate a standard patio umbrella pole. To prevent tipping over the beach table, the umbrella has a foundation. It is one of the most popular designs and looks like a typical umbrella but is significantly more prominent in size.

 

Sizes of umbrellas

The quantity of space available for the application is the first consideration when selecting the size of the outdoor umbrella you require. The size of outdoor umbrellas typically ranges from 5.5 to 11 feet, with larger sizes providing excellent sun protection.

 

Buy an outdoor umbrella that can cover your beach table or outdoor dining table by 2 feet on either side as a general rule. The outdoor umbrella's height must also be ideal for individuals who are seated below it. We suggest a minimum height of 7 to 9 feet.

 

The opening systems of umbrellas

The various opening systems consist of the following:

 

A rope tied to the pulley system is employed to open and close the umbrella. A pin is inserted after the frame has been extended to protect persons sitting underneath to prevent it from closing.

 

Or, Pop-up.

An umbrella is popped with a button, and a spring-latch or catch locks into place.

Fabrics used for Umbrellas

​

Olefin

The fantastic umbrella material is olefin. Olefin dries off rapidly after being wet and has incredible UV resistance. Olefin has been developed since the 1960s. Since then, it has been available in various colours, textures, and styles. This makes it ideal for outdoor entertainment and design areas. Olefin is a durable, hygienic fabric that offers a fantastic value for umbrella fabric.

 

Acrylic material

Another excellent material for umbrellas is acrylic. Because acrylic is supple, colourful, and typically UV-resistant, manufacturers favour it. There are numerous colour and yarn options for acrylic fabrics.

 

Polyester fabric

Another material that umbrella makers employ is polyester. Polyester is typically less expensive but less light and UV resistant than olefin or acrylic fabric. For polyester to endure more than a year outside, it must be coated with a water-repellent finish and a UV inhibitor. It's a fantastic alternative for inexpensive umbrellas that won't be used for very long.

 

Made of thatch

Thatch parasols may have been spotted in a beach club in the Caribbean or Central America. Natural materials are used to construct an overhead covering in the roofing style known as "thatched umbrellas." Straw, leaves, and other regional natural resources are weaved together to form the roof of a thatched umbrella. These awnings are not rotted- and fade-resistant. These umbrellas typically need to be changed every five to seven years but have a rustic, genuine appeal.
