Features
Features of the high-quality ISKIOS garden umbrella
UV protection
The quality of the fabric plays an important role. Every garden umbrella casts shade during the day, but it does not automatically protect you from harmful UV rays. The UV protection of a garden umbrella depends on the weight, density and material of the umbrella fabric. ISKIOS uses fabrics with high UV protection for its garden umbrellas.
The fabric's resistance to the sun is essential
The UV rays contained in sunlight affect the fabric of a garden umbrella. They make vivid colours fade. With an ISKIOS garden umbrella you can still enjoy the original colour even after many years.
Wind resistance
Garden umbrellas are exposed to the wind. A strong gust will easily overturn a poorly built garden umbrella. It will break or even fall over. This can damage the umbrella frame or its fabric. We put every umbrella model through a durability test in order to recommend the right umbrella construction for your space. The sturdy construction using only high-quality materials, reinforced fabric corners, reinforcements on the ribs and fixing with a bolted flange make the umbrella extremely wind-resistant.
Rain resistance
ISKIOS garden umbrellas are highly rain-resistant, so you can use your space even when it rains.
The higher the water column of the fabric used, the better the protection against rain. The fabrics we use have a high water column, so rain cannot penetrate them, and a social gathering in the garden can carry on under the umbrella without problems even in the rain.
Sizes
Types and sizes of Garden Umbrellas
We manufacture a very wide choice of garden umbrellas, in square, rectangular and round shapes, with a side pole, in sizes from two to seven metres, and in hundreds of colour and fabric design options.
- Garden umbrella with a side pole: This design provides maximum shade coverage with minimal space required for support, which can be very convenient, especially in small outdoor areas, so that the umbrella's support pole does not get in the way
- Garden umbrella with a central pole: This umbrella is the classic umbrella design. The pole is placed exactly in the centre, under the canopy of the umbrella. The advantages of this classic model include ease of use and very high stability in the wind.
Round or rectangular/square umbrellas?
Whether you choose a round or a rectangular umbrella depends on where you use it and on your personal design preferences. Whichever shape of umbrella you choose, ISKIOS guarantees the highest standards of quality and longevity.
Some criteria you can take into account regarding the shape and construction of the umbrella are the following:
- Rectangular umbrellas
Rectangular umbrellas are harder to find. This alone is what makes them so impressive. In limited spaces, rectangular umbrellas can be placed perfectly in corner areas and can be positioned flush with the wall of the house. Common umbrella sizes here are 3×4, 2×3, 3×5, 4×5 - Rectangular or square umbrella with a side pole
The poles of these umbrellas are at the side, giving you generous space to place furniture directly under the canopy of the umbrella. Several rectangular umbrellas with a side pole can be placed next to each other to create a continuous shaded area.
- Large umbrellas from five to seven metres
ISKIOS large umbrellas meet the highest requirements for wind stability, longevity and functionality, and create large outdoor gathering areas in winter and summer.
Some criteria you can take into account regarding the size of the umbrella you choose are the following:
- 2 metre umbrella
For very small spaces, balconies, sports areas on lawns - 3 metre umbrella
Offers shade that can comfortably accommodate four people. A 3 metre umbrella is ideal for outdoor areas and is available in various designs.
- 4 metre umbrella
It is ideal because it creates a large shaded area, provided there is outdoor space, and it requires very good anchoring to the ground. - Large fixed umbrellas up to 7 metres
They offer reliable protection from UV radiation, wind, rain and cold. They are mainly for professional use (cafés, restaurants, educational institutions, business courtyards), but could also be installed in your garden to shade large outdoor areas such as barbecue areas, to cover your car parking, or to extend the outdoor areas of your home instead of using other, more expensive and permanent structures.
Special features
Special features of the umbrellas
- Telescopic operation, which makes it easy to open and close the umbrella without obstructing the tables and chairs underneath it
- Pulley systems for opening and closing the umbrella, which make it easy to use and easy for you to repair without needing a specialist technician

Benefits
Benefits of Using Professional Umbrellas in the Garden and at Home

Types
Types of Professional Umbrellas for the Garden and Home
There are various types of umbrellas that can be used, depending on the needs of each space:
Heavy duty umbrellas with a central pole
The most common choice for gardens. They offer stability and are easy to move. They are suitable for limited spaces and provide effective shade.
Large Umbrellas (ATLAS)
Coverage of large areas (35-40 square metres per umbrella) with very strong resistance. They are sturdier and suitable for spaces in areas with harsh weather
Side pole umbrellas
Umbrellas with a side pole, because their pole is located at the side, are ideal for free use of the entire space under the umbrella, which makes it easier to place tables and chairs without restrictions.
Super Heavy Duty Telescopic Umbrellas
Telescopic umbrellas are the most popular choice when you want an umbrella size of 4×4 and above. They have a mechanism that allows easy opening and closing without obstructing the tables and chairs, and they are highly durable.

Construction Materials of Professional Umbrellas for the Garden and Home

Choosing
Selection Criteria for Professional Umbrellas for the Garden and Home
Choosing the right umbrellas requires considering several parameters:
Size and Shape
The size and shape of the umbrella depend on the needs of the space. Round umbrellas suit smaller spaces, while square ones cover a larger area.
Weather Resistance
Weather resistance is a decisive factor when choosing an umbrella. Super heavy duty umbrellas and large umbrellas are ideal for areas with frequent winds.
Operating Mechanisms
Umbrellas may have a manual or automatic opening mechanism. Manual mechanisms are more economical, while automatic ones offer greater convenience.
Aesthetics and Design
The look of the umbrella should match the overall appearance of the garden and the house. Customised colour and design options help create a unified style.
Maintenance

- Cleaning and storage: Cleaning them and storing them in protective covers when not in use extends the life of the umbrellas.

- Protection tips: Closing the umbrellas in strong winds and using heavy bases increase their stability.
Customisation
