Umbrosa
Elegant & understated shade solutions
Umbrosa umbrellas are internationally recognized as unique shade designs that blend simplicity, ergonomics and elegance. Their stylish patio umbrellas, shade sails and bases reflect a modern sensibility that appeals to both residential and commercial installations alike. The sleek Spectra Cantilever Umbrella features a flat fan-like canopy that cuts through the wind and has a minimal silhouette. Their UX collection adds sophistication with coordinated monochromatic palettes between the base, frame and canopy fabric.
Umbrosa's designer patio umbrellas are inspired by nature
Renowned designers from around the world imbue Umbrosa umbrellas with creative vision and innovation. Nature serves as a major inspiration for these unique outdoor shades and distinguishes them from traditional parasols. Leaves, branches, trees and plants all influence how each design comes to life. The Icarus Cantilever Umbrella has an unforgettable leaf design that allows the canopy to act as both a sun shade and shelter from the wind.
State-of-the-art commercial-grade outdoor umbrellas
Umbrosa shade solutions are constructed using long-lasting anodized aluminum and UV-resistant textiles. Modern high-tech product design is at the heart of the company's portfolio. The Paraflex Wall Mount Umbrella and the freestanding variations integrate an articulating arm that allows you to precisely position the canopy or fold it away when not in use. Their stunning designs can be found from the world's most beautiful private terraces to five-star seaside resorts.

Be aware of wind gusts, they can easily be 3 to 7 mph stronger than the average wind speeds. The scale is purely advisory and Umbrosa cannot be held responsible for any wind damage.
