Unveiling the Functions and Cleaning & Maintenance of Outdoor Sun Umbrellas

Outdoor parasols—also known as Roman umbrellas—are commonly used in villas, hotels, restaurants, cafes, and various leisure venues, including coffee shops, villa gardens, terraces, outdoor beaches, and bar streets. The area beneath the umbrella is spacious and allows for flexible placement of outdoor furniture. The umbrella canopy can be freely rotated to provide flexible shade and block sunlight effectively. Compared to other types of umbrellas, Roman umbrellas offer superior sun protection and are much easier to operate. The rotation and height adjustment of a Roman umbrella are controlled via a handle, making it effortless and convenient to use. Typically, standard-sized Roman umbrellas come in four main specifications: a large square umbrella with a side length of 3 meters; a round umbrella with a diameter of 3 meters; a small square umbrella with a side length of 2.5 meters; and a small round umbrella with a diameter of 2.5 meters. The umbrella pole is independently positioned on one side, maximizing the usable space beneath the umbrella. For square Roman umbrellas, custom double-top models are available, featuring an additional wind-resistant canopy that enhances breathability and wind resistance.
