CLEARANCE: Telescopic Parasols – Adjustable Shade, Effortless Style

Which colour provides the best sun protection?

All Sun Bella products have been rated UPF50+ which is the highest possible UPF rating. 

The colour of different fabrics can enhance or detract from the UV blocking effectiveness of some fabrics. However, all Sun Bella fabrics are so tightly woven that the colour does not affect the UPF rating of our parasols. 

Will these parasol protect me from the rain?

The new All Seasons range of UV Umbrellas are suitable for rain and sun.

Our Cosmopolitan range of parasols are rain resistant. The sun blocker treatment, applied to the fabric, causes water to bead off the canopy. However, they have a slightly smaller canopy than a rain umbrella as they are designed primarily as a sun umbrella - they can be angled to maximise your shade to protect your upper body, whilst being unobtrusive in a crowd.

I already have a rain umbrella, can’t I just use that?

A standard rain umbrella, made from regular black pongee fabric has a UPF rating of just UPF15. Your uv umbrella / uv parasol should specify on the tag that it has a UPF50+ rating to ensure that the maximum % of UV rays are blocked.
