Superior Shade prioritises customer comfort

To keep guests comfortable in summer weather, many hotels and restaurants are choosing to add commercial shade umbrellas to their list of amenities. Waterproof umbrellas not only offer a break from the heat, they also shield patrons from the occasional drizzle. These wide commercial shade structures are not your typical umbrellas. They are a great fit for coastal areas where ocean breezes are common.

SRP Shade offers commercial umbrellas in sizes that range from 10" to 27" so that all of your locations can provide maximum comfort for guests. With 17 standard fabric colours, and some 40 choices when selecting the Ferrari 502 Satin fabric you’ve got decisions to make. The tough steel frame also comes in several powder-coat colours. Some of these umbrellas have internal channels that will allow the structure to be wired for lighting, heating, or a cooling mist.

If making customers comfortable is of importance to you, consider adding several patio umbrellas with a wide stance for lots of sun protection and shade coverage. Choose from square or hexagon shapes to match your style. With so much customisation to choose from, you can even match your umbrella with your brand’s theme and palette.
