In the Australian climate many businesses turn to commercial umbrellas to provide shade for their patrons. But not all outdoor umbrellas are designed to withstand the
harsh Australian summers and storm seasons.
Many café umbrellas and permanent umbrellas require employees to race around
and close or collect the umbrellas when a storm brews. If they are not
closed or collected in time, their outdoor umbrellas can become
dangerous missiles during a major storm. This is a safety risk for both
the employees and the patrons.
Skyspan Umbrellas have taken their existing high quality commercial umbrellas range and added in a new remote
controlled motorized umbrella. At the touch of a button, one or
all of the umbrellas within a business can be opened or retracted at
once. This saves time for employees and helps protect the outdoor
umbrellas and surrounding property from damage.
Wayne Downie from Skyspan said "all our umbrellas are made from the
highest grade materials to withstand up to a decade of hard use.
Everything including the fabric, steel stanchions, aluminium castings
and stainless steel cabling system is top quality and is finished off
with weather resistant coatings."
"We always have had a great range of cantilevered umbrellas and shade umbrellas. Our new motorized umbrellas take
commercial shade solutions one step further. Our motorised
commercial umbrellas are powered by Somfy motor concealed in
the column of the umbrella – making smooth and silent opening a
breeze."
All Skyspan commercial umbrellas are designed to withstand the summer
heat and storm season and are guaranteed for 10 years.
