NEW Aurora v2: Strong, sleek, superb next generation shade

When Instant Shade released the original Aurora cantilever back in 2018, it quickly became a favourite with homeowners who wanted maximum shade without a centre-pole in the way. The Aurora V1 already offered 360-degree rotation, unlimited tilt and a marine-grade aluminium frame. But outdoor living has moved on: decks have grown larger, alfresco kitchens have sprouted pizza ovens, and climate extremes keep testing fabric, hardware, and people alike. 

In-House Printing at Instant Shade: Custom Umbrellas Made Easy

Outdoor umbrellas aren’t just weather insurance; they’re eye-level billboards that travel wherever shade is needed. A logo on a 2.5-metre canopy is visible from 30 metres away and—unlike flags or pull-ups—keeps delivering impressions for years because people naturally gravitate toward shade. Industry studies on “object customisation” show that branded functional items drive higher recall than flat media, precisely because users interact with them for extended periods.

What Is An Outdoor Umbrella?

An outdoor umbrella is a canopy-like structure designed to provide shade and protection from the sun and other elements in outdoor spaces. It typically consists of a frame and a fabric canopy.

What Are The Different Types Of Outdoor Umbrellas?

Outdoor umbrellas come in various types, including market umbrellas, cantilever umbrellas, patio umbrellas, beach umbrellas, and commercial-grade umbrellas, each designed for specific purposes and settings.

How Do I Choose The Right Size Of Outdoor Umbrella For My Space?

To determine the appropriate size for your outdoor umbrella, measure the length and width of the area you want to cover. Consider the shape and dimensions of the umbrella and make sure measurements of the umbrella don’t exceed the measurements of your area. Always try and select the biggest umbrella that will fit in your space – you won’t regret having extra shade!

Are Outdoor Umbrellas Waterproof?

While good quality outdoor umbrellas are typically made from water-repellant canvas, they may not be entirely waterproof. However remember that your outdoor umbrella is not a permanent structure, and if the rain was so torrential as to leak through the umbrella canvas you would not usually be sitting under it anyway. For 100% waterproof solutions, consider a permanent structural umbrella.

How Do I Maintain And Clean My Outdoor Umbrella?

Regularly clean the fabric canopy with mild soap and water to remove dirt and stains – use a medium-bristle brush to assist with this. Make sure to remove stubborn stains like bird droppings and tree sap promptly and do not allow it to penetrate the fabric. Keep the frame and moving parts clean and free of cobwebs and dirt. Use a protective cover to prolong the life of the canopy and frame and store the umbrella in a dry, protected area during the winter months if possible.
