Introducing Parasoleil from Fulton Umbrellas

Posted on February 17, 2012 by BrollyBoy

Para Soleil Umbrellas from FultonIt has certainly been an exciting week at Brolliesgalore. We introduced the new Tri-Brella from Fulton earlier this week, and now we have another range of umbrellas new in stock for 2012 to unveil to you today! The Fulton Parasoleil umbrella is sure to be a hit with our customers this year. Ideal for both rain and shine, this versatile and stylish umbrella will be this year’s must-have whether you’re out and about in town or relaxing by the beach on holiday!

As the name suggests, the Parasoleil umbrella is ‘for the sun’, and although most of us love the sun, unprotected exposure can be harmful. Therefore Fulton has utilised a high-performance waterproof fabric in developing the Parasoleil’s canopy, which has been technically developed to block more than 99% of harmful UV rays.

Parasoleil DetailsThe Parasoleil’s cleverly-designed canopy is composed of 4 layers. The first layer is composed of an acrylic water-proof material, which is then overlain by a second layer composed of a reflective silver material with anti-UV protection. The 3rd layer is composed of high-density nylon, which is topped off with a 4th water-repellent layer. This umbrella is therefore hugely versatile both as a parasol and as a traditional umbrella. Therefore in rain or shine, the Parasoleil should definitely be the choice for you!

Parasoleil UmbrellaThis manual, folding umbrella’s shake dry water repellency combined with its acrylic waterproofing features coupled with it’s UV protective layer offers superb protection from sun and rain. It has a very unique square-shaped cover that is guaranteed to turn heads. It is lightweight, convenient and benefits from a wind resistant design, reducing wind-shear and the possibility of wind-damage. It comes in a slimline clear zip case with colour matched piped edging and cheerful sun emblem zip pull. An ideal size to pack into any bag, or even in your hold-luggage for holidays in the sun, without putting too much of a strain on your baggage allowance!

  • Specially developed high density nylon fabric canopy with refelective sillver coating
  • Additional anti UV protective layer

  • Unique shading qualities
  • Keeps you cooler and more comfortable
