When choosing a patio or beach umbrella<\/strong>, we often focus on the size, shape or colour of the cover, but we neglect a very important element for the functionality<\/strong> of the product: the base<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Choosing the right base for our <\/strong>parasol<\/strong><\/a>, whether it is placed in the garden<\/strong>, on the terrace <\/strong>or on the beach<\/strong>, is essential to ensure stability and wind resistance<\/strong>.\u00a0 Crema Outdoor umbrella bases<\/a> are designed to meet different needs and are a detail to be taken into account to customise the design of the parasol<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Choosing the right umbrella base: placement and use<\/h1>\n

\u00a0<\/strong>The first factor to be evaluated in choosing the base is the positioning of the umbrella<\/strong>: the place <\/strong>where we are going to put it, the space <\/strong>available and the characteristics of the ground<\/strong> all affect the type of base to choose. A grassy garden, a paved terrace, or a sandy beach need different supports to ensure safety and functionality<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Another determining factor in the choice of the base is the way in which we will use<\/strong> our parasol<\/strong>: will we need to move it during the season<\/strong>? Do we prefer a fixed structure<\/strong>? Of course, the type (central pole or side arm) and size of the parasol also come into play in these evaluations.<\/p>\n

Crema Outdoor umbrella stands are made from high quality materials<\/strong> and are fully customisable<\/strong>. Let’s now see in detail the three types of support.<\/p>\n

Free-standing parasol base\u00a0<\/strong><\/h3>\n

If you want to position and move the parasol easily<\/strong>, mobile bases <\/strong>are the ideal solution. These allow us maximum flexibility to “move” the shaded area where we like.<\/p>\n

Free-standing bases for beach umbrellas<\/strong><\/a> are made of concrete<\/strong>, washed gravel<\/strong> or steel<\/strong>, with rubber feet and edges.<\/p>\n

Larger parasol support frames<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0 are made of steel <\/strong>with concrete ballasts<\/strong>, and can be decorated with elegant base covers<\/strong> that, with the addition of cushions<\/a>, become comfortable seats<\/strong>. We can also install adjustable and extendable wheels or feet <\/strong>to make them easier to move, even with heavy umbrellas.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"Base<\/p>\n

Umbrella base to be fixed<\/h3>\n

Umbrella bases to be fixed<\/strong> to the ground guarantee a small footprint<\/strong> and excellent stability. They represent a convenient and unobtrusive solution<\/strong>, especially for already constructed reinforced concrete foundations.<\/p>\n

This solution is suitable both as a base for smaller parasols and as a support for larger parasols, thus taking advantage of the reduced footprint of the base, being just 1 cm high.<\/p>\n

Umbrella base to be cemented<\/h3>\n

The third type of base <\/strong>is the one to be cemented or buried<\/strong>: particularly suitable for terraces, bars, restaurants and green areas of hotels<\/strong>. It is perfect if we want a permanent solution<\/strong>, with a minimal footprint.<\/p>\n

This can also be used as a support for small parasols and as a base for larger parasols.<\/p>\n

The umbrella base as a design element<\/h2>\n

Selecting the right base is not only a functional choice to fix and stabilise our parasol<\/strong>, but also allows us to complete the design<\/strong> of the product, thanks to the ability to choose the material <\/strong>and colour <\/strong>we prefer. Bases also become an opportunity for additional seating or practical storage compartments.<\/p>\n

Crema Outdoor also offers professional bases for gazebos<\/a>, to make these outdoor structures safer and more comfortable.<\/p>\n
