Shade yourself in style when you're relaxing in your garden with the Christow 3m Banana Parasol. Designed with a large 3-metre canopy in a choice of contemporary colours, it provides sensational shade from the sun whilst giving outdoor spaces a stylish, modern look. UV Protection The canopy is made from tough 180g polyester for ultimate durability. It also has a UPF 30+ rating to protect you from the sun's damaging ultraviolet rays. Crank Handle The parasol is incredibly easy to set up. Simply release the locking lever and move the arm of the parasol to an overhanging position. It's then a simple of case of pressing the locking lever to lock the arm in place and turning the crank handle to open up the 3-metre canopy. Air Vent An air vent helps to reduce wind pressure to prevent it pulling the parasol upwards. It also allows heat to circulate, so the canopy is cooler to sit beneath. Steel Construction The parasol frame and 4.5cm cross-base are made from steel for enhanced durability. This makes it heavier and sturdier than an aluminium parasol for greater wind-resistance. Rust-Resistant All of the steel parts are powder-coated for rust-resistance and long-lasting outdoor use, including the cross-base, canopy ribs, crank handle, pole and arm of the parasol.
