Effective Sun Protection for Balconies and Patios

Regardless of age - whether baby, child, adult or pensioner - effective sun protection is essential. The sun's ultraviolet rays can damage our skin and pose a risk to our health. It is particularly important for young children to make sure they get enough shade. There are various methods available to us to protect our skin from direct sunlight. Clothing, sprays and lotions offer a high level of protection from the sun. However, sunshades, awnings or sun sails are even more effective. They provide reliable shade and protect against UV radiation. Fabrics that have been tested in accordance with UV standard 801 offer you protection ranging from 10 to 80. With protection of 80, you can spend a whole 800 minutes under the sun protection without running the risk of burning yourself. Without appropriate protection, you should only spend 10 minutes in the sun. But which sun protection is right for you? This question is not so easy to answer. Depending on your furnishings and personal taste, different types of sun protection are suitable for your balcony or patio. Protect your skin and still enjoy the summer in the garden!

Hanging Sunshade, Double Umbrella or Sun Umbrella for the Beach? Find Here What You Are Looking for!

Every garden needs one: a sunshade! It protects against harmful UV radiation and provides shade. Sun umbrellas come in all shapes and colours. With a cantilever parasol, you can create a large area of shade under which your garden lounge or swimming pool can be perfectly positioned. The large double umbrellas are also suitable for large terraces and are also used in restaurants or summer bars. If you have a small balcony, you should use a conventional parasol, as these can be stowed away to save space and are set up in no time at all. Sun umbrellas with LED lighting create a real party atmosphere. The LED lights almost replace the garden lamp and create a romantic ambience on warm summer nights. Small beach parasols that you can simply stick in the grass or sand are ideal for a picnic in the countryside or a trip to the seaside.

Accessories such as parasol lighting, tarpaulins or special tables get even more out of your parasol. Last but not least, one thing should not be missing: the right base! From classic round or rectangular bases in black or grey to decorative stands with mosaic tiles, you can find all kinds of bases for your sunshade. When buying, make sure that your sunshade matches the base.

Awnings and Canopies - the Hip Alternatives to Sunshades

Sunshades are flexible to use and are also suitable for small balconies. Sun blinds can be retracted and extended as required. Models that do not have to be mounted on the outside wall of the house are ideal for rented flats. Balcony awnings not only protect from the sun, but also from the prying eyes of neighbours. In combination with side awnings or privacy fences, you can create a cozy retreat. In addition to awnings, our sun sails also provide attractive and practical sun protection for your balcony or patio. The colourful sails are available in various shapes and are easy to attach using ropes and hooks. Unlike conventional sunshades, they are also ideal for larger festivals or scout camps.
