Parasol for cafe
There is nothing better than when the calendar says spring, the sun’s rays begin to warm, and the temperature rises in the shade. Spring does something to us – and it often leads to some form of outdoor activity. If it is finally warm enough to enjoy a cup of coffee outdoors at the favorite cafe with a blanket over the legs and a coat to warm the upper body, we are very happy to do that!
Therefore, it is also important that you do not compromise on your outdoor area – whether it concerns seating, sun shading, or heating lamps. Everything you do can indeed extend your outdoor season and thus give you even more guests!
When we talk about furnishing an outdoor area for a cafe, it is of course impossible to avoid a parasol! It takes up space and may even ruin part of the aesthetics, but the features are undeniable:
- They can be set up and taken down, depending on whether your guests want to sit in the sun or prefer shade.
- If it is positioned correctly, it can provide a bit of shelter from the cool wind.
- In Denmark, it is inevitable that a shower will come from time to time. With a good parasol, you do not have to cancel all outdoor serving due to a little rain.
This is what you need to be aware of
There can’t be that much hocus pocus in finding the right umbrella, can there? Nevertheless, there are some points that you should be aware of so that you don’t end up with an umbrella that doesn’t meet your needs.
Size
- The size of the umbrellas you need will of course depend on the size of your outdoor area. Here, you should consider whether you want a couple of large umbrellas that can shade a larger area, or if you would prefer to attach a small umbrella to each table. If you choose a smaller umbrella, the advantage may be that guests can decide for themselves whether they want shade or sun.
Features
- We are all familiar with the primary function of the umbrella, but umbrellas have various additions that you might benefit from understanding before making your choice. For example, might you need to tilt your umbrella? Or do you prefer to be able to adjust the height? There are many options, so make sure to have a handle on your needs so you end up with the right umbrella!
Design
- Many café owners enjoy enhancing the outdoor area, and here the umbrellas are also an important prop. The umbrellas often take up a lot of space, and if your café is characterized by green or blue colors, it would be natural to choose umbrellas in the same shade.
Use the umbrellas as a promotional column
In extension of the design of the umbrellas, many cafes choose to use the umbrella as an advertising column because there is ample space for a logo. You can also choose to add the cafe’s own logo or name to personalize the design. At Zederkof, we can certainly help you get the right print, so you get exactly the umbrella you desire.
