Parasol Frame
The difference may not be obvious at first sight: but the large-size parasols from Bahama have an inner and an outer pole that optically come together to form one center pole. Better sturdiness also means better stability and the corresponding safety.
Center pole with Outer and Inner pole
Extra stability through extruded, internally strengthened and profiled aluminum center pole
Pole diameter approx. 220 mm, wall thickness approx. 10 mm
Impact and scratch resistant due to PES powder-coated center pole, post-baked
Standard frame in traffic white | RAL 9016 or in custom color according to RAL
Resin components in white or black
Cylindrical lock on the crank insert and, if necessary, on the motor cover prevent unauthorized opening and closing
Spokes, Support Spokes, Bearings and Hinges
The quality of a parasol can only be as good as its supporting and connecting parts.
All aluminum parts pickled, powder-coated, fired at approx. 190°C
Bolts, screws and other functional parts made of V2A stainless steel

Handling
The models with dimensions up to a diameter of 10 m (round) or 9.3 x 9.3 m (square) are opened and closed using a hand crank with the aid of a reduction gear. All other sizes are generally motorized, but also have a hand crank. Anyone generally wanting to make life easier can also equip any smaller model size with a motor and avoid using a crank.
Opening
- Insert the key and turn it to the right in the OPEN direction
- Or: Insert the hand crank in the slot provided and turn it clockwise
Closing
- Insert the key and turn it to the left in the CLOSE direction
- Or: Insert the hand crank in the slot provided and turn it counter-clockwise. Should you intend to keep the parasol closed for a longer period, attach the safety strap
The excellent appearance and the technical features of the textile membrane can be maintained by adhering to the following closing procedures:
Always pull the tips of the fabric to the outside of a closed parasol
Do not store the parasol with any fabric stuck between the spokes and support spokes
Spirally wrap the fabric around the center pole
Wrap the safety strap around the parasol to secure the fabric

Sustainability and Environmental Compatibility
The betex®05 fabric, exclusively crafted for Bahama, and the resulting textile membrane are certified exclusively according to the OEKO-TEX 100 standard, Class 1 which is awarded by independent institutions. Class 1 meets the demands of baby clothing with skin contact.
The OEKO-TEX pollutant test corresponds to the respective intended use of the textiles and materials. In Germany there are clear and reliable criteria for environmental compatibility and sustainability. Bahama demands of its products that every defect or damaged part can be replaced.
Made in Germany
Bahama’s customers always refer back to the great importance of our German production facilities. »Made in Germany« is still a unique selling point and a reason to buy. Bahama‘s full range production facility is located in Germany.
The combination of the highest quality materials and structural features allows Bahama to guarantee the wind stability of its products, depending on the model, up to 130 km/h. In addition to the technical details of the parasol, it is especially the lightfastness of the fabrics’ colors, the waterproofness and grammage as well as the water column of the textile membranes which make Bahama top of its class. Trust is placed in Bahama by luxury hotels such as the Burj Al Arab in Dubai, the Hotel Sacher in Vienna and the Dalí Museum in St. Petersburg, USA.
Service
Service greatly influences the life span of a parasol. The exchangeable textile membrane of a Bahama parasol can – after being exposed to all sorts of weather conditions for years – be cleaned or replaced. Our service makes a full technical and general overhaul of the product such that they not only look attractive, but can defy the strongest of winds.
No matter where you need Bahama’s service, the Bahama team or one of our expert partners will be glad to help – worldwide.
UV-Protection
Analogous to the sun protection factor/SPF all textiles are labeled with an ultraviolet protection factor/UPF. Built into the fabric it protects against hazardous UV radiation. Bahama uses the fabric brand betex®05 for the production of its parasol textile membranes. This material fulfills the requirements for UPF50+, which indicates an »excellent« dermatological UV protection factor and allows less than one fiftieth (<2%) of the UV radiation through the textile membrane onto the skin.
