Description
The parasol that opens and closes with a single push
UP is the elegant, contemporary, and surprisingly intuitive Poggesi parasol. This model from the VELUM collection combines an essential aesthetic with an ease of use without precedent, redefining the concept of practicality in outdoor living. Designed for those who experience outdoor spaces dynamically, it opens and closes with a single push movement, delivering impeccable sun protection in seconds. It is the choice of those who will not wait, but demand the highest elegance with the least effort.
Push mechanism: shade secured with a single movement
The technological heart of this centre pole parasol is its innovative push mechanism. Unlike traditional crank systems, the UP model responds to a natural input: a single fluid upward movement and the structure opens instantly. The speed of opening and closing makes it a valuable operational tool and an intelligent furnishing complement, where utility merges with simplified high-precision mechanics.
Ideal settings
Thanks to its speed of action and slender design, UP stands out as the finest outdoor parasol for:
- Elite resorts: where the speed of daily shade management is fundamental to guest service.
- Bars and bistros with dynamic outdoor seating: perfectly suited to responding promptly to changes in light or guest requirements throughout the day.
- Private terraces and poolside areas: for those who desire a contemporary parasol that can be opened or closed as easily as an everyday gesture, with a minimal footprint when not in use.
