ShadeZone have supplied and installed many of these great parasols in schools, colleges, nurseries and even university campuses across the UK.
Integrated Parasol Lighting & Heating
Creating an ambient mood, whilst the outdoor heating creates a pleasant temperature. With these helpful parasol accessories you can use your outdoor area for events or trade shows until late at night or offer a sheltered, outdoor smoking area under the Vortex parasol.
