Four Seasons

Sun Parasol

Design Thomas Bernstrand

The Four Seasons sun parasol is a sturdy year-round design that deflects the heat of the sun and provides shelter from the rain. Made from pieces of sheet steel circling around a steel post, the base bolts securely to the ground. The central support post can remain upright or be installed to tilt away from the base at an angle of up to 86°. Once the installation is complete, the support post will remain upright or permanently titled, as the angle cannot be adjusted afterwards. Four Seasons adds a contemporary element to city gardens, food courts and open courtyards, or any environment where shelter and shade are needed.

Metal surface finish

GF for Yellow RAL 1023, fine powder paint
VF for White RAL 9010, fine powder paint
C for any color other than standard, starting cost is added.

Choosing non-standard colours for Four Seasons requires consideration as the parasol is coated with a fine structure powder paint that matches the colour of the silicon on the edges. Silicone is available in a number of corresponding RAL colours but may have to be specially mixed to match a non-standard colour.

The following RAL colours are available in silicone: RAL 1004, 1016, 1018, 1021, 1023, 1028, 2002, 2004, 3000, 3003, 3013, 3018, 3020, 3027, 4002, 4003, 4004, 4005, 4006, 5002, 5010, 5018, 5024, 6005, 6007, 6017, 6018, 6020, 6021, 6028, 6033, 6034, 7011, 7016, 7022, 7038, 7040, 8003, 8015, 9002, 9005, 9010, 9011, 9016.

Materials and surface treatments

The parasol is made in 1.5 mm aluminium sheet steel. The post and top-cap are made in 5 mm steel sheet and the base is made in 10 mm sheet steel. The protective flaps fitted along the parasol's edge are made in silicone. All steel parts are zinc-electroplated, chromed and powder-coated.

Aluminium

Aluminum is a soft light metal that is silvery to gray in color. Depending on the alloy, aluminum usually has good corrosion resistance. It is common for the aluminum to be extruded into tubes or rolled into a plate in the desired material thickness.

Steel

Nola uses high-quality steel with good strength in our products. Steel rusts if left untreated and must therefore be surface treated. 

Powder coating

Powder coating is a coating that is applied as a free-flowing, dry powder. Unlike conventional liquid paint, powder coating is usually applied electrostatically and then cured under heat or with ultraviolet light. The result is an even, hard-wearing coloured surface with the desired gloss level.

Concrete

Concrete is cement mixed with crushed stone or aggregate. The material is very strong in compression but fragile in tension. To compensate for this concrete can be reinforced, often with steel. 

Assembly and placement

Delivered in parts for assembly on site.

The base bolts to a concrete surface or can be cast in concrete beneath the ground. The central support post can remain upright or be installed to tilt away from the base at an angle of up to 86°. Once the installation is complete, the support post will remain upright or permanently titled, as the angle cannot be adjusted afterwards.

Maintenance

Powder coated Aluminium

Products that are powder-coated can be touch-up painted with alkyd paint if necessary.

Powdercoated steel

Products that are powder-coated can be touch-up painted with alkyd paint.

Concrete

Both normal concrete and fibre-reinforced concrete are sensitive to hard edge impacts. A concrete product that has been damaged can be repaired with polyester filler, such as the product “Plastic Padding”.
