As part of our commitment to sun protection, Shelta Australia takes care to select highest quality, dense weave fabrics that look beautiful and protect your loved ones. Our fabrics have been tested and rated for UPF (Ultraviolet Protection Factor) by accredited Australian laboratory ARPANSA, using AS/NZS4399. On high UV days an umbrella provides protection from direct sunlight, but there is significant reflected UV light from sources such as water and sand. We recommend the use of protective clothing and sunscreen while enjoying the great outdoors. |

SAFETY:
Shelta umbrellas are not permanent shade structures and must be lowered when unattended or in windy conditions. Excessive wind puts great stress on the frame, which can cause damage to the umbrella and danger to people. Shelta domestic umbrellas are not recommended for exposed environments such as high balconies or roof tops. Please carefully follow the installation instructions provided with the umbrella; if in doubt, consult a qualified trades-person. Only use recommended Shelta bases or anchoring systems.
CARE:
When not in use, close the umbrella and cover with a Shelta Easireach Cover. Before storing, make sure the umbrella is dry and keep in a dry, shaded location.
Fabrics may be treated with a fabric protector such as ‘Scotchguard’ for additional protection. Soiling can be minimised by simply brushing off dirt before it becomes embedded in the fabric or spot cleaning soon after stains occur.
To clean umbrella canopies, lightly brush the open umbrella with a mixture of mild detergent and warm water. Rinse thoroughly and leave the umbrella open until completely dry.
