Type E - Tulip Umbrella

Description

The E-type umbrella is a tulip-shaped model inspired by nature. Its unique design features a rising flower shape, allowing rainwater to be collected and drained between the Plexiglas cover and the umbrella pole. Depending on the anchoring option chosen, water can be drained into the ground, collected in a cistern, or drained above ground in the mobile version. Additionally, the E-type parasol can be equipped with intelligent systems such as a water filtration system. 

The tulip parasols can be customized with lighting, odour emission, and membrane imprints, creating an extraordinary atmosphere for any location or event. The umbrella is available in a square shape with sizes of 4x4m, 5x5m, and 6x6m, and in a round shape with diameters of 4m, 5m, and 6m. It can be opened or closed with a removable crank and has an aluminum frame with a plexiglass cover that surrounds the pole, enabling water to drain off. MDT-tex offers various membrane materials, including MDT-tex 260 FR, MDT-tex 480 PVC, and MDT-tex 680 PVC. 

The tulip parasol is versatile and can be used in various locations, from small gardens to large public spaces. Its individual design, with LED lighting and printable membrane, makes it the ideal brand ambassador for trade fairs, catering events, and other gatherings. The tulip umbrella can be illuminated in any color to create the desired atmosphere and can also be custom-printed to enhance events, public or private.
