Big Ben – The impressive giant umbrella for hospitality

Stunning 100km/h (63mph) in the wind tunnel! That’s what you can see in the YouTube-testvideo of the 3x3m (9’10”) version of giant umbrella Big Ben, which was designed specifically for the hospitality business. The extremely resistant umbrella was built to withstand even the highest stresses. After all the manufacturer CARAVITA intends, that it should be possible to let the umbrella installed outside throughout the whole year. This is possible because of the sophisticated construction as well as high quality materials like aluminum and stainless steel.

Thanks to a variety of sizes and shapes Big Ben is also amazingly flexible. With diameters of 3-7m (9’10”-23’) octagonal it reliably covers both the smallest and the largest areas. In addition to that, the many rectangular sizes provide suitable solutions for small cafes with narrow terraces. Combined with gutters and side curtains an individual weather protection can easily be created.

Despite its size and robustness, comfort does not go short. Even the largest sizes of the CARAVITA-umbrella can be opened effortlessly with a removable stainless steel crank handle. The integrated telescopic mechanism closes the umbella above table height, thus ensuring that repsective furniture does not have to be removed first.

Elegance, the integrated LED light option for Big Ben, will make your terrace shine bright. Designed to be elegant and unobtrusive, the modern LED-strips provide pleasant light, allowing for the terrace to be used in the evening. LEDs and wiring are installed permanetly and do not have to be removed when closing the umbrella. The lights can be operated conveniently with a remote control.

With integrated heating, Big Ben provides pleasant temperatures even on cool days.

This way, the season can be extended by a few months. All wires are securely concealed inside of the frame. The removable SOLAMAGIC heaters, can be attached either to the mast or the struts.

Giant umbrellas are the best advertising for hospitality, especially on busy streets. Big Ben is visible from afar and attracts potential customers from a distance. This effect can even be increased with an advertising print or a suitable color. Therefore, individuality is a top priority at CARAVITA. More than 100 fabric colors are available, i.e. to have the canopy match the corporate colors. Valance and canopy provide space for individual advertising prints.
