Parasol Paradise ™ is the European portal for bamboo parasols and bamboo umbrellas made in traditional, small-scale artisanal manufacturing in the Golden Triangle of Northern Thailand.
These parasols are produced in our dedicated Parasol Paradise workshop. Our bamboo parasols and umbrellas are handmade with renewable materials in environmentally and socially friendly working conditions.
Product showroom
The overviews on our website show the three main models of our standard production: Thai, Fabric and Paper bamboo parasols. It includes various models of bamboo patio and garden parasols, and bamboo hand parasols. A number of types are waterproof and therefore also protect in the rain.
We also customize per buyer request.
On order
We produce to order. We do produce on continuous basis, with an extensive stock of components to produce various orders directly and quickly. This helps us to produce efficiently with low costs. We do maintain a limited stock for incidental consumer purchases.
No shopping cart
Contact us for your question or your purchase, We do not maintain an automated shopping cart (it cannot cope with the quick changes in shipping). This also helps us to know our clients better.
Market-oriented
Our bamboo hand umbrellas are affordable, solid and strong, with an attractive appearance. Bamboo garden and patio umbrellas do not have to cost a thousand euros. All models emanate the essential facets of Atmosphere, Protection, and Environmentalism.
SMEs
Our market generally consists of retailers, hotels, cafes, restaurants, event organizers, existing companies and start-ups. And the consumer, if our products are not available locally.
Wholesale with low MOQ
As a small manufacturer, we offer wholesale prices with low minimum order quantity.

Parasol Paradise™ is not present in virtual market places such as Amazino, Alibarexess, Vetsie or other virtual sales websites. In some cases our local customers may have a presence on European sites. To order directly from the workshop with corresponding factory price, contact us here.

Protection
We make modern and traditional bamboo parasols and umbrellas for
- sun protection
- rain protection
- UV protection (a/b/c)
- public social distancing
- promotion and decoration, with
- renewable, biodegradable materials in
- environmentally responsible manufacturing and use
Environmentally responsible
Bamboo grows very quickly and abundantly in our local tropical environment. We harvest only selected fully grown poles of specific species, and we do not harvest in the rainy season when new bamboo sprouts emerge from the ground.
Plastic free
Due to bamboo's fast growth and abundant presence, its use for the manufacture of our parasols and umbrellas is per definition environmentally responsible: our bamboo replenishes quickly, there is no depletion of raw materials, no pollution, the products are natural and they are easily biodegradable. This cannot be said of hardwood, steel, nylon and most plastic products.
No laminates
We do not use laminates. No industrial crushing, adhesive and high pressure processes take place. We have developed a sustainable process to protect bamboo from insects and fungus in a natural way.
Soft wood
Our parasols and umbrellas use some small wooden parts. These are the top, ferrule, runner and handle. These are made from local rural softwood. This fast-growing wood does not come from forests or rainforest.
Individual initiative
Given the current issues surrounding carbon dioxide, nitrogen, PFAS and disposed plastic, it is time for not only government policy, but also a personal approach to combat climate change and environmental pollution. Here, every single individual measure counts, no matter how big or small.
More bamboo
That is precisely why we make our bamboo products, and why we argue for a larger share of eco-friendly bamboo products in the parasol and umbrella market. So consider a bamboo patio or garden parasol, or bamboo hand umbrella, for daily protection and a good atmosphere. Get rid of polluting plastic and unstable metal ribs for parasols and umbrellas that don't even survive a gust of wind.
Experience
Our workshop and our export sponsor JEDI International, Ltd. have more than 15 years of experience in the development, production and export of bamboo parasols and bamboo umbrellas for the English-speaking market, worldwide. In addition to our own items, we also produce for a number of high-quality brand names.
Socially friendly - fair trade
We follow the guidelines of the fair trade organization WFTO. We do not strive for a certificate; the administrative requirements are not realistic for an independent, small-scale, artisan manufacturer.
Sales outlets
We are seeking to expand our representation at independent sales outlets in Europe, the UK and Australia.
- When desired, we list your point of sale of our products on this website and social media.
- We handle consumer requests if the requested products are not available locally.
