From a new configurator engine to expanding the number of ways to customize your shade, our latest update has a wide variety of new and improved features!
Updated Models and a New Configurator Engine
We've rebuilt the Shade Designer on a new configurator engine and refreshed every model in the lineup. Improved geometry, refined materials, and sharper detail mean what you see on screen better reflects the umbrella we'll deliver — and the new engine surfaces more product detail than ever before.
Expanded Shade Options
There are now more ways than ever to make your umbrella your own. Customize the underside of the canopy, choose from new multi-color fringe options, and combine details in ways that weren't possible before — all visualized live as you design.
New and Enhanced for 2026
The Shade Designer now matches the most common products and shade options from the 2026 Catalog, including updated mounting options for our Giant and Cantilever umbrella collections.
New Configuration Code Feature
Retrieving a designed configuration is now easier than ever. On the main menu, you can enter a unique 5-character configuration code to instantly pull up any shared design.
Updated Spec Sheets
Product specifications have been refreshed and consolidated into an updated reference document, making it easier to pull the details you need when finalizing a project. Each sheet also includes the design's configuration code for easy retrieval later.
Updated Fabric Catalog
Our fabric catalog has expanded as well, now featuring the new SENS brand from Recasens alongside Tempotest fabrics — giving you more high-quality options to bring your vision to life.
