Umbrella Base EDA 565 mm, plastic square stand, fillable with water or sand, grey, UV-resistant

EDA umbrella base, square plastic stand with a 565 mm footprint designed to support garden and patio parasols. The body is fillable with either water or sand to increase ballast and improve wind stability. Constructed from UV-resistant grey plastic, the base is intended for outdoor use on terraces, balconies and other seating areas where seasonal shading is required. The design accommodates standard parasol poles and fastens with a central fixing system for straightforward installation.

Advantages

The EDA 565 mm plastic umbrella base offers a balance of portability and stability: when empty it is light to move, and when filled with water or sand it provides sufficient weight for most domestic parasols. UV-resistant material reduces color fading and material degradation from sunlight exposure, extending the usable life of the stand. The square footprint gives a stable contact area on flat surfaces while the simple assembly and central clamp allow quick mounting and removal of the parasol.

Suitable for (tasks / use cases)

• Securing garden and patio parasols on terraces and balconies
• Temporary shading at outdoor seating areas for homes and small cafés
• Seasonal use where storage and occasional relocation are required

When it may not be suitable

This plastic umbrella base is intended for domestic and light commercial use; it may not provide sufficient ballast for very large parasols, umbrella models with wide cantilevers, or in locations with frequent strong winds. It is not a permanent anchoring solution for exposed or public spaces where higher safety factors and more robust foundations are required.

Key specifications

• Shape: square footprint
• Size/footprint: 565 mm
• Material: UV-resistant plastic
• Color: grey
• Fillable: yes — water or sand
• Mounting: central fixing/clamp for parasol pole
• Intended use: outdoor, seasonal shading

How to use

Position the empty stand on a level surface and insert the parasol pole into the central fixing. Tighten the clamp or fastening mechanism to hold the pole upright. Fill the stand with water or sand to the recommended level for the desired ballast and re-check the clamp tightness. For relocation, empty the stand first to reduce weight, move to the new position and refill. Store the parasol and base in a sheltered place during prolonged periods of bad weather or winter months to reduce wear.

What to consider before purchase

• Measure the parasol pole diameter and check compatibility with the central fixing system
• Assess the parasol size and local wind conditions to determine required ballast
• Decide whether a fillable plastic base meets durability needs compared with heavier permanent bases

Usage recommendations

For typical domestic parasols, fill the stand with sand for greater weight or with water for convenience. Always tighten the central clamp after filling and avoid leaving large parasols open in strong winds. Empty the stand before moving and store it indoors during freezing temperatures to prevent material stress.
