Large Beach Umbrellas
Beachfront resorts, hotels, and private clubs need the large beach umbrellas produced by American Holtzkraft. We offer investment-worthy site furnishings that provide shade, protect guests from harsh sun exposure, and contribute to a luxurious outdoor experience. We operate with a focus on quality, durable, and appropriate site furnishings that elevate the atmosphere of any hospitality venue.

The American Holtzkraft Promise
At American Holtzkraft, we’re known for producing industry-leading commercial umbrellas that withstand the toughest beach conditions. We have six different patents protecting our innovative designs and have won several ADEX awards for the quality of our designs. Since 1985, we have focused on producing strong, well-built, and beautiful pieces that speak to the safety, branding, style, and functional needs of our customers throughout the hospitality sector.
High-End Materials for Superior Functionality
The market umbrellas we manufacture are available in a plethora of sizes, including large umbrellas designed for seaside placement. Each piece we make consists of the finest materials.
The textiles chosen are marine-grade. They resist water damage, UV penetration, sun-fading, and staining. The strength of the textiles allows our umbrellas to remain intact and beautiful season after season with minimal maintenance required.
The components that piece together the major parts of the umbrella shouldn’t go unconsidered. We use stainless steel and solid brass hardware, sealing them for resistance to corrosion and damage despite use and coastal environments.
If the pole fails, the umbrella goes with it. We use aluminum or hardwood poles for strength and long life. Whether you prefer Northern Ash, Western Cedar, or Plantation-Grown Teak, the timber you choose will be slow-dried, sealed with multiple layers of marine-grade glue, and finished in the shade you choose. The aluminum poles are available in several standard colors and powdered finish options.
All of the products sold by American Holtzkraft are made in the US through the expertise of Pennsylvania Dutch artisans.
Personalized Beach Umbrellas and Other Site Furnishings
The umbrellas used by hospitality businesses should be personalized and used to enhance branding and style. A complementary design will elevate the guest experience. We provide extensive customization options, allowing you to create umbrellas that align perfectly with your brand’s image, as well as exclusive rights of use if you choose to exercise them.
Personalization Options for Canopies:
- Color
- Pattern
- Logo Design and Placement
- Pleating
- Stitching
- Shape
- Size*
*We strongly suggest that clients choose umbrellas with at least 2’ of added width to account for shade movement throughout the day. The luxury of continual shade will not go unnoticed by guests.
For larger beach umbrellas, we suggest that you opt for venting to mitigate winds, choose an appropriate base system for the environment, and choose an opening mechanism that suits your particular needs.
American Holtzkraft creates center-post umbrellas only. Cantilever umbrellas don’t meet our standards of safety, so we avoid passing the danger on to our customers.
