Our Story

Carlson Cabana reimagined the design of the classic beach umbrella using the highest quality sustainable fabric with zero air + water microplastic pollution. Our revolution launched when founder Jenny Carlson grew tired of watching friends struggle to secure their umbrellas in the sand only to lose them in the wind. As a mama of four sandy groms, she embarked on a journey to blend a classic cabana-style beach umbrella with an innovative sand anchor design to keep her little ones safe in the shade.  

Our California beaches tell a story of a beautiful, surf paradise and we are proud to announce that our 100% fully recyclable fabric has Global Recycled Standard Certification with UV 50+ protection. To continue to preserve our slice of paradise, a portion of our proceeds will be donated back to nonprofits that aim to protect our oceans. 

Welcome to the Carlson Cabana Family

 

SUSTAINABLE CANVAS

The most sustainable cabana fabric on the planet. The perfect blend of easy care with a natural look and feel without a single drop of water used for fiber production.

  • Antimicrobial technology, which infuses silver-ion active ingredients into the matrix of the yarn. This advanced technology ensures that no germs or microbes can grow in the fabric and cause unpleasant odors.

  • The recycled yarn is made from regenerated raw materials, obtained from post-industrial production and other textiles materials used in the automotive sector and are Global Recycled Standard Certified.

  • Extremely durable, and UV+50 rated, this cabana is engineered for years of use.

  • Zero Air & Water Microplastic Pollution, Solvent & Silicone Free, and Fully Recyclable.

A Rock Solid Foundation

Our innovative powder-coated aluminum anchor provides the perfect foundation to stand up to those gusty beach days and a breeze to set up. Simply give it a few turns and the unique cork-screw design will anchor itself.

β€œWe have owned dozens of beach umbrellas over the years and I can tell you the Carlson Cabana is not only the prettiest but the most robust by far!”
