Rain or shine, enjoy your outdoor activities with an essential accessory: an umbrella resistant to strong winds, made in Cherbourg-en-Cotentin with extremely robust materials.
The Antibourrasque is the world's strongest umbrella. Subjected to winds of 155 km/h in a wind tunnel, this accessory does not break. As its name suggests, it is a gust-proof umbrella suitable for extreme conditions: storms, gusts... Nothing can resist it.
This wind-resistant umbrella owes its sturdiness to its frame. It is made of fiberglass, a material that bends without breaking. The Antibourrasque is handmade with a straight or curved wooden handle, and 19 taffeta colors are available for its fabric.
Le Sport has an automatic opening and a manual closing function. You can quickly unfold it in the rain, during your hikes, fishing trips, and sports sessions.
At the top of its galvanized steel mast, there is a set of fiber ribs. With this sturdy frame, le Sport withstands winds of 140 km/h during wind tunnel tests.
The design of this automatic windproof umbrella allows it to match any outdoor outfit. Le Sport features a taffeta canopy, a straight or curved handle, and hardware with ruthenium finishes.
The Antibourrasque and le Sport are our most wind-resistant umbrellas. The other models in our collection are no exception! They are all wind tunnel tested and offer excellent resistance to gusts and gusts.
Le Golf has a straight beech handle and a wide canopy that can accommodate two people. It has a galvanized steel shaft and solid carbon steel ribs, just like le Palace .
Le Pébroque also has carbon steel ribs, but we have given it a beech shaft. Available in 10 chic colors, it combines luxury and strength.
These three sturdy umbrellas can withstand winds up to 138 km/h.
For each of our windproof umbrellas, we test its wind resistance in the laboratory, in a wind tunnel.
During these performance tests, we subject the umbrella to winds of progressive intensity. We observe the reactions of the accessory, in particular its sail and the frame. We check that the ribs do not break, and that the mast remains straight.
In each individual product sheet, we indicate the maximum wind speed tolerated by the anti-gust umbrella, without bending or breaking. This way, you know what weather conditions your Cherbourg Umbrella can withstand.
Wind tunnel tests show that our umbrellas are extremely wind resistant, even to violent gusts.
We owe the reliability of our windproof and gust-proof umbrellas to the high quality of the materials used. These elements are assembled by hand, by a small team of women and men, in our workshop in the heart of Cherbourg city center.
From cutting the canvas to checking the finished product, including sewing the panels and fixing the ribs to the canvas, around forty steps are necessary to make a wind-resistant umbrella, like the Cherbourg.
