Professional shade solutions made in Germany
A parasol for a private terrace and a large-scale shading solution for a hotel, restaurant or expansive pool area may look similar at first glance. Technically, however, the requirements can be very different.
This is where MAY stands out.
The German manufacturer specialises in high-quality parasols and professional large-scale shading systems, combining robust construction with extensive possibilities for individual configuration.
At KOYO Interior in Mallorca, MAY is particularly interesting when standard parasol dimensions are no longer sufficient or when architecture, wind exposure, colour requirements and the size of the area demand a more individually planned solution.
From elegant terrace parasols to 75 m² of shade
The MAY portfolio covers different dimensions and applications, but its large parasols are particularly impressive.
SCHATTELLO is a professional centre-pole parasol available in numerous round, square, rectangular and other configurations and is widely suited to demanding hospitality and commercial environments.
For considerably larger areas, the ALBATROS takes the concept further. Depending on its shape, it can reach up to 10 metres in diameter, 7 × 7 metres in a square configuration or 7 × 8 metres as a rectangular parasol.
A single ALBATROS can therefore provide up to approximately 75 m² of shade.
This opens interesting possibilities not only for hotels and restaurants but also for larger private properties in Mallorca. Instead of dividing an expansive dining or lounge area between numerous smaller parasols, one carefully planned large parasol can provide a more architectural and visually calm solution.
Frame colours, fabrics and configurations made for the project
One of the reasons we like working with MAY is the level of individualisation.
The aluminium frames are powder-coated and available in defined standard colours, while additional custom colours can be produced for a surcharge. This means that the frame does not necessarily have to remain a conventional white or anthracite.
For an individual project, the colour can become part of the architectural concept – coordinated, for example, with window frames, façades, metalwork, outdoor furniture or other elements of the property.
The canopy offers further possibilities. MAY provides an extensive selection of high-quality outdoor fabrics and colours, with more than 70 textile designs available across different fabric qualities for its professional large parasols. Special colours and additional fabric specifications can also be considered depending on the project.
For hospitality projects, canopies and valances can additionally be printed with individual branding.
The result is not simply a parasol selected from a catalogue, but a shading solution that can be configured around its environment.
Large parasols require proper planning
The larger the parasol, the more important the technical planning becomes.
A 7 × 8 metre parasol behaves very differently from a conventional terrace umbrella. Wind exposure, foundations, anchoring, positioning, opening clearance and the relationship with furniture all have to be considered before installation.
MAY’s professional systems are designed accordingly. The ALBATROS uses substantial extruded aluminium profiles and reinforced components, while its wind resistance has been verified according to relevant European standards. Depending on the model and installation, different anchoring and base solutions are available.
Operation can also be adapted to the application. Large models such as ALBATROS can be operated manually by crank, with a cordless drill or optionally with a tubular motor.
For us at KOYO Interior, this technical side is just as important as choosing the fabric colour.
On a property in Mallorca we look at the actual location: prevailing wind, orientation, desired shaded area, furniture layout, architecture and how the terrace is used during the day. From there we can determine whether a conventional parasol is sufficient or whether a professional large-scale solution makes more sense.

MAY is particularly interesting when a standard parasol is not enough. Depending on the project, we can configure the appropriate model, dimensions, frame colour, canopy fabric and installation solution for private villas and fincas as well as hotels, restaurants and other hospitality environments.
For larger parasols, we also consider positioning, wind exposure, required shaded area, furniture layout and anchoring. This is especially important for professional large-scale models such as SCHATTELLO and ALBATROS.
