Innovation — The Patented Absorbent Cover
The Beau Nuage Absorbent Cover: The innovation that changes everything
No more wet umbrellas that you don't know what to do with. Our patented absorbent cover absorbs water without wetting your personal belongings.
Problem Solved
Why do ordinary umbrellas get everything wet?
You enter a restaurant, an office, or public transport with your dripping umbrella. You put it in your bag: everything is soaked. You put it in an ordinary cover: the cover is quickly saturated and water leaks through. You leave it at the shop entrance: you are sure to forget it.
This problem, as old as the umbrella itself, Beau Nuage has solved with a 3-layer cover featuring patented absorbent technology. The solution is simple in appearance, but no one had designed it correctly before us.
The Beau Nuage Patent
"The idea is simple: a cover that absorbs water instead of letting it run. The difficulty was finding the right assembly of materials: sufficiently absorbent on the inside, completely waterproof on the outside, and fast-drying to be reusable."

The Technology in Detail
3 Layers, 1 Patent, 0 Puddles
Inner layer: Absorbent microfiber
An ultra-absorbent microfiber capable of absorbing up to 200 times its weight in water. On contact with a wet umbrella, it immediately captures the moisture and traps it.
Intermediate layer: Waterproof membrane
A waterproof membrane totally blocks the passage of water absorbed by the microfiber to the outside. The water remains trapped inside the cover, regardless of the quantity.
Outer layer: Treated rPET fabric
The outer fabric made of recycled rPET with Teflon® treatment finishes the cover with a clean, dry surface that is waterproof to external splashes. Your bag stays dry, and so does your cover.
Absorbent Cover FAQ
Your questions about the absorbent cover
How do I dry the absorbent cover after use?
Remove the umbrella from the cover as soon as possible after use. Leave the cover open in the fresh air — the microfiber dries naturally in 1 to 2 hours depending on conditions. Do not use a high-temperature tumble dryer. The cover is ready to be reused as soon as it is dry.
Does the absorbent cover work with other brands of umbrellas?
The absorbent cover is designed for Beau Nuage umbrellas (The Original, The Automatic, The Mini). It can also be ordered separately as an accessory for use with other umbrellas of a similar format — provided they fit in the cover.
Is the absorbent cover washable?
Yes, the cover is machine washable at 30°C, without fabric softener. Fabric softener reduces the absorbing power of the microfiber. Air drying is recommended. It retains its absorbent properties after washing.
