A New Standard in Beach Safety
Windblown beach umbrellas have become a recognized safety hazard, prompting the development of ASTM F3681-24 — a new safety standard created by American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) and published by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission to address the risks of unsecured umbrellas on beaches.
How it Works
Anchor Works makes setting up fast, intuitive, and reliable. Simply attach the anchor to the umbrella and bury the base securely beneath the sand. The sand inside the base provides the weight, keeping the umbrella anchored in high winds.
Design and Specifications
Our system was created to solve the everyday challenges of beach operations — from portability, to setup efficiency and visual appeal. The result is a portable, high-performance, and reliable anchoring system that simplifies operations with quick, intuitive setup.
Designed for efficiency, it features a stackable build for easy storage and adaptor inserts for seamless integration with existing inventory. This clean, professional system complements any beachfront atmosphere with a sleek, minimal design that stays concealed below the surface of the sand.
