Amazonas was formed in 1995 and creates a wide range of cotton hammocks and hanging chairs as well as frames including its own babies’ and toddlers’ line of baby hammocks, carrying systems, children’s hanging chairs and baby hammock frames as well as an outdoor line of extra-lightweight hammocks and accessories for survival experts and leisure adventurers. Inspired by the original Brazilian hammock tradition, it has its own production site in the northeast of Brazil, the hammock-making centre of the whole of South America. The Beach Hammock Set is a hammock and frame set measuring up at approx. 304 x 91.5 x 78.5 cm with a laying surface of 200 x 100 cm and a max weight capacity of 100kg whilst just weighing 11.5kg, making it easy to move around the garden to catch the last of the sun.

The powder-coated black stand is easy to put together; simply snap the poles in place and press the button to release them again, it can easily be packed down and stored away in the shed when winter arrives. The bright and colourful cotton hammock is made from EllTex (extra long lasting textile) which can be hung outside even when it is raining or when the sun is burning hot thanks to the mix of polyester and cotton that is very weatherproof, fade and tear resistant even after repeatedly getting wet. Amazonas use shredded cotton cloth from the textile production, this is a sensible and eco-friendly way to support the sustainable environment protection, with fewer cotton fields resulting in fewer pesticides and less water usage. The wooden spreader bars prevent the hammock from wrapping around you too much, making it more comfortable and easier to get in and out of. Once you master the technique of sitting in it, it’s a wonderfully comfortable place to watch the world pass by, it is compact enough that you can take it in the car on camping holidays and festivals or simply enjoy in your own garden whilst adding a splash of colour at the same time.
