Auriga is the tilting cantilever garden parasol by Maanta that brings light and shade exactly where you need them: the sun moves, Auriga follows. From a garden dinner party to a summer evening under the stars: precise shade by day, warm light by night.

Auriga has a mechanical core we call Heliflow®. The same central component controls both the canopy tilt and the coverage height: the shade moves wherever needed without ever repositioning the base.
The result is a consistently effective shade cone over the relaxation area, from lunch to sunset.
Auriga has a mechanical core we call Heliflow®. The same central component controls both the canopy tilt and the coverage height: the shade moves wherever needed without ever repositioning the base.
The result is a consistently effective shade cone over the relaxation area, from lunch to sunset.
A single central joint controls both the canopy angle and coverage height. The shade cone stays precise without repositioning the base.
A floor pedal allows you to rotate the entire canopy 360°. Reorient the canopy without standing up, even when the umbrella is open, following the sun.
LEDs in every slat, solar panel in the pole, remote control with dimmer. Magnetic 2-in-1 Light included: attachable to the pole or removable for table use. No wiring required.
The lateral arm leaves the area beneath the canopy completely clear. No pole in the centre: tables, sun loungers and outdoor seating can be arranged without any obstruction.
Three frame finishes, six canopy colours: every combination is curated by Centro Stile Maanta, our in-house design studio in Italy. Nothing left to chance.
Solution-dyed acrylic fabric, 260 gsm. Waterproof, UPF 50+, colours stable at 1,500 hours of solar irradiation at grade 4.

Auriga is born from Maanta's research into premium outdoor parasols and is sourced through a dedicated manufacturing partner, overseen by our quality department at every stage.
For those who live outdoor life to the full: homes with terraces and gardens, villas with swimming pools, restaurant and lounge bar outdoor dining areas, and relaxation spaces at hotels and resorts.
In two square formats: 3×3 m and 3.5×3.5 m.
Yes. Our customer service team speaks five languages and can recommend the best size, colour, and base for your outdoor space.
The 3×3 m version is ideal for a table of 4–6 people or a small seating area. The 3.5×3.5 m comfortably covers a table of 6–8 people or two sun loungers side by side — perfect for making the most of your British garden or terrace.
Auriga arrives pre-assembled. Positioning it on the base requires two people for safety, especially in the 3.5×3.5 size.
The 3×3 size is ideal for intimate spaces or areas where shade coverage needs to be balanced with foot traffic. The 3.5×3.5 is perfect for those who want the maximum shaded area beneath the sail.
It is the central joint that simultaneously adjusts the fabric inclination and the coverage height. Follow the sun without moving the base and keep the shade cone precisely over your relaxation area.
There's a foot pedal at the base: with your foot, you release the rotation and orient the canopy 360° around the pole, even when the parasol is open.
Using the included remote control. Auriga features 8 aluminium slats with LEDs powered by the solar panel integrated into the pole.
Acrishade, a 260 gsm solution-dyed acrylic developed exclusively for Maanta. UPF 50+, water-repellent, and fade-resistant with 1,500 hours of UV exposure at grade 4.
Yes, up to 30 km/h, equivalent to Beaufort 5. To ensure stability at that level, a base of at least 120 kg is required. We always recommend closing the parasol if storms or stronger winds are forecast.
Yes, they are designed for outdoor use and resistant to rain and moisture.
It is a removable magnetic light: attach it to the parasol pole for a soft glow over the table, or detach it and use it freestanding with its stand, just like a portable lamp.
Attach the pole to your chosen base, release the perimeter velcro strap, and turn the crank handle until fully open. Follow the step-by-step manual included.
Using the same opening handle, in the final part of the movement. Heliflow® tilts the fabric and adjusts its height simultaneously.
Press the pedal at the base of the pole with your foot. The mechanism unlocks and you can rotate the canopy with one hand.
It charges automatically using sunlight. For the first full charge, we recommend leaving the panel exposed for a full day.
Use a soft brush and lukewarm water with a mild soap. Avoid hard brushes and harsh detergents. Rinse thoroughly and leave to air dry.
Close the canopy, secure the Velcro strap, cover it with the protective cover and, if possible, move the parasol to a dry indoor space. Remove the Magnetic Light and store it inside.
The warranty lasts seven years on the aluminium structure and three years on the Acrishade fabric, starting from the date of delivery.
