Turn the handle, the canopy tilts: Lybra is the octagonal garden parasol with EquiTilt® technology in the handle. The sun moves, the shade has to follow. Whether it's a garden party, a dinner with friends by the pool or the Sunday family lunch: the shade follows the sun — adjust the tilt with a single motion.

Lybra is the umbrella in the range featuring gradual EquiTilt™ tilting: turn the crank and the canopy opens, rotate the knurled handle and Lybra tilts progressively, stopping exactly where you want.
Combined with the 360° rotation of the pole in the base, you can direct the shade in any direction without moving the base or lifting the pole.

Combined with the 360° rotation of the pole in the base, you can direct the shade in any direction without moving the base or lifting the pole.
Rotate the handle: the more you turn, the greater the tilt angle of the canopy. Infinite intermediate positions, no preset click stops.
260 gsm solution-dyed acrylic developed for outdoor umbrellas. UPF 50+, water-repellent, colour fastness grade 4 for 1,500 hours certified in laboratory.
Eight commercial-grade ribs. Stiffer than fibreglass, they keep the canopy taut and the profile even after repeated openings.
Aerodynamic opening at the centre of the canopy, without a flap. Releases gusts and reduces pressure on the fabric in winds up to 30 km/h.
Colour pairings designed by Centro Stile Maanta, our in-house style office in Italy, curating palettes and outdoor collections.
Three compatible bases, additional weight block, two dedicated pole lamps, protective cover. Lybra is a system — every piece works with the others.

Pre-assembled frame, Acrishade fabric already secured and perimeter velcro strap included. Ready to fit into the base, checked before dispatch.
Aluminium handle to open the fabric. The EquiTilt® tilt function is built into the knurled grip: turn the handle and the fabric tilts – no additional controls needed.
Instructions for opening, tilting, closing, caring for the Acrishade fabric and storage.
Lybra is Maanta's octagonal centre-pole parasol featuring EquiTilt® technology: open the canopy with the traditional crank, then rotate the toothed handle above it and the canopy tilts in any direction you choose, gradually and with infinite intermediate positions.
Designed for those who love spending time outdoors at home: residential gardens, spacious terraces, family poolsides, villa patios, and inner courtyards with a dining table or lounge area. Whether you have a classic British garden or a stylish outdoor living space, this is the perfect solution for making the most of every moment outside.
Available in three octagonal sizes: 2.7 m, 3.0 m and 3.3 m in diameter.
Yes. Our customer service team speaks five languages and can recommend the most suitable size, colour and base for your space and lifestyle.
The Ø 2.7 m covers a table for 4–6 people, the Ø 3.0 m a table for 6–8, and the Ø 3.3 m a table for 8 or a small lounge area.
Yes. Lybra arrives pre-assembled and weighs a maximum of 8.7 kg net. A single person is all you need to position it on your chosen base.
Measure the diameter of the area you want to cover and add 30–40 cm on each side. If you're unsure, get in touch with us: our customer service team is here to help you choose the right option.
It is the integrated tilting system built into the toothed handle positioned above the crank socket. Open the canopy using the traditional crank, then unlock the tilt by rotating the toothed handle above it: the more you rotate, the more the canopy gradually tilts to one side, with infinite positions available. Two distinct actions, two separate mechanisms, each precise in its own function.
Yes. EquiTilt® technology tilts the shade sail sideways relative to the pole. To choose which direction to cast the shade, simply rotate the pole manually within the base: free 360° rotation.
Acrishade, a 260 gsm solution-dyed acrylic developed for Maanta. UPF 50+, water-repellent, and UV-resistant for 1,500 hours at grade 4.
Yes, you can choose whichever combinations you like. Our design team recommends:
Yes, up to 30 km/h, equivalent to Beaufort scale 5. We recommend closing the parasol if strong winds or storms are forecast.
It is an aerodynamic opening at the centre of the canopy, without an external flap. It allows gusts to escape, reduces pressure on the fabric and stabilises the parasol on windy days.
Yes. Lybra is compatible with two lamps sold separately: the Magnetic 2-in-1 Light (Ø 278 mm, 2,500 mAh, dimmer) and the LED Clip Lamp (Ø 200 mm, 1,600 mAh, 3 modes, warm light).
Insert the pole into your chosen base, release the perimeter velcro strap, then turn the handle clockwise until it reaches the end stop: the fabric opens and stretches taut.
With the shade sail open, rotate the toothed handle positioned above the crank socket: the more you turn it, the more the sail tilts to the side gradually, up to the angle you prefer. No buttons, no end stops: the tilt stops wherever you stop rotating. To change the direction of the shade, rotate the pole in the base.
Bring the handle back to the vertical position by rotating it backwards, turn the crank in the opposite direction until fully closed, then secure the perimeter Velcro strap to keep the fabric neatly folded against the pole.
No, the base is not included. Lybra comes with the parasol only (frame + canopy + crank handle + velcro strap). The anchoring base is a separate accessory that must be chosen and purchased separately — the product cannot stand without a base.
Lybra requires a base, not included, to be purchased separately. The compatible models are:
Use a soft brush and lukewarm water with mild soap. Avoid hard brushes and harsh detergents. Rinse thoroughly and leave to air dry — never put it in the tumble dryer.
Close the canopy, fasten the velcro strap, cover it with the optional protective cover and, if possible, move the parasol to a dry and well-ventilated space.
For brief, light showers, yes – the fabric is water-repellent. For heavy rain, strong winds, or prolonged rainfall, we recommend closing it to protect the product.
Yes. Contact our customer service team to order a replacement fabric in your preferred size and colour.
