Acrylic awning fabric (standard)
The tried and tested acrylic awning fabric is manufactured from 100% spinning nozzle dyed brand acrylic fabric. That means that the colour pigments – unlike in classic yarn dyeing – are applied during the fibre production. This ensures reliable protection against damaging UV radiation and permanently guarantees brilliant colours / constant weather and light-fastness. Furthermore, the acrylic fabric is especially tear-resistant and also dirt and water-repellent thanks to its impregnation with a special protective agent. The reliable solution for long-term outdoor use.
- Water-proof up to 300-370 mm water column, EN 20811
- High colour and weather fastness (7-8) of 8
- Water and dirt-repellent
- 100% acrylic 285–300 g/m²
- Commercial printing possible on canopy and valance
Acrylic awning fabric LUMERA
The innovative Lumera acrylic fabric is woven with the special CBA fibre (Clean Brilliant Acrylic). Along with all the benefits of the acrylic fabric, this provides even more bonuses. The acrylic multifilament fibre has a smoother and denser surface. This means that the colours turn out richer and more radiant and the fabric’s luminance is increased for a long time.
- Water-proof up to 460 mm water column, EN 20811
- High colour and weather fastness (7-8) of 8
- Water and dirt-repellent
- 100% acrylic 290 g/m²
- Commercial printing possible on canopy and valance
Swela Sunvas Uni
This 100% polyester fabric has an innovative and effective dirt and water-repellent SNC impregnation. This makes the fabric air-permeable, weather-proof and resistant to rooting. The fabric also has a high elasticity without permanent stretching. It is therefore optimally suited for outdoor use.

- High light and weather fastness (7-8) of 8
- Chlorine fastness (4-5) of 5
- Polyester mesh with SNC impregnation

Frame colours for masts and struts
You can find over 200 RAL colours here.
High-grade hub

High stability: The Centro parasol is equipped with an especially strong and solid aluminium hub. Powder coating is available in any chosen RAL colour with a slight up-charge.
Elegance on the rise

Extremely easy to use: Samara can be opened and closed with a detachable stainless steel crank. The mechanism inside the mast ensures that the parasol can be closed easily with minimal physical effort.
Sophisticated telescopic system

The advantage: when closing, the telescopic mechanism extends the pole! Tables and patio furniture can simply stay where they are.
Stable struts

The parasol struts, made of 2 mm thick aluminium tube, are reinforced with special profiles in sections under particular strain.
