Turn the handle, the canopy tilts: Lybra is the octagonal patio umbrella with EquiTilt® technology in the handle. The sun moves, the shade has to follow. Whether it's a backyard barbecue, 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 insert into the base, verified before shipping.
Aluminum crank to open the fabric. The EquiTilt® tilt function is built into the knurled handle: turn the handle and the fabric tilts – no extra controls needed.
Instructions for opening, tilting, closing, caring for your Acrishade fabric, and proper storage.
Lybra is Maanta's octagonal center-pole umbrella 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, smoothly and with unlimited intermediate positions.
For those who love spending time outdoors at home: residential gardens, spacious terraces, family poolside areas, villa patios, and interior courtyards with a dining table or lounge area.
Available in three octagonal sizes: 8'10" diameter, 9'10" diameter, and 10'10" diameter.
Yes. Our customer service team speaks five languages and can recommend the best size, color, and base for your space and lifestyle.
The Ø 8'10" covers a table for 4–6 people, the Ø 9'10" covers a table for 6–8, and the Ø 10'10" covers a table for 8 or a small lounge area.
Yes. Lybra comes pre-assembled and weighs no more than 19 lbs net. A single person is all you need to place it on your chosen base.
Measure the diameter of the area you want to cover and add 12" to 16" per side. Not sure which size is right for you? Reach out to us, our customer service team is happy to help you find the perfect fit.
It's the integrated tilt system built into the toothed handle positioned above the crank housing. Open the fabric with the traditional crank, then unlock the tilt by rotating the toothed handle above it: the more you rotate, the more the fabric tilts sideways gradually, with infinite positions. Two distinct gestures, two separate mechanisms, each precise in its own function.
Yes. The 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 any combination you like. Our design team recommends:
Yes, up to 19 mph, equivalent to Beaufort scale 5. We recommend closing the umbrella if storms or stronger winds are expected.
It's an aerodynamic opening at the center of the canopy, without an outer flap. It lets gusts escape, reduces pressure on the fabric, and keeps the umbrella stable on windy days.
Yes. Lybra is compatible with two separately sold lamps: the Magnetic 2-in-1 Light (Ø 10 15/16", 2,500 mAh, dimmer) and the LED Clip Lamp (Ø 7 7/8", 1,600 mAh, 3 modes, warm light).
Insert the pole into the chosen base, release the perimeter velcro strap, and turn the crank clockwise until it reaches the end stop: the fabric opens and stretches taut.
With the shade sail open, rotate the toothed handle located above the crank socket: the more you turn it, the more the sail tilts sideways gradually, until you reach your preferred angle. No buttons, no end stops: the tilt stops exactly where 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 backward, turn the crank in the opposite direction until fully closed, then secure the perimeter velcro strap to keep the fabric compact against the pole.
No, the base is not included. Lybra comes with the umbrella only (frame + canopy + crank + velcro strap). The anchoring base is a separate accessory that must be chosen and purchased separately — the product cannot stand on its own without a base.
Lybra requires a base, not included, sold separately. Compatible models are:
Use a soft brush and lukewarm water with mild soap. Avoid stiff brushes and harsh detergents. Rinse thoroughly and let it air dry — never put it in the dryer.
Close the canopy, secure the velcro strap, cover it with the optional protective cover, and if possible, move the umbrella to a dry, well-ventilated space.
For brief, light rain, yes — the fabric is water-repellent. For thunderstorms, strong winds, or extended rainfall, we recommend closing it to protect the product.
Yes. Contact our customer service team to order a replacement fabric in the size and color of your choice.
