Free-arm sunshades from UHLMANN - design, stability and comfort in perfection for professional outdoor areas
UHLMANN Type FX - The free-arm sunshade for flexible shading and modern design
The UHLMANN Type FX is a premium-class cantilever parasol that perfectly combines functionality, stability and timeless design. Thanks to its side-mounted pole, it offers maximum freedom of movement and allows unrestricted use of the space under the parasol. With sizes ranging from three to five meters in diameter and a shade area of up to 25 square meters, the FX is the ideal choice for compact terraces, hotel areas or outdoor catering areas that require flexible shading with high stability. Made of powder-coated aluminum with a material thickness of up to ten millimeters and a pole diameter of 110 to 125 millimeters, this free-arm sunshade impresses with its high quality and durability. It is conveniently operated using a hand crank or crank pin, while the UV-resistant Sunacryl® fabric is color-stable, water-repellent and retensionable. The FX is therefore an elegant, durable companion for demanding outdoor areas - reliable, robust and technically precise.
UHLMANN type FX compared to other Uhlmann umbrella models
The FX model occupies a special position within the Uhlmann collection. While the TLX, TXV, TXS and TS models are designed for large areas thanks to their central pole or telescopic technology, the FX is impressive thanks to its lateral design, which allows more usable space under the sunshade. It shows its strength particularly in restaurants, patios or private terraces, where flexible use, easy access and harmonious design are equally in demand. The Uhlmann collection covers all requirements - from compact free-arm parasols to XXL large parasols for hotels, events and public spaces. The individual series complement each other perfectly: the TLX stands for large-area shading with telescopic technology, the TXV for particularly stable commercial systems and the FX offers maximum flexibility in a limited space. Uhlmann thus presents a holistic system that offers architects, restaurateurs and planners a wide range of options for shading areas elegantly and efficiently.
UHLMANN Type FX - technology, quality and frequently asked questions
For decades, Uhlmann has been manufacturing sunshades in true manufactory quality, consistently relying on German engineering. The FX type stands for maximum precision, wind resistance and convenient operation in daily use. The stable construction with its reinforced strut profiles is particularly popular, allowing the sunshade to stand securely even in changing weather conditions. Many prospective customers ask how wind-resistant a free-arm sunshade actually is, and the answer lies in the quality of the materials: aluminum with a high wall thickness, solid joints and secure ground anchoring ensure maximum stability. Another frequently asked question is whether the sunshade can be individually configured. In fact, Uhlmann offers numerous color variants and options such as radiant heaters, LED lighting or branding that adapt the sunshade perfectly to any environment. In this way, the FX combines technical strength with aesthetic appeal and creates durable, modern shading solutions for professional outdoor areas.
