Premium Acrylic Awning Fabric:

The high-quality acrylic awning fabric is made of 100% solution-dyed branded acrylic. Unlike conventional yarn dyeing, the color pigments are incorporated directly during the fiber production process. This ensures highly reliable protection against harmful UV radiation while maintaining long-lasting, vibrant, and lightfast colors.

The robust acrylic fabric also impresses with its high tear resistance. A special protective finish makes the material water- and dirt-repellent. This provides a durable and proven solution for long-term outdoor use.

Premium Acrylic ProNature:

With Acryl ProNature, CARAVITA presents an innovative fabric option with added value: a special finishing treatment actively contributes to improving air quality. Through a photocatalytic process, pollutants such as nitrogen oxides, sulfur oxides, and organic compounds are reduced – while unpleasant odors are neutralized at the same time.

SAMARA

The comfortable crank umbrella!

The heart of Samara, a stainless steel screw jack, allows opening by crank with minimal effort. When closing, it extends the mast so that the umbrella closes above table height. As easy as child's play, the shade dispenser with its smooth-running crank mechanism unfolds its true size and warmly welcomes its guests. Samara doses hot sun rays during the day and ensures pleasant temperatures under the umbrella in the evening. Even in its largest version, the visually lightweight parasol is amazingly easy to operate.

Aluminium rings made of solid aluminum and double-layer struts made of reinforced aluminum ensure that Samara can withstand even high stresses despite spans of up to 5.5m round.
