GLATZ | GARDEN PARASOLS – SWISS SHADE, ENGINEERED TO LAST

If you want a parasol that does more than survive one summer, Glatz is the name to know. Manufacturing in Switzerland since 1895, Glatz builds parasols the way other people build furniture – precision aluminium frames, self-tensioning canopies and mechanisms that still feel smooth after a decade of British weather.

Why not visit our Hemel Hempstead showroom to see a Glatz parasol open and close for yourself. There’s a real difference between a parasol you fight with and one that lifts on a single turn of the crank, and it’s a difference you can only feel in person.

From a compact balcony parasol to a four-metre cantilever that shades an entire dining table, there’s a Glatz model to match your space and the way you use it.

fOUR mODELS TO CHOOSE FROM:

The SWR Glatz range runs from the compact Alu Smart, built for balconies and bistro tables, up to the Sombrano S+ – Glatz’s flagship cantilever, with canopies up to four metres across. Every model shares the same frame engineering and fabric quality; what changes is the size, the mechanism and where the mast sits.

See full side-by-side comparison below.

KEY FEATURES:

  • Swiss design and manufacture, with international patents across the range
  • Canopy fabrics with UV protection greater than 98% 
  • Self-tensioning canopies with flexible rib ends, keeping the fabric taut and crease-free
  • Anodised aluminium or powder-coated frames in matt white and anthracite RAL 7016
  • Round, square and rectangular canopy shapes across every model
  • 360° rotation on the Alu Twist and Sombrano S+ for all-day sun tracking
  • Wide choice of bases, ground sockets and wall fixings for patios, decking and balconies
  • Optional Osyrion Spot LED battery lighting with remote control
