Design your Glatz parasol
Parasol configuratorAnyone looking for something special for sophisticated outdoor areas should check out the exclusive VITA® models. All three guarantee excellent UV protection of up to 98% and longevity thanks to their cover fabrics in the highest fabric quality (5). Manufactured with the typical Swiss attention to detail, absolute precision and a high degree of craftsmanship, these parasols impress with their elegant, purist design language and exceptional user-friendliness. You’ll always find the design you want with a choice of 55 fabric colours and impressive, elegant frame colours in a choice of silk grey or anthracite. The high quality is reinforced by the leather corners on the flexible strut ends, ensuring that the fabric is always well stretched. A protective cover is included. Elegant bases with castors in matching silk grey or anthracite, available as an option, ensure maximum flexibility and excellent shading that follows the path of the sun.
VITA® Sfera – an elegant parasol with ample space under the canopy
With a VITA® Sfera from Glatz, the owner makes a statement in understated luxury and joie de vivre. Inspired by the canopy of a tree and characterised by harmonious architectural shapes, it helps create a stylish ambience. Matching the architecture, the lounge furniture or as a colourful feature on the patio or by the pool, the canopy is available in colours suitable for this side-mast parasol. Its wonderfully light, floating appearance is created by the flat ribs, the internal support arm and the vertical pole.
The best decision for optimum shade and ease of use: The VITA® Sfera can be opened synchronously and aligned horizontally using a crank, can be tilted in both directions up to 54° on both sides using a tilting rod and can be conveniently rotated 360° thanks to the ball-bearing turnable base with pedal. All controls are visually integrated and ergonomically well thought out. The parasol is available in four different sizes, including a 375 cm diameter version, as well as 350 ×350 cm and 400 × 300 cm.
VITA® Torna – the ergonomic design purist
The sunshine and warmth of summer awaken a sense of ease and lightness within us. The VITA® Torna translates this feeling into a floating, weightless design. This centre-pole parasol can be easily opened and closed using the crank, which automatically returns to its downward position after use. The parasol roof can be rotated 360° using a practical clamping lever. A swivel mechanism allows the tilt to be set all the way up to 32°. For this model, Glatz also focused on elegant design in timeless colours and high-quality materials. Thanks to an internal support tube, the parasol appears seamless. The shade provider is available in six sizes, with a diameter of up to 330 cm and 240 × 240 cm or up to 250 × 200 cm.
VITA® Piana – compact, minimalist, long-lasting
You don’t need much space for a wonderful summer’s day. All you need for your own little oasis of well-being is a timelessly elegant parasol with ingenious details. Available in round sizes from 220 to 300 cm, square up to 240 cm, or rectangular up to 250 × 200 cm, the VITA® Piana centre-pole parasol is designed for relaxed garden seating, poolside lounging or use on a secluded balcony. It impresses with its high-quality workmanship and ease of use. A sliding mechanism for opening and closing, a rotary knob for height adjustment and the option to tilt the parasol roof up to 32° and rotate it 360° make this model a timeless shade provider for patios and the like. The internal support tube also makes this model look seamless, which adds to its elegant appearance. Because the lower pole can be pushed almost completely into the upper pole, the parasol requires very little space for storage.
VITA® Collection – exclusive, purist, high-quality
The new VITA® Collection is synonymous with exclusive sun protection, making it ideal for individually designed patios or gardens. The models will be available from selected specialist dealers from 2026, who will also be able to provide customers with comprehensive advice on choosing the right sun protection.
