Description
The Manutti Centra Max Umbrella 300 × 400 cm is the large rectangular format of the Centra Max umbrella range — a 300 × 400 cm / 118.1" × 157.5" rectangular canopy on an anodised aluminium or teak natural central pole, opening to 210 cm / 82.7" height and closing to a total height of 284 cm / 111.8". The 300 × 400 is the most expansive single-canopy format in the Centra Max range, delivering 12 m² of rectangular overhead shade coverage — suited to large outdoor dining tables, extended lounge compositions, resort pool decks, and hospitality terraces where a rectangular shade footprint is preferable to a square format. Unlike the 300 × 300 which is available with an aluminium pole only, the 300 × 400 is available with both an anodised aluminium pole and a teak natural pole — the teak natural option pairing with warm-toned teak outdoor furniture compositions for a fully cohesive natural material aesthetic. The Sunbrella canopy fabric is available in three colourways — Canvas, Black, and Taupe — across both pole options.
Key Features
- 300 × 400 cm Rectangular Canopy — 12 m² Coverage: 300 × 400 cm / 118.1" × 157.5" rectangular canopy format delivering 12 m² of overhead shade coverage — the largest and most generous single-canopy format in the Centra Max range. The rectangular format suits long outdoor dining tables, extended lounge seating arrangements, and wide terrace compositions where the elongated 4 m depth provides shade to a greater number of seats across a single canopy span. Opens to a clear height of 210 cm / 82.7" beneath the canopy — sufficient clearance for all standard outdoor seating, dining, and lounge furniture configurations.
- Two Pole Options — Anodised Aluminium and Teak Natural: The 300 × 400 is the only Centra Max umbrella format available with both an anodised aluminium pole and a teak natural pole. The teak natural pole option is unique to this rectangular format — delivering the warmth and natural material quality of solid teak to the umbrella's central structural element, creating the most cohesive material combination when pairing the Centra Max with teak furniture collections. The aluminium pole option delivers a lighter, lower-maintenance pole suitable for all outdoor furniture styles and colour schemes.
- Larger Pole Diameter — 6 cm / 2.4": The 300 × 400 uses a 6 cm / 2.4" pole diameter — larger than the 4.8 cm pole of the 300 × 300 — reflecting the greater structural loading of the extended 400 cm canopy dimension. The 55kg and 80kg Centra Max granite bases are compatible with both the aluminium and teak pole versions of the 300 × 400 at this diameter.
- Sunbrella Canopy Fabric — Three Colourways: Canvas, Black, and Taupe Sunbrella canopy fabric options across both pole configurations — all delivering Sunbrella's UV resistance, waterproof performance, fade resistance, and solution-dyed colour stability for outdoor canopy use. Available with both the anodised aluminium and teak natural pole options.
- Protective Cover Included: A protective cover for the closed canopy is included — recommended for use whenever the umbrella is closed to protect the Sunbrella fabric from dust, debris, and prolonged direct UV exposure when not deployed.
- Compatible with 55kg and 80kg Centra Max Granite Bases: Both the aluminium and teak pole versions of the Centra Max 300 × 400 are compatible with the 55kg without-wheels fixed base and the 80kg with-wheels mobile base — providing a fully integrated Centra Max freestanding shade solution without in-ground fixings.
Parasol Frame Options
The Centra Max Umbrella 300 × 400 cm is available with Anodised Aluminium or Teak Natural pole — the only Centra Max umbrella format offered in both pole materials.
Anodised Aluminium — powder-coated anodised aluminium pole; lightweight, corrosion-resistant, and suited to all outdoor furniture styles and colour schemes. Compatible with all three Sunbrella canopy colourways. Teak Natural — solid teak natural pole delivering warm, organic teak material quality to the umbrella's central structural element; the most cohesive combination when pairing the Centra Max 300 × 400 with Manutti teak furniture collections including Torsa, Kobo, and other teak-frame outdoor ranges. Both pole options are compatible with the 55kg and 80kg Centra Max granite bases.
Canopy Fabric Options
Three Sunbrella canopy fabric colourways — UV-resistant, waterproof, and fade-resistant solution-dyed acrylic fabric. Available with both Anodised Aluminium and Teak Natural pole options.
Canvas — warm off-white natural tone; the most versatile neutral colourway integrating with any outdoor furniture and terrace material — pairs equally well with both the aluminium and teak pole options. Black — deep, fully saturated black canopy; the most architectural and contemporary option, delivering strong contrast against light terrace surfaces — pairs most precisely with the aluminium pole for a monochromatic contemporary shade composition. Taupe — warm greige mid-tone; pairs most naturally with the teak natural pole and warm-toned teak furniture, travertine, and stone terrace surfaces for a cohesive warm-neutral outdoor living arrangement at the 300 × 400's expansive scale. All three colourways are Sunbrella solution-dyed acrylic — UV-stable and waterproof.
Materials & Construction
Anodised Aluminium or Teak Natural Pole & Frame
Anodised aluminium option: powder-coated anodised aluminium ribs, frame structure, and 6 cm central pole — corrosion-resistant and structurally engineered for the extended 300 × 400 cm rectangular canopy span. Teak natural option: solid teak natural central pole with aluminium rib and frame structure — the teak pole delivers warm organic material quality to the umbrella's most visible structural element while the aluminium frame maintains lightweight structural rigidity across the full 12 m² canopy span. Both pole options are compatible with the Centra Max 55kg and 80kg granite bases.
Sunbrella Canopy Fabric
Solution-dyed acrylic Sunbrella fabric — woven from colour-saturated yarns before fabric construction, providing UV colour stability, waterproof performance, and mould and mildew resistance for long-term outdoor canopy use. The Sunbrella canopy is easily cleaned with mild soap and water; the protective cover supplied with the umbrella should be used when the canopy is closed to maximise fabric longevity.
Usage & Care
Large Rectangular Shade for Outdoor Dining & Lounge Settings
300 × 400 cm / 118.1" × 157.5" rectangular canopy opening to 210 cm / 82.7" clear height — suited as a primary shade structure for large outdoor dining tables, extended lounge seating arrangements, resort pool deck zones, hotel terrace dining areas, and hospitality outdoor settings where a single 12 m² rectangular shade canopy is required. The teak natural pole option makes this the most natural pairing for teak outdoor furniture collections. Pairs with the 55kg fixed base for permanent installations or the 80kg with-wheels base for mobile repositioning.
Maintenance
Anodised aluminium pole and frame: no treatment required — wipe with mild detergent and water. Teak natural pole: periodic oiling recommended to maintain warm natural tone; weathers gradually to silver patina if left untreated. Sunbrella canopy: brush off loose dirt dry; wash with mild soap solution and rinse thoroughly; allow to air dry fully before closing. Close the canopy in high winds. Use the included protective cover whenever the umbrella is closed for extended periods.
