Description
The Shadowspec SU4 Tilting Offset Umbrella is a premium, high-performance cantilever umbrella designed for New Zealand conditions. With smooth tilt control, 360-degree rotation, and marine-grade construction, it offers flexible, durable shade for homes, cafés, resorts and commercial outdoor areas.
Why Choose the SU4 Tilting Offset Umbrella?
• Marine-Grade Aluminium Frame
Engineered for longevity, the umbrella structure uses corrosion-resistant aluminium and stainless-steel hardware — ideal for coastal, windy or exposed environments.
• Smooth Tilt Function
Tilt the canopy effortlessly as the sun moves. Perfect for patios, decks, pool areas and dining settings where shade needs to be adjusted throughout the day.
• 360° Rotation
The SU4 rotates freely from a single mounting point, allowing you to shade multiple areas — loungers, dining tables, play areas or poolside seating — without relocating the base.
• High-Strength Components
Precision-engineered hubs and fittings ensure stability and reliability under regular daily use.
• Protection Cover Included
Each umbrella includes a custom-fitted protective cover to keep your canopy clean and protected when not in use.
