Lipari – Sun Protection in Series Production
The Lipari collection by Unopiù shows how versatile sun protection can be. What looks like a classic parasol series on the outside is, in reality, a sophisticated system of different shapes, sizes, and accessory elements – tailored to the varied requirements of modern terraces, catering areas, and private gardens.
Lipari covers everything: from small, round umbrellas for bistro tables to large, rectangular models that shade entire lounge areas.
Design and Formal Language
Lipari umbrellas follow a timeless, technically precise formal language. No excessive ornamentation, no fashionable details – the umbrellas are designed to integrate into various outdoor styles without dominating the overall appearance. The umbrella provides shade – it should enable the space beneath it, not distract from it.
The Lipari Range
The collection offers optimal coverage for every terrace size. The Lipari Parasol Ø 280 cm is ideal for smaller dining areas. Rectangular options include the Lipari 300×200 cm and the Lipari 250×350 cm. For maximum coverage, the Lipari 300×400 cm is available.
Additionally, Unopiù offers the Lipari Replacement Canopy 300×300 cm for a complete refresh without replacing the umbrella, as well as the Serena Stone Umbrella Base 40×40 cm for stable placement without ground fixation. All products on the Lipari Collection page.
Use in the Garden and on the Terrace
Lipari is suitable for dining areas and lounge zones in both private and catering settings. The selection of sizes allows for choosing precisely the right coverage for the specific situation – without under- or over-dimensioning. The Serena stone base offers an elegant, freestanding base solution for terraces without anchoring possibilities.

Care Instructions – Lipari Parasol
- Clean the canopy: Wipe the umbrella canopy with water and mild soapy water or lightly rinse smaller umbrellas. Do not use aggressive cleaners.
- Allow to dry: Let the umbrella dry completely open before retracting or storing it – this prevents mold growth.
- Wipe the pole: Clean the aluminum pole with a damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners.
- Retract the umbrella: Retract or store the umbrella in strong winds and during the off-season. Wind loads can damage the umbrella.
- Replace the canopy: The Lipari Replacement Canopy 300×300 cm can be installed without special tools and significantly extends its lifespan.
- Winter storage: Fold the umbrella, store it dry, or cover it with a protective cover. The Serena stone umbrella base can remain outdoors all year round.
Frequently Asked Questions about the Lipari Collection
Which size of Lipari umbrella is recommended for a dining table for 6 people?
For a dining table with 6 people, at least 250×350 cm or 300×400 cm is recommended. The umbrella should shade the table beyond the seated individuals – an overhang of approx. 50–60 cm per side is advisable.
Can I install a Lipari replacement canopy?
Yes. The Lipari Replacement Canopy 300×300 cm is designed for the existing Lipari frame and can be replaced without special tools.
How do I anchor the Lipari umbrella without drilling?
The Serena stone umbrella base (40×40 cm) provides sufficient weight for a stable stand without anchoring. For larger umbrella variants, we recommend additional weights or ground anchoring if necessary.
How do I care for the umbrella canopy?
The canopy can be cleaned with water and a mild detergent. Regular drying prevents mold growth. During the off-season, we recommend storing it or using a protective cover.
