Central pole parasol
Pyramid
From the shapes of the past we have invented the parasol of the future.
Pyramid the invention
Light and shadow. The lamp parasol.
Pyramid, a new, revolutionary, patented lamp/parasol with back-lit rigid panels. An icon of contemporary design.
The communicative parasol
Shape, light and design transform a message in an emotion
The back-lit rigid panels are totally customizable internally and externally, turning Pyramid into a palette for artists and at the same time, a winning marketing tool.
Opening and closing system
See how Pyramid opens and closes easily
Pyramid opens and closes with maximum ease of handling thanks to a pulley system in stainless steel with EASY BLOCK locking system.
Personality and elegance by day and by night
Pyramid adds a touch of elegance to any location it is placed in, shading its guests from dawn till dusk
Pyramid is protagonist of the space and always grasps the attention thanks to the elegant lines and unexpected harmony of shapes.
When open, it protects from the sun and rain, furnishing and sheltering the space below. The back-lit panels allow use also in the evening, without requiring any additional lighting fixtures. When closed, it changes its function and turns into a decor lamp with a refined design.
Functionality and aesthetics
Built to last
Pyramid is a sophisticated and minimalist design object that expresses an extraordinary alchemy between functionality and product aesthetics.
Technology and high performance of materials
Pyramid is made up of a frame in high tenacity 6005 aluminum alloy, 4 PMMA (polycarbonate) panels with satin finish, LED backlight with remote control and light / controller intensity adjustment, joints in anodized aluminum e stainless steel nuts and bolts.
Modular concept
Our parasol hides and protects its precious fabric inside, preserving it by wear over time. The fabric is totally seamless, fully waterproof and fireproof. Pyramid has been designed as a modular product, (MODULAR CANOPY) to ensure that all its components can be individually replaced, such as a fabric segment or a rigid panel, if required.
Reliability of nautical components
The telescopic opening mechanism for closing above the Pyramid tables is simple, self-balancing and servo-assisted by gas springs and nautical pulley in stainless steel and carbon with SPIN-LOCK locking system.
Attention to details
Electrical wires and cables are concealed inside the structure in order to preserve its aesthetic value and to ensure the long life of the electrical

system.
LED lighting and durability
A sustanable choice
Sustainability is the starting point for every new product. All the way from the design to the materials, packaging, transportation and to the final piece, we are making many sustainable decisions. But the one we believe matters the most; is designing beautiful design parasols that are built to last for many years.
Pyramid is also environmentally friendly, as its dimming LED lights provide a high energy efficient lighting system. Using a low voltage system is highly beneficial in terms of safety and compliance with reference standards. The Pyramid patent underwent structural calculations and aerodynamic resistance simulations to make it suitable for the most diverse environments and applications.
The best ideas come from the comparison
Product Patented
Gaggio from ever believes in collaborations and networking with other production companies on order to diversify the offer and increase the added value of its products.
Pyramid’s success confirms the company’s choice to develop multi-purpose and aesthetically pleasing sun parasols.
Innovation is the foundation of the success of Gaggio parasols and the company, to develop is now investing growingly resources in Research & Development in order to build revolutionary technological solutions.
Pyramid is the result of the winning collaboration between Gaggio and architect Roberto Pamio + Partners.
Pamio Design was born in 2000 as an operating cell affiliated to the Roberto Pamio Architecture Studio.
His creative sensitivity led him to approach all industrial design at a very young age, developing his own personal interpretation that found full expression in lighting and interior furnishings. Pyramid perfectly represents the synthesis between Gaggio’s know-how in the sector and the lines sought by the well-known design studio.
A design vision, inspired by the values of proportion, aesthetics and attention to detail, combined with a profound knowledge of the subject, guides the operating philosophy of the architectural firm that operates intensively at an international level in the field of architectural design and design made in Italy.

Care, Maintenance and Warranty
Umbrella Maintenance and Care
A fundamental product for your business or garden will last longer over time with proper maintenance.
When we refer to a professional umbrella we must consider the fact that we are talking about a product that will be placed in an outdoor space and subject to wear, therefore special precautions are needed in maintenance and cleaning.
In general, Gaggio recommends:
- Do not proceed with the installation and use of the umbrella without first reading the installation and user manual
- If the umbrella does not have an installation and user manual, ask Gaggio srl for a copy
- Always have the installation carried out by qualified personnel
- Make sure that the weight of the base (ballast) is always commensurate with the weather conditions, the conditions of the flooring and the size of the umbrella. In any case, it is recommended to close the umbrella in case of strong wind or in case of adverse weather events.
- Make sure that the umbrella is firmly fixed on the base by means of the provided fixing screws
- Do not stay close to the umbrella during the opening and closing phases
- Do not approach or direct heat sources directly to the cover cloth
- Close the umbrella by releasing the flaps of fabric left inside the structure
- Always tie the umbrella with the appropriate belt once closed, avoiding leaving layers of fabric and flounces fluttering in the wind
- Always wear the protective cover when putting the umbrella back or when transporting it
- Pay attention during the opening and closing phases that the fabric does not get stuck in the frame and not to hit walls and other objects present
Rain and snow: fabrics treated with waterproofing resins (so-called waterproof) do not constitute an absolute guarantee against rain and bad weather. Water can, in fact, seep through the seams holes. Gaggio srl’s use of special yarns, resins for seams and special processes (WATER SAFE system) considerably reduces the phenomenon but unfortunately does not eliminate it. The waterproofing treatment also manifests a natural decay over time.
