FAQs

What makes a good quality promotional umbrella?

iBrolly custom manufactures all our umbrellas to order – even the smaller 50’s – there are a few elements that set our umbrellas above the vast majority or promotional umbrella in the market..

All our frames are fiberglass and feature fiberglass ribs – this renders the umbrella frame light and with the 4mm flexible ribs very strong and capable of handling windy conditions. All our umbrella feature Automatic Opening – there will be a button just below the handle that is pressed to release a strong spring – this opens the canopy nice and quickly but as important also give the canopy stability when open.

We use Polyester Pongee 210T canopy fabric – this is low shine, stain resistant and is treated with a waterproofing treatment ensuring the canopy will say clean looking for longer and will not leak.

We offer a choice of handles – our standard handle is Seno Rubber Coated for a non-slip non-shiny finish and features your company logo in the end to finish it off nicely…

Lastly, as our umbrellas are completely custom made – we an include lots of extra features to ensure they are completely on brand;

Pantone match canopy – with the option of utilizing R-PET fabric to offer then as ECO Friendly

Contrasted perimeter tape – its such a nice finish to the canopy and can be in brand colours

Inner canopy in full colour

Printed Tie wraps so your logo can be visible when the umbrella is not in use

Metal popper with icon logo

Sleeve with logo

Subject to order quantity we can pantone match the handles and tips making the umbrella completely bespoke to your brand

We always try to go above and beyond with our design – try to create a custom umbrella that your clients will want to use in an effort to ensure when its raining its your umbrella the client goes for…

Do you offer an ECO Friendly umbrella option

Yes – iBrolly can offer for a small premium, R-PET canopy fabric (Recycled Polyethylene Terephthalate) which is made from recycled water bottles reclaimed from the sea. We can use this fabric on all our umbrellas. We basically take white fabric and dye sublimate it with your brand colours and logo – it looks exactly the same as our standard fabric.

We also then create swing tags with your branding one side and then details of the canopy fabric on the back…

Do you offer full all over printing?

Yes, iBrolly specialise in full color and all over printing – all our umbrella canopies are bespoke and printed to order – we can take a full color picture and spread it overs seams to create a single image over eight panels

There has to be a little tolerance as the material moves during the sewing process but the more colour and more intricate the design the less any slippage will be noticed.

We have lots of artists requiring their artwork spread over the canopy and also corporations asking to have detailed maps or product photos – the options are limitless really
