umbrellas and rain ponchos

Umbrellas rank among the top promotional products for visual impact in urban environments, offering one of the largest branding surfaces available. We offer three basic constructions: classic long stick umbrellas (elegant, robust, ideal for business meetings), compact folding umbrellas (lightweight, fitting easily into any handbag or backpack, great for people on the move), and heavy-duty golf umbrellas with an above-standard diameter of over 130 cm. By opening mechanism they are divided into manual, automatic (push-button opening) and fully automatic (open/close system with a single button). The right choice depends on your budget and the level of comfort required by your audience.

We offer three basic umbrella constructions for different target groups. Classic stick umbrellas are robust, elegant and ideal for a business clientele. Compact folding umbrellas are lightweight, fit easily into a bag or backpack, and are perfect for people on the go. Large golf umbrellas offer maximum coverage for two people and outstanding wind resistance. In terms of mechanics, umbrellas are divided into manual, automatic (open with a button press) and fully automatic (open-close system — opening and closing with a single button).

Stick umbrellas offer a sturdy construction, a large canopy and an elegant appearance with a wooden or metal handle, making them an ideal business gift for management. Folding umbrellas focus on maximum portability, fitting easily into a backpack or handbag. Automatic versions — including fully automatic open/close systems — deliver exceptional convenience, allowing you to open and close the umbrella with a single press of the handle button using just one hand. At the premium end sit robust golf umbrellas, featuring a windproof construction and an oversized canopy for two people.

Emergency ponchos made from lightweight polyethylene (PE) are an indispensable marketing lifesaver at large outdoor festivals, concerts, sports events and corporate open-air days. When an unexpected downpour hits, a poncho instantly keeps attendees dry and prevents them from leaving the event early. A particularly popular hit is the poncho folded into a miniature plastic ball that works as a keyring or bag charm. The entire surface of the ball serves as a print area for your logo — keeping it visible year-round — while the poncho hidden inside waits for its moment of need.

The Windproof system (wind resistance) guarantees that during a strong gust of wind the umbrella frame may invert, but will not be damaged or broken. The key lies in the use of modern materials — instead of basic metal wires, the ribs and main shaft of high-quality umbrellas are made from fibreglass and premium aluminium. Fibreglass is extremely flexible, lightweight and strong, allowing the umbrella to flex safely in the wind and snap back instantly to its original shape.

We offer umbrellas in every colour — from conservative black and navy for premium B2B clients to vibrant corporate colours for mass promotional events. From a marketing perspective, we recommend placing the logo on one or two opposite canopy panels so that the branding remains tasteful and the umbrella is genuinely used by recipients. If you need maximum creative freedom, selected models support full-surface printing on the inside or outside of the canopy, turning the umbrella into an unmissable mobile medium on rainy days.

Umbrella printing is carried out using screen printing or heat transfer on individual gores (panels) of the canopy prior to assembly, or directly on finished umbrellas. The logo can be placed on one or more panels, or alternatively on the closing strap or handle. When selecting an umbrella, construction quality is a key factor — premium models feature fibreglass ribs and a so-called windproof system. If a strong gust turns the umbrella inside out, the flexible fibreglass frame will not break; simply close the umbrella and re-open it without any damage.

Umbrellas are a brilliant static and mobile advertising medium — your logo is visible from a great distance above the heads of a crowd in a rainy city. Printing is applied to individual gores (panels) of the polyester canopy using screen printing or sublimation printing. The standard approach is to place the logo on two opposing panels so it remains visible from all sides. A particularly elegant option is printing on the umbrella's fastening strap, or laser engraving the logo onto a wooden or metal handle, which gives the gift an exclusive corporate character.

Disposable and reusable raincoats are an indispensable first aid in case of sudden bad weather at outdoor events. A huge hit are raincoats packed in a compact plastic ball with a carabiner, which doubles as a keychain or bag charm. When deflated and stored, the ball takes up no space and people carry it with them all the time. The top surface of the ball offers a flat area for printing a logo. When rain starts at an event, attendees immediately unpack the raincoats and your logo on the colourful ball stays in the hands of thousands of people as a symbol of timely help.

The canopy material of umbrellas — most commonly a sturdy polyester or polyester pongee — requires a specific printing approach due to the frequent stretching, folding and exposure to heavy rain and UV radiation. For single- and two-colour logos, screen printing with specially formulated inks of high elasticity and adhesion is used; these inks do not crack. For full-colour designs and complex artwork, sublimation printing or DTF technology is applied — both are heat-fixed, penetrate directly into the fibre structure and guarantee 100% water resistance and long-lasting branding.

The windproof system is a key technical feature that protects the umbrella from being destroyed by strong wind gusts. The construction uses flexible fiberglass ribs. If the wind inverts the canopy inside out, the ribs will neither break nor bend. The user can return the umbrella to its original shape with a simple movement or press of a button, without any mechanical damage to the frame. By gifting a windproof umbrella bearing your logo, you guarantee your clients premium quality that will last for years of use.
