The iBrolly Custom Umbrella Free Design Service
We have a great team of experienced designers on hand, ready to help bring your perfect branded umbrella to life. It’s the first step to get your umbrella order moving, and we encourage as many revisions as needed to generate the very best result.
All we need is your brand guidelines and company logo – we can do the rest… Or you can design your own umbrella – we can send you the relevant template and adjust it, if necessary, to ensure it works well for production.
The iBrolly Printed Umbrella Performance Guarantee
We are 100% confident in our branded umbrellas to the extent that, if any iBrolly custom umbrella breaks during the normal course of use, it will be refunded or replaced. Complete peace of mind for all our clients and customers, whatever the weather, making them the absolute perfect choice.
Automatic Opening
All our branded umbrellas feature a durable, fast-acting push-button auto-opening mechanism. The oversized, high-strength spring allows the canopy to open rapidly while maintaining excellent stability in strong winds and adverse weather. Aids great performance and ensures a long life.
Recycled Materials & Eco-Friendly Umbrellas
All our corporate umbrellas can be fully custom-made using sustainable materials. The canopy can be produced from our rPET fabric, made from recycled plastic water bottles. It looks and feels just as premium as traditional polyester but is manufactured entirely from recycled materials. We can offer a range of bamboo handles, laminated wood handles made from offcuts of wood, and aluminium, steel, and bamboo shafts.
Custom Umbrella Design Options
We build our personalised umbrellas around your brand, and as the frames are all custom made, we can offer lots of additional frame elements that can be branded, creating a completely bespoke umbrella:
Full Colour Printing – Company Logo
Our fabric is designed for full-colour printing, with precise panel alignment to ensure artwork is positioned correctly. Through dye-sublimation or heat-transfer printing, we can produce striking top-view, all-over designs, allowing a single image to flow seamlessly across the entire entire canopy.
Double Layer Canopy
All our personalised umbrellas are designed to take a double-layer canopy – we can offer full-colour dye sublimation as well as fifty stock canopy colours, ideal for screen printing – all eight panels, both inside and out, can be coloured. Our fabric is upgraded 200T polyester pongee, which can be rPET, made from recycled plastic water bottles.
Dual Vented Windproof Canopy
Our vented canopies are not just slits cut into the fabric. They are engineered using two completely separate canopies. In strong, windy conditions, the upper element actually lifts to release excess air, significantly reducing wind pressure on the frame and improving user comfort.
Designs can be perfectly matched across both the top and bottom canopies for seamless finishing. Please note that printing on the inside of a vented canopy is not available.
Laser-Engraved Handle Ring
For our printed umbrellas with crook- or curved-shaped handles, we can laser engrave a metal handle ring.
Laser engraving or printing a logo on the handle serves as a long-term branding touchpoint. We generally offer this for free.
Logo in Handle Base
Most of our custom-made handles are designed to take a colour logo in the end. We offer lots of different handle styles and can custom make them to bespoke shapes relevant to your brand.
Our wooden handle with dark grain looks absolutely stunning with a logo decal in the end, beautifully complemented with a wooden shaft on our automatic wood walkers.
Printed Cover Sleeve
A sleeve is a sheath of fabric, generally the same as the canopy material and colours. It’s there to protect the umbrella and help keep it clean when not in use.
Printed Umbrella Tie Wraps
The tie wrap is the strap that secures the canopy closed when not in use. It offers an ideal branding opportunity, as it will enable the logo to be visible when the umbrella is not in use. It can be printed, embroidered, or feature a woven label, or even a rubber badge.
Matching Carry Bag
We can offer a range of custom-made umbrella bags in different styles, including with carry straps and drawstring bags, for that premium feel to help your brand stand out.
Embossed Metal Snaps
Each tie wrap is finished with a high-quality metal popper, designed to securely fasten the umbrella when closed. Poppers can be colour matched, embossed with an icon, or produced in bespoke shapes to align perfectly with your brand.
Perimeter Tape
iBrolly perimeter tape is a signature feature we introduced over twenty years ago. Applied to the outer edge of the canopy, this binding helps prevent fraying while providing an additional opportunity for subtle brand colour detailing. Perimeter tape can be matched to any Pantone or brand colour for a refined, bespoke finish.
Vertical Rib Tape
Vertical rib tape is a distinctive design option that applies coloured tape to the exterior rib lines of the canopy. Available in any brand colour, it creates strong vertical detailing and a highly visible, eye-catching finish.
Personalised Umbrellas
We can individually personalise each umbrella with the recipient’s name by laser engraving a metal handle ring. These rings are positioned at the base of a crook- or curved-shaped handle. The price is low, and there is no set-up, which makes them very workable. It’s the ideal corporate gift.
iBrolly Branded Golf Umbrellas
Our world-renowned automatic golf umbrella has to be seen to be appreciated. Very strong, with an upgraded fibreglass rib system and lightweight fibreglass shaft, auto-opening, and lots of extra detailing.
Benefits of Branded Umbrellas
The durability of branded umbrellas allows them to function as mobile advertisements for an extended period.
Investing in quality materials, like fibreglass ribs and high-density pongee fabric, improves brand reliability and perception.
Low Minimum Order & Quick Turnaround
iBrolly offers a very low minimum order quantity of just twenty-five units. There are some good price discounts for bulk orders, though, and with a low lead time of circa three weeks, iBrolly is the perfect choice.
