Custom Umbrellas – A Huge Range of Styles
Our custom umbrellas are designed and manufactured around your individual branding needs. Choose from golf umbrellas, city walker umbrellas, compact models, folding umbrellas, inverted umbrellas, café umbrellas, market umbrellas and large branded parasols.
Choosing the right umbrella style depends on your target audience, how the umbrellas will be used and the impression you want your brand to create. A compact umbrella may be ideal for everyday use, while an original full size golf or walker umbrella provides greater coverage and a much larger branding area.
Umbrellas offer functional protection against rain and UV sunlight while providing lasting promotional value. A well-designed umbrella featuring your company logo can accompany customers for years, generating thousands of brand impressions over its lifetime.
Our range includes:
- Custom golf umbrellas
- City Walker umbrellas
- Promotional folding umbrellas
- Compact telescopic umbrellas
- Inverted umbrellas
- Corporate umbrellas
- Café and patio umbrellas
- Market umbrellas and branded parasols
Many styles feature automatic opening, flexible fibreglass ribs and a durable 190T pongee canopy. Fibreglass frames improve durability and reduce the risk of wind damage because the ribs can flex under pressure rather than bending permanently.
Durable, wind resistant umbrellas reflect positively on the quality of the organisation giving them. This makes them popular for corporate events, sporting events, trade shows, golf days, promotional giveaways and outdoor promotions.
Branded Umbrellas That Keep Your Logo Visible
Branded umbrellas are among the most practical and popular outdoor advertising products available. They provide useful weather protection while promoting your business whenever they are carried in public.
Unlike many short-lived promotional items, quality branded umbrellas can remain in circulation for years. Each time the umbrella is used, your logo becomes visible to pedestrians, commuters, visitors and potential customers. In effect, branded umbrellas act as mobile advertisements in public spaces.
Custom umbrellas can feature logos, colours, patterns, photographic images and complete all-over designs. Branding can be applied to one or multiple panels, allowing you to choose between subtle logo placement and maximum visibility.
High-contrast colours are generally recommended when maximum visibility is important. However, understated corporate colours can be equally effective when the aim is to create an elegant premium umbrella.
Custom Branded Umbrellas for Corporate Promotions
Our custom branded umbrellas are suitable for corporate promotions, conferences, hospitality, staff recognition and customer engagement. They can be presented as corporate gifts, employee gifts or client gifts and are likely to be retained because they provide genuine practical value.
A high-quality umbrella is perceived as a premium promotional gift rather than a disposable giveaway. Its quality construction, useful function and long lifespan can enhance the way recipients perceive your company.
We work with businesses, agencies, sporting clubs, event organisers, visitor attractions, hospitality venues and Australian owned brands across a wide variety of sectors. Whether you need 25 umbrellas for a selected low-MOQ project or a much larger production run, we can recommend the right umbrella for your budget and branding objectives.
Sustainable Custom Umbrellas
Sustainable umbrella options can enhance brand perception and help connect a promotional campaign with an organisation’s environmental values.
Our custom umbrella canopies can be manufactured using rPET fabric. Recycled polyethylene terephthalate is made by converting recycled plastic into durable material suitable for umbrella canopies. Once colourfast and waterproofed, it provides excellent protection and performance comparable with conventional polyester.
Most umbrellas use durable polyester canopies for weather protection, but rPET offers an alternative for companies looking to incorporate recycled materials into their promotional merchandise.
Our promotional folding umbrellas can also be manufactured with rPET canopy fabric and matching sleeves, together with handles and flat tips containing recycled materials. These eco umbrellas combine practical performance with more sustainable branding.
Both conventional polyester and rPET canopy material can be decorated using screen printing, digital printing or full colour dye sublimation, depending on the design and quantity.

Golf Umbrellas – Maximum Branding Area
Golf umbrellas offer the largest branding area and the greatest printable surface area within our handheld umbrella range. Their broad canopy panels provide maximum visibility for a company logo, campaign message or all-over design.
Our stylish iBrolly Auto Golf Umbrella features automatic opening and a lightweight but strong fibreglass shaft and rib system. It is normally manufactured with a double-layer or vented pongee canopy to improve performance in windy conditions.
These promotional golf umbrellas are excellent for:
- Corporate golf days
- Golf course promotions
- Sporting clubs
- Corporate events
- Hotels and resorts
- Outdoor events
- Sporting venues
- Client and employee gifts
A choice of handle styles is available. Our black Seno rubber easy grip handle is particularly popular, while the dark wood Milano handle provides a more traditional premium finish and can include a logo in the end.
Full colour digital printing allows the canopy to incorporate almost any colour or design. As our branded promotional umbrellas are custom made to order, we can also create all-over artwork and top-view designs in which a single image extends across multiple panels.
A silver or UV-blocking agent can be incorporated into all our umbrellas to provide additional protection from sunlight. This makes a promotional golf umbrella suitable for varied Australian weather conditions, offering excellent protection from both rain and UV sunlight.
City Walker Umbrellas
Our City Walker range is one size below our golf umbrellas and is ideal for city streets, corporate events and everyday use. It combines a generous canopy with a more manageable size, making it one of our most versatile promotional umbrellas.
Our City Walker models feature:
- Auto open operation
- Flexible fibreglass ribs
- Wood, fibreglass or aluminium shafts
- Round or square canopies
- Single, double-layer or vented canopies
- Screen-printed or digitally printed branding
- Custom handles, tips, buttons and perimeter tape
For a more traditional style, we recommend our automatic wood walker with a dark-stained shaft and handle. It has a classic appearance without compromising practical performance.
Inverted Umbrellas
Inverted umbrellas close in the opposite direction to a conventional umbrella. The wet outer surface folds inwards, helping to contain rainwater rather than allowing it to drip onto the user, floor or car interior.
This practical style is particularly suitable for commuters moving between the street, car, office and public transport. Its closing mechanism also makes it easier to operate in confined spaces.
Our inverted umbrellas can be custom branded using corporate colours, logos or full colour artwork, creating a distinctive promotional product with an innovative design.
Compact Umbrella Styles for Everyday Use
A compact umbrella is ideal when portability and convenient storage are important. Compact umbrellas feature folding mechanisms that make them easy to carry in handbags, backpacks, briefcases and vehicle compartments.
Our custom branded telescopic umbrellas feature a reinforced frame and a three-stage automatic opening mechanism. Many models use a six rib or eight-rib system with fibreglass components for additional flexibility and stability.
The accessibility and practical nature of compact folding umbrellas make them especially suitable for promotional giveaways, conferences, exhibitions and trade shows. They are also useful at company events where an original full size umbrella may be inconvenient.
Our promotional folding umbrellas can be supplied with:
- A printed bag or sleeve
- Contrasting perimeter tape
- A logo in the handle base
- Full colour branding
- An easy grip handle
- Custom tie wraps and studs
- Single or double-sided canopy artwork
Our Monetto canopy fabric enables a double-sided print effect using a single layer of fabric, creating a striking finish without the weight extra thickness of a traditional double-layer canopy.
iBrolly Premium Umbrella Construction
Higher-end umbrellas use stronger components and offer enhanced resistance to demanding weather conditions. Features such as fibreglass ribs, reinforced joints, vented canopies and a strong opening mechanism can all contribute to improved durability.
While no umbrella can be described as completely indestructible, we can help you select the strongest umbrella construction appropriate for your intended use and budget. A heavier golf umbrella may provide the best coverage, while a compact model offers greater portability.
Some buyers compare our products with BLUNT umbrellas and other recognised premium designs. We do not supply the BLUNT brand; instead, we manufacture fully customised iBrolly umbrellas according to each customer’s design, performance and branding requirements.
Wind Resistant Umbrellas
Wind resistant performance depends on the complete construction of the umbrella rather than one individual component. Flexible fibreglass ribs help the frame respond to sudden gusts, while a double-layer or vented canopy allows air to escape more effectively.
These features reduce pressure on the frame and lower the risk of damage in windy conditions.
We will recommend a suitable frame, canopy and shaft after considering where and how the umbrellas will be used.
Branded Parasols for Outdoor Dining Areas
Our custom branded parasols, café umbrellas and market umbrellas are made to order and can be produced in a wide variety of sizes, shapes and colours.
Café umbrellas are designed for outdoor dining areas, while heavier-duty patio umbrellas require stronger frames and suitable bases to provide stability outdoors. Depending on the location and installation method, parasols can remain portable or be installed permanently using appropriate professional fittings.
They are ideal for:
- Bars and restaurants
- Hotels and resorts
- Outdoor dining areas
- Hospitality venues
- Market stalls
- Festivals
- Outdoor venues
- Exhibition booths
- Corporate and sporting events
Patio umbrellas provide continuous branding opportunities outdoors. Large market umbrellas also enhance brand visibility at outdoor events, hospitality areas and promotional booths.
Their oversized canopy gives a logo excellent exposure and helps ensure your brand stands out in busy environments. Our minimum order quantity for selected custom parasol projects can start from just 12 units.
Choosing the Perfect Umbrella
The perfect umbrella depends on your intended audience, environment, budget and campaign objectives.
A compact umbrella is convenient for travel and everyday use. A City Walker balances portability with increased canopy coverage. Golf umbrellas provide the largest branding area, while café, patio and market umbrellas create continuous visibility at fixed outdoor locations.
Before you order umbrellas, consider:
- Who will receive or use them
- Where they will be used
- The level of weather protection required
- Your preferred colours and visual style
- How prominently the logo should appear
- Your budget and required quantity
- Your delivery deadline
Setting a realistic budget and quantity is important for any custom umbrella order. Once we understand the brief, we can suggest a suitable model and explain the available branding options.
Full Colour Digital Printing and Screen Printing
We offer several professional printing methods, including screen printing, digital printing and dye sublimation.
Screen printing is particularly effective for clear, solid-colour logos and larger production quantities. Full colour digital methods are ideal for detailed artwork, gradients, photographic imagery and designs containing many colours.
Dye sublimation allows intricate artwork to become part of the canopy fabric and works particularly well for all-over designs. Depending on your artwork, branding can be applied to one panel, alternating canopy panels, multiple panels or across the entire canopy.
Our design team will recommend the most suitable process after reviewing your artwork, quantity and required finish.
Custom Branded Umbrella Options
Most components of our custom umbrellas can be personalised. Depending on the model and order quantity, available branding options include:
Logo in the Handle Base
Selected handles can incorporate a full colour logo in the end. We can also laser engrave a logo onto a metal handle ring for a more understated finish.
Printed Sleeves
Our umbrellas can be supplied with canopy-matching sleeves. Custom branded compact umbrellas generally include a printed sleeve or bag as standard. Another great option is our branded drawstring bags, ideal for high end retail.
Custom Printed Tie Wraps
The tie wrap keeps the canopy closed when the umbrella is not in use. It can be screen printed or digitally branded in a matching or contrasting colour, keeping the company logo visible even when the umbrella is closed.
Branded Popper Studs
The metal stud fastening the tie wrap can be colour matched or subtly customised with an embossed icon, subject to model and quantity. It is a small detail that can add to the overall premium finish.
Custom Perimeter Tape
Perimeter tape is the binding stitched around the outside of the canopy. It reinforces the edge and provides a clear indication that the product has been custom made.
It can be manufactured in almost any colour and, on suitable projects, can incorporate printed branding.
Woven or Screen-Printed Labels
Custom labels can be incorporated into the canopy, sleeve or tie wrap. Compact umbrellas can also be supplied with a zipped bag featuring a woven label.
Colour-Matched Frame Elements
Subject to minimum quantities, we can colour match selected elements including the handle, automatic opening button, tip and rib end caps.
Minimum quantities for colour-matched components generally range from 500 to 1,000 units, depending on the component and model. Colour matching the shaft usually requires a higher quantity.
Our Custom Umbrella Design Process
Our experienced design team will create a bespoke umbrella layout around your brand. This is a complimentary service and the first step towards ensuring that the finished design is consistent with your brand guidelines.
1. Send Us Your Artwork
Send your logo or artwork in a high-quality vector format such as AI, EPS or vector PDF, together with any relevant Pantone colour references. If the files are too large to email, we can accept them through a file-transfer link.
2. Review Your Initial Design
We will prepare an initial layout showing the proposed canopy design and customised components. You can request revisions until you are happy with the appearance.
3. Approve a Physical Sample
Requesting a physical sample allows you to assess the colour, construction and print quality before bulk production begins.
For confirmed orders of 100 units or more, we generally prefer to produce a completed pre-production sample for final approval. For selected smaller orders or urgent deadlines, we may provide detailed photographs or videos instead.

Tell us what you need by completing our enquiry form. We aim to respond within four business hours during our normal business hours.
Branded Umbrella Production Lead Time
Custom promotional umbrellas can be delivered in as little as approximately three weeks, depending on the design, quantity, production schedule and destination.
For express delivery, we generally use an international courier such as DHL or FedEx. Where time permits, we prefer to send a physical sample for approval. For urgent orders, photographs and video may be used to approve the finished sample before production begins.
Customers who can accept a longer lead time may benefit from lower manufacturing or freight costs. We will explain the available options when preparing your quotation.
Low Minimum Order Quantities
Low minimum order quantities for selected custom umbrellas can start at 25 units. However, the normal minimum for many completely bespoke models is between 50 and 100 units, depending on the umbrella style, printing method and required customisation.
More specialised details—such as fully colour-matched frame components—usually require higher quantities.
Contact us with your preferred style, quantity and delivery date, and we will confirm the most suitable production option.
