Promotional Umbrellas

Custom Branding and Print Methods for Umbrellas

An umbrella gives your brand plenty of room to work with. The right decoration method depends on the style, canopy material, artwork and how bold you want to go.

• Screen printing: A go-to choice for clear, bold logos across umbrella panels. It works particularly well for simple artwork and larger quantities, producing strong brand visibility without overcomplicating the design.
• Digital and full-colour printing: Got gradients, multiple colours, or artwork with more going on? Full colour printing allows detailed graphics and more creative designs to make use of that generous canopy space.
• Heat transfer: Well-suited to certain umbrella fabrics when detailed artwork or more intricate branding is required.
• Additional branding: Selected custom umbrellas can offer branding across multiple panels, sleeves or handles, giving you more ways to make the product feel considered from every angle.

Which Umbrella Suits Your Brand?

There is no universally perfect umbrella. There is, however, one that makes much more sense for your brief.

Golf Umbrellas

Big canopy. Big presence. Promotional golf umbrellas provide generous coverage and plenty of room for branding, making them ideal for corporate golf days, sporting events, outdoor activations and higher-value gifting.

Their larger size also gives your logo serious visibility when the umbrella is in use. If the goal is to make an impression while keeping someone properly dry, this is a good place to start.

Compact Umbrellas

For something designed to go everywhere, choose a compact umbrella.

These fold down neatly enough for handbags, work bags, backpacks and cars, making them well-suited to commuters, employees, clients and event attendees. They are practical without taking up too much room, which gives them a very good chance of actually being kept.

Recycled Material Options

If material choice is important to the brief, selected umbrellas use recycled materials such as RPET. Explore more eco-friendly promotional products if you are building a wider merchandise range around considered material choices.

Still deciding? Tell us who the umbrellas are for, where they will be used and what you want to spend. We’ll narrow it down from there.

When to Order Branded Umbrellas

The best corporate umbrellas solve a problem at exactly the right moment. Here are a few occasions where they really earn their place.

Golf Days and Corporate Tournaments

There is a reason golf umbrellas are a classic. They suit the setting, provide plenty of branding space and remain useful long after the final putt. Use them as player gifts, prizes, sponsor merchandise or part of a larger event pack.

Winter Client Gifting

Another bottle of wine? They have probably seen it before.

A quality branded umbrella makes a practical winter gift that clients can keep at work, in the car or by the front door. Choose a polished compact or larger premium style to make the gift feel more substantial.

Real Estate and Open Homes

The weather does not check the inspection schedule. Custom umbrellas can help agents keep clients dry during open homes, property tours and settlement meetings while creating a useful piece of branded merchandise they can take with them.

Conferences and Outdoor Activations

Outdoor event plus questionable forecast? Plan ahead.

Umbrellas can be distributed to attendees, staff or VIPs and used alongside other branded outdoor products to build a more complete activation.

Planning for warmer weather, too? Add custom beach towels to the merchandise mix and prepare for whatever Australia decides to do next.

Staff Welcome Packs

A compact umbrella makes a useful addition to employee onboarding packs, particularly for teams commuting into the office or travelling between locations. Pair it with other practical branded merchandise to create a welcome pack people will continue using after week one.
