Ordering a custom umbrella: The process you need to know
Many customers are unfamiliar with umbrellas and have difficulty determining their specific needs when ordering for the first time. We frequently receive emails from customers simply stating, "I want to buy an umbrella, please quote." This is similar to walking into a restaurant and saying, "I want to eat something." We understand that people who lack familiarity with umbrellas may struggle to provide clear instructions. Therefore, before ordering custom umbrellas, it is important to consider the following factors:
Frame specifications: Umbrellas can be categorized into walking umbrellas and folding umbrellas, and they can have automatic or manual functions. Additionally, it is helpful to identify the target customer, such as those requiring a larger men's umbrella, a portable mini umbrella, or a children's umbrella.
Canopy design: You have the option to choose between plain or printed fabric for the canopy. For advertising umbrellas, it is common to screen print the company logo on plain fabric. If you prefer a printed umbrella, providing artwork will allow us to advise on the best fabric-making process. It is also important to decide whether you require additional features like UV-cut, sunshield, super waterproofing, etc. These canopy specifications will influence the price of the umbrella.
Quantity and target price: Please inform us of the expected order quantity and your target price. Keep in mind that smaller order quantities usually result in higher unit prices. Providing this information in advance will help us identify materials that meet your needs.
To better understand your preferences, you can browse through your own collection or search the internet for umbrellas that closely match your requirements. Once you have found a suitable umbrella, please send us a photo and its size. This will enable us to have a clearer understanding of the type of umbrella you desire.
We hope that the above information proves helpful to you. If you require custom umbrellas, please don't hesitate to contact our team.
