Three new compact models have joined our wholesale umbrella catalog: the 6-rib five-fold cartoon sun umbrella with apple handle and gold frame, a retro mini five-fold umbrella with a portable carry handle, and an eight-rib plaid lace folding umbrella with a ring handle. All three are designed for importers, promotional distributors, gift companies, and private-label retail collections that need a compact sun umbrella with UPF 50+ protection.
Why these three models were added
Compact sun umbrellas sell differently depending on the sales channel. Gift and lifestyle buyers usually look for a playful shape or handle, promotional distributors need a low unit weight for freight and distribution, and fashion retailers often want a printed or patterned canopy that looks different from a plain folding umbrella.
These three models answer those requirements with the same core materials: a 210T pongee canopy, a color UV coating rated UPF 50+, fiberglass ribs, and a manual opening structure that is simple to operate and easy to maintain. Buyers comparing formats can review the full folding compact umbrella range and the wider UPF sun umbrella category before finalizing a specification.
1. Cartoon five-fold sun umbrella with apple-shaped handle
The first new model is the 6-rib five-fold cartoon sun umbrella. Six fiberglass ribs and a gold-tone frame support a 210T pongee canopy with a color UV coating, and the compact five-fold structure folds small enough for a handbag, backpack, or travel pouch.
The apple-shaped handle is the main design feature. It gives the umbrella a cartoon character that suits gift shops, youth promotions, loyalty rewards, and lifestyle retail, while the unit weight stays at approximately 250 g. Available color themes include Ice Double Purple Blue, Sea Salt Peach, Lime Soda, Oat Milk Coffee, and Cherry Blossom Grape, and the model packs 60 pieces per master carton.
2. Retro mini five-fold umbrella with portable carry handle
The second addition is a five-fold retro mini sun umbrella with six fiberglass ribs, an alloy shaft, and a portable carry handle. At approximately 240 g it is the lightest of the three models, which makes it practical for travel retail, hotel amenities, and high-volume promotional campaigns where freight weight matters.
The canopy uses the same 210T pongee base with a color UV coating for UPF 50+ protection, finished in soft vintage-inspired tones. Color options include Peach Pink, Cream Yellow, Sprout Green, Clear Sky Blue, and Lavender Purple. The retro mini packs 100 pieces per master carton with a fabric sleeve and OPP bag as standard.
3. Plaid lace folding umbrella with ring handle
The third model is an eight-rib plaid lace folding umbrella with a ring handle. Eight fiberglass ribs and an alloy shaft support a 50 to 55 cm radius canopy, so it offers more coverage than the two mini models while still folding into a compact three-fold shape.
The plaid color coating and decorative lace edge give it a fashion-forward look for gift sets, advertising campaigns, and private-label collections. It is available in Rich Red, Lemon Yellow, Orange, and Spruce Green, weighs approximately 320 g, and packs 50 pieces per master carton. The ring handle can be carried by hand or attached to a bag strap.
Shared specifications and buyer checks
All three models use 210T pongee with a UPF 50+ color coating, fiberglass ribs, and manual opening and closing. A manual structure keeps the mechanism straightforward, which usually means fewer service issues in promotional and gift channels.
Before placing a bulk order, buyers should confirm the exact canopy color, handle finish, printing area, sleeve or gift box, and carton quantity on an approval sample. Because these are coated and printed fabrics, it also helps to agree on a color reference for the destination market. Our guide to choosing umbrella fabric for wholesale and private-label programs explains how canopy material and coating choices affect the finished product. Buyers who need a silver-coated canopy instead of a colour coating can compare the silver-coated green folding sun umbrella.
Custom logo and OEM options
Each model supports logo printing, custom color development, branded sleeves, woven labels, hang tags, and retail packaging. Buyers who need a different handle can compare the wider range of handle options in our umbrella handle selection guide for OEM and private-label programs.
For buyers developing a complete seasonal collection, the three models work well as a coordinated set: one cartoon style for gift retail, one lightweight mini for travel and promotions, and one plaid lace design for fashion and lifestyle channels. They can be ordered together or combined with other styles from our custom umbrella range.
Order and quality planning
Compact umbrellas with printed canopies should be checked against the approved sample before shipment. Fabric color, print registration, lace stitching, handle fitting, and the opening mechanism are the details buyers usually review first. Our umbrella quality control checklist for wholesale orders covers the main inspection points.
For repeat programs, keep the approved sample, color reference, artwork file, and packaging specification together so future production can be compared against the same standard.
