A 23-inch 10-rib automatic folding sun umbrella with a 2+1 gold frame, fiberglass ribs, steel shaft, 210T pongee fabric, black UV coating, UPF 50+ protection, and a wide strap.
This 23-inch automatic folding sun umbrella is designed for business gifting, promotional campaigns, and retail private-label collections. The 10-rib fiberglass frame and steel shaft support the 210T pongee canopy, which uses a black UV coating for UPF 50+ protection and a refined, matte finish.
Available colors include Velvet Pink, Evening Wave Blue, Paulownia Beige, Starry Black, Moon Purple, and Morning Mist Green. Standard packing includes a fabric sleeve and OPP bag, with 60 pieces per master carton and an approximate unit weight of 450 g.
This model carries ten fiberglass ribs on a steel shaft and adds two finishing elements that distinguish it from the plain ten-rib business umbrellas. The 2+1 gold frame is a decorative frame treatment applied over the load-bearing structure, giving the open umbrella a gold-accented look that suits gift and lifestyle retail. The wide strap is the second differentiator: a broad closure strap holds the folded canopy more securely than a narrow one and gives the folded product a cleaner, flatter profile in a bag. Neither element changes how the umbrella performs in wind; they change how it presents.
The open diameter is 96–106 cm (48–53 cm radius), which is slightly larger than the 23-inch ten-rib business models. Combined with the automatic closing mechanism, that makes this a folding umbrella for buyers who want more coverage than a standard compact without moving to a straight format. The 210T pongee canopy carries a black UV coating rated UPF 50+, so the six colourways keep sun protection while showing their shell colour on the outer face.
Six colourways are specified: Velvet Pink, Evening Wave Blue, Paulownia Beige, Starry Black, Moon Purple, and Morning Mist Green. Logo printing, Pantone colour matching, OEM/ODM development, and custom packaging are supported. Comparable folding formats are listed under compact umbrella.
The structural ribs are fiberglass and the shaft is steel; 2+1 gold refers to the decorative frame finishing.
It is slightly larger, at 96–106 cm open diameter versus 105 cm on the standard ten-rib platform.
The 8-rib cartoon compact shares the model code but is a smaller five-fold format.
23 Inch 10-Rib Automatic Folding Sun Umbrella with 2+1 Gold Frame and Wide Strap targets travel retail, commuter collections, employee gifts, hotel amenities, and promotional programs where portability is the main purchase driver.
A compact umbrella can fail commercially even when it looks correct. The folding sequence, closing action, canopy recovery, runner travel, handle grip, and sleeve dimensions determine whether customers keep using it after the first rain.
What folded length is practical for a compact umbrella?
Many travel and pocket programs use a folded length around 18 to 23 cm, but the best target depends on the bag, pocket, or packaging the product must fit. Measure the complete folded umbrella and sleeve together before approving the tooling and packaging.
How many folds should a compact umbrella have?
Three-fold umbrellas balance compact size and canopy coverage. Five-fold umbrellas pack smaller but use more joints and a more complex folding sequence. Choose based on the target bag, retail price, and the amount of mechanism complexity the market will accept.
