6-Rib Ultra-Light Black Coated Folding Umbrella

Specifying 6-Rib Ultra-Light Black Coated Folding Umbrella for a repeatable umbrella program

6-Rib Ultra-Light Black Coated Folding Umbrella 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.

• Travel retail, airport, convenience, and commuter programs.

• Compact private-label collections with multiple colourways and prints.

• Frame: 6 fiberglass ribs; aluminum alloy shaft and ribs Fold count, rib material, and joint quality determine folded size, durability, and the amount of force needed to close the umbrella.
• Handle: Rubber Compact handles should remain comfortable without making the folded product too bulky for a pocket, pouch, or gift box.
• Opening System: Manual or automatic variants; automatic version closes automatically
• Available Colors: Paulownia Beige, Peach Pink, Cool Fragrance Green, Sky Blue, Mist Grey, Starry Black
• Customization: Logo printing, OEM/ODM, color matching, custom packaging

What to confirm before bulk production

• Measure folded length and packed diameter against the actual bag or retail fixture.
• Test the folding sequence, closing pressure, canopy recovery, and sleeve fit after repeated use.
• Confirm frame stability, tip protection, handle durability, and carton quantities for efficient distribution.

Buyer questions about this product type

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.
