Read MoreShaoxing Ewing Tourism Product Co., Ltd. is a China-based Folding umbrella manufacturer producing compact sun and rain protection for retail chains, travel brands, promotional distributors, and e-commerce programs. Established in 2010, we manufacture folding umbrellas in an 8000 m² factory with around 110 employees, two production lines, and a monthly capacity of up to 150,000 sets.
Our range covers manual, automatic-open, automatic open-and-close, mini, compact travel, windproof, and lightweight pocket models. Canopy sizes, fabrics, frame materials, handle styles, opening mechanisms, printing, and packaging are specified around the target market and order profile before production.
The folding umbrella category is broad, but the commercial logic is constant: the unit must pack small, open quickly, and survive repeated cycles. We organize the range by opening mechanism and portability so retail and project customers can match a model to a route-to-market.
| Configuration | Typical application fit | Design emphasis |
|---|---|---|
| Manual folding umbrella | Retail stores, supermarkets, grocery and general merchandise | Simple construction, lightweight feel, reliable runner lock, lower unit cost |
| Automatic open umbrella | Daily commuters, transit hubs, travel retail | One-hand opening with spring-loaded mechanism, stable canopy tension |
| Automatic open and close umbrella | E-commerce, corporate gifts, executive accessories | Controlled retraction, convenient one-hand closing, compact storage |
| Mini and pocket umbrella | Handbags, luggage accessories, travel packs | Ultra-short closed length, ultra-light frame, small packing footprint |
| Windproof umbrella | Outdoor events, coastal markets, storm-prone regions | Reinforced ribs, fiberglass or carbon fiber frame, curved or vented canopy |
| Compact travel umbrella | Business travel, airline and luggage brands | Balanced closed length-to-canopy ratio, durable sleeve or case |
These families are not fixed. We adjust canopy diameter, number of ribs, shaft construction, and handle type within each configuration. This folding umbrella range sits inside the larger Sun & Rain Umbrella program, alongside golf and other portable formats.
Folding umbrellas get more handling stress than fixed parasols because every open and close cycle flexes the ribs and folds the canopy. Fabric selection is therefore central. We work with waterproof polyester and nylon canopies with UV-resistant and water-repellent finishes. For programs that need stronger weather resistance, frame choices can shift from aluminum to steel, fiberglass, or carbon fiber depending on wind load and weight targets.
Aluminum keeps weight low, steel adds rigidity, fiberglass gives flexible wind deflection, and carbon fiber reduces weight for premium travel models. Functional details such as a reinforced tip, smooth runner, secure stretcher rivets, and a comfortable handle control the number of open-close cycles the unit can survive. We confirm these details early because they affect assembly time, tooling, and final cost.
Each proposal starts from a target specification. For a folding umbrella, we usually confirm the following variables before pricing:
Our configuration approach is modular. A retail order can be a simple manual model with a printed logo, while a travel brand may need a carbon-fiber automatic open-and-close model in custom packaging.
We supply wholesalers, distributors, retailers, promotional product companies, travel brands, and private label customers around the world. Customization includes logo printing, canopy design, frame materials, handle styles, packaging design, and complete private label solutions. Our 7-person R&D team works from reference products, drawings, or a simple product brief.
For ODM work, we start from the operating environment, target market, and quantity, then translate those inputs into a specification our production team can execute and inspect. For custom printing, the canopy area, seam positions, and fold pattern affect print placement. We advise on print size and position so the logo remains readable when the umbrella is open and folded. Samples can be arranged after product details are confirmed.
From our 8000 m² facility, we plan production around the confirmed specification. Monthly capacity of up to 150,000 sets supports promotional launches, retail stock programs, and project-based deliveries for customers across Europe, the USA, South America, the Middle East, and other markets.
Quality control is embedded through material inspection, production inspection, product assembly, finished product inspection, and pre-shipment inspection. This keeps large folding umbrella programs consistent in canopy alignment, frame operation, and packaging.
Whether the requirement is a single retail program or a wider outdoor product assortment, the complete umbrella portfolio can be sourced from the same factory.
