As an umbrella manufacturer, I will teach you how to choose an umbrella from four aspects. Of course, customization can also be customized according to the customer's requirements.
1.appearance&Sun Protection:UV protection umbrellas now come in styles like cartoon patterns and pastels(beyond traditional prints,checks,and solids) to meet aesthetic needs.Notably,umbrella color depth has no direct link to UV protection-third-party tests show UV-B transmittance differences between light and dark umbrellas are negligible,so color depth isn't a core purchase criterion.
2.Fabric&Craftsmanship:UV-protective umbrella fabrics are mainly glossy or matte.Glossy fabrics dominate the market for mature production and vivid visuals;matte fabrics use complex special weaving,costing more,with a texture suited for low-key scenarios.
3.Umbrella Frame&Portability:Frames have upgraded from straight-pole and three-fold to four-fold(smaller folded size,better portability).Since frame material(aluminum alloy,glass fiber,ect.)and craftsmanship affet durability and 30%-50% of total cost,check joint firmness and smooth opening/closing when buying to avoid shortened lifespan.
4.Silver Coating Selection: Silver coating boosts UV blocking but peels easily (especially at frame-umbrella connections)under long-term sun/wind.External coating peeling harms appearance;prioritize internal silver coating-it reduces environmental contact, lowers environmental contact,lowers peeling risk,and maintains appearance durability.
