Branding Options
Screen Print
Screen printing forces ink through a fine mesh screen onto the canopy with a squeegee. This umbrella's screen print option is limited to one colour, and may need a white base on the Navy or Black canopy to keep the colour true. It suits bold, simple logos best. One setup charge applies. Variable data is not available. Branding area is up to 200mm x 100mm. The panel with the tie cannot be branded.
Colourflex Transfer
Colourflex is a CMYK plus white digital transfer process suited to full colour, detailed designs and approximate spot colours. It uses water based inks and gives a durable, soft touch matt finish that is machine washable. Metallic and neon colours cannot be reproduced, and minimum detail is 1mm. One setup charge applies regardless of print colours. Branding area is up to 200mm x 100mm. The panel with the tie cannot be branded.
DigiFlex Transfer
DigiFlex Transfer is a direct to film digital process suited to personalisation and variable data such as names. It uses water based inks and gives a durable, machine washable finish. Metallic and neon colours cannot be reproduced, and minimum detail is 1mm. One setup charge applies regardless of print colours. Branding area is up to 200mm x 100mm. The panel with the tie cannot be branded.
Materials
The canopy is made from polyester, giving it a durable, weather-ready finish, and comes with a matching pongee carry sleeve for easy storage between uses. The frame is built from 54cm steel ribs and a steel shaft, with rib tips finished in zinc alloy. The handle is a straight plastic grip, keeping the overall umbrella light and easy to carry day to day. Both opening and closing are automatic, and the tri-fold design collapses down for compact storage.
