We offer a bespoke commission manufacturing service and can tailor the design and style of the umbrella to suit your unique specifications. This means we offer a fully factored service where we supply everything from fabric to buttons to content lable. Or alternatively you can supply your own fabric which we then cut, make and trim to orer. We have been in the business of making umbrellas for over 215 years and value the traditional production methods and hand craft skills which we encourage here in our workshop in Bethnal Green, East London. This combination of quality manufacture and style has been long recognised by local designers, retailers, well known labels, fashion houses and the promotions & incentives industry.
