In the UK we have around 130 rainy days a year, therefore when you give promotional umbrellas as gifts you can be assured that they will be kept and used on a regular basis.

Here are 5 reasons why promotional umbrellas make great gifts.

1. Large print areas

With logo print areas in excess of 300mm, promotional umbrellas offer huge brand exposure. Your brand can be seen from up to 50 meters, which means it will visible in crowds, at sporting events, corporate functions and anywhere else where there are people around.

2. Long lasting and durable

When buying quality promotional umbrellas, you can be assured they will last for a long time. For instance, a storm-proof umbrella has been specifically designed to blow inside out in strong winds. A sturdy fibreglass ribbed frame protects it from damage, which means it can be used again and again.

3. A must-have item

If you add a fantastic vibrant design and strong brand message, your promotional umbrella may even be transformed into a must-have fashion item, a statement about the person carrying it. The Union Jack umbrella is the perfect example.

4. On brand

With over 60 canopy colours to choose from on a golf umbrella, you can design your promotional umbrellas to be totally on brand. Multi-colour print options will allow you to transfer your print or poster campaigns onto your umbrellas easily, keeping your message consistent and instantly recognisable.

5. Proven success

Umbrellas are in the top 20 of the UK’s most popular promotional products. And with a UK spend of just over £10 million a year (according to Sourcing Planet), promotional umbrellas make a proven and great addition to a company’s range of branded merchandise.

Arcadia has recently launched the new 2016 Promotional Umbrella Catalogue, which you can order a free copy of here. Alternatively, look at our promotional umbrellas range online.
