Quality
Quality control you can check
Every order goes through the same three-stage inspection, and our factory and products are audited and tested by independent bodies.
Three-stage inspection
Problems are cheapest to fix before they reach the production line, so checks start with the raw materials.
Before production
Raw materials are checked against your specification before production starts.
- Fabric, colour and coating
- Frame, ribs and shaft
- Handles and fittings
During production
Inspectors take random samples from every batch on the line.
- Stitching and frame tension
- Opening and closing mechanism
- Print position and accuracy
Final inspection
Finished umbrellas are sampled to AQL 2.5 before packing.
- Waterproofing and UV coating
- Wind resistance
- Finish and packing
