About Us
Nobody notices an umbrella on a sunny day, but the moment it rains your brand is two metres wide and moving through a crowd at eye level. Umbrellas Only is the dedicated umbrella site of the PromotionsOnly group, based in Lane Cove, Sydney. Since 2003 we have supplied more than 180,000 umbrellas across over 3,600 jobs, from kids umbrellas for Sushi Train to executive umbrellas for the Global Investment Institute.
The Range
Golf umbrellas are our best seller, the big canopy that doubles as a corporate gift and a fairway billboard. Executive umbrellas are the other favourite, the sort Treasury Wine Estates orders as corporate unisex umbrellas for clients and staff. Compact umbrellas live in handbags and glove boxes, and market umbrellas look after cafes, stalls and outdoor venues, where the canopy works as permanent signage.
Printed Inside and Out
Here is the capability most umbrella suppliers do not have: full colour sublimation on both the outside and the inside of the canopy fabric. The outside carries your brand to the street. The inside is a private canvas the person holding it looks up at every time it rains, and it is some of the most underused advertising space in the industry. Sky prints, product shots, full artwork, whatever suits the brand. Standard screen printing and full colour digital transfers cover conventional jobs, with local production at a standard two weeks.
Who We Work With
The client list runs from investment institutes to sushi chains, wine estates to churches, the Seventh Day Adventist Church among them with their white Torrent umbrellas. Promotional resellers can access trade discounts through our reseller application.
Our Story
PromotionsOnly opened in a home office in 2003 with its prices published online from day one, an almost unheard of practice in the industry at the time. North Ryde came next, then Lane Cove in 2005, where the business remains. The group has completed more than 200,000 jobs across its specialist sites, supported by a Sydney team and its own office in China, which is what keeps capabilities like double sided canopy sublimation within reach at Australian promotional pricing.
Under the Same Umbrella
Every month for over 15 years, this business has donated to WWF, Sea Shepherd, Medecins Sans Frontieres, World Vision, sponsoring two children through them, and Monika's Doggie Rescue in Sydney, and has supplied the Humpty Dumpty Foundation at cost or free for more than a decade. Registered charities receive a discount off the prices shown on the site.
An umbrella is the promotional product people are gladdest to have been given, at the exact moment they need it most. Make it a good one and it gets kept by the door for years, brand up, every wet morning. One hundred and eighty thousand canopies in, we make good ones.
