Mini compact 20.5’ rPET umbrella Impact AWARE™

A promotional umbrella committed to fighting greenwashing

In a world where sustainability claims are everywhere, distinguishing genuine commitment from mere marketing is crucial for professionals. This is where the mini umbrella from the Impact collection, offered by BrandedGift, comes in. This product is not just a rain accessory ; it embodies a desire for total transparency. Thanks to the integration of AWARE™ technology, this model guarantees that the fabric used actually comes from recycled sources. Unlike conventional products whose origin is sometimes vague, the use of this physical tracer and a blockchain system certifies the authenticity of textile materials. By choosing this accessory for your employees or partners, you send a strong message about your organization’s values.

AWARE™ technology serving transparency

The manufacturing of this umbrella relies on a major innovation. The AWARE™ tracer is integrated directly into the recycled PET (rPET) fiber at the start of the production process. This digital footprint, verifiable at every stage of the supply chain, ensures that environmental claims are based on measurable facts. This model is made from seven recycled PET bottles, turning plastic waste into a useful and durable object. In addition to this circular economy, production relies on reliable Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) data. For every item sold, 2 % of the proceeds are donated directly to Water.org, an international organization working for access to safe water and sanitation worldwide. It is therefore a corporate gift that generates a concrete positive impact, far beyond its primary function.

Robust design and practical format for everyday use

Beyond its ecological virtues, this umbrella has been designed to meet the demands of active life in Switzerland. Its three-part manual opening structure gives it remarkable compactness. Its small size allows it to be slipped effortlessly into a work bag, a laptop case, or even the glove compartment of a company car. The metal shaft and ribs ensure a stable and reliable structure during unexpected showers. The handle, made of polypropylene, offers a pleasant and secure grip. The 190T rPET fabric provides effective protection against the elements while remaining environmentally friendly. It is the perfect backup tool to never be caught off guard during a commute between client meetings or at an outdoor event.

An ethical and safety-focused commitment

Safety and compliance with international standards are at the heart of this product’s design. This umbrella complies with numerous strict European and international directives, particularly regarding heavy metal and chemical content. It adheres to the Cadmium Directive 91/338/EC and REACH regulations regarding the safety of chemical substances. The absence of chlorinated paraffines and phthalates guarantees safe use for the end user. Furthermore, production follows BSCI social audit standards, ensuring respectful working conditions throughout the manufacturing chain. By choosing this model via BrandedGift, you are opting for a healthy, ethical product whose authenticity is checked with every shipment. It is a promotional communication solution that enhances your brand image while respecting your CSR commitments.X_01072
