The Development Of The Modern History Of Folding Umbrellas

The first mention of a folding umbrella was in 1885 when an American inventor named John Van Wormer patented his "ribbon holder" design. However, it wasn't popular because he couldn't find anyone to make them after he got the patent. It wasn't until 1928 that Hans Haupt invented a pocket umbrella, also known as a telescopic umbrella, which was patented a year later.

Around this time, umbrellas with coils also appeared, allowing the fabric to fold on its own. These are sometimes called "parapluies de soie" or silk umbrellas. An example of this parasol can be found at the Costume Institute at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, while another is on display at the Victoria and Albert Museum (V&A) in London.

When we look back to the early 20th century, people began to steadily adopt waterproof umbrellas instead of sunshades. With the advancement of technology and the ever-faster pace of fashion in recent years, there are no limits to how consumers around the world can use umbrellas.

From personal use (such as carrying when out in the rain) to those working outdoors (such as construction workers). Many people often need protection from downpours and scorching sun throughout the year.

The first Europeans used whalebone to make umbrellas, and although materials have changed as technology has advanced, so has this basic design. Before the advent of aluminum in the 20th century, it was wood, then steel; second, fiberglass, now favored for its light weight and strength.

Today's umbrellas have evolved into many different styles and sizes, can withstand wind speeds of up to 120 km/h (75 mph), and have solar radiation protection technology. Global demand for umbrellas continues to skyrocket, further driving innovation.

Shaoxing Chensheng Umbrella Co., Ltd. is a golf umbrellas manufacturer from China, the company mainly produces three-fold umbrella and two-fold umbrella with logo.
