When the Gift Speaks to Your Values
For Certified B Corp companies and sustainability-focused organisations, corporate gifting is never just about brand visibility - it’s about living your values. Every gift should delight its recipient while also reinforcing the principles at the heart of your brand: sustainability, quality, and thoughtful design.
That’s where Original Duckhead umbrellas make their mark. While other corporate gifting companies push mass-produced eco-notebooks or bamboo cutlery, we go further. Each Original Duckhead umbrella is crafted from nine recycled plastic bottles, built with PFAS- and PFC-free materials, and designed to last for years. The result? A gift that is as practical as it is purposeful - an object that carries your brand’s values in everyday life.
Why Sustainability Isn’t Optional
In 2025, B Corps know that greenwashing falls flat; true impact speaks louder. Today’s clients, employees, and stakeholders expect corporate gifts that are genuinely sustainable, durable, and responsibly made.
A branded umbrella does more than create visibility - it becomes a long-term companion, weathering commutes, business trips, and weekends. While disposable swag ends up in landfill within days, Original Duckhead umbrellas stay in circulation for years, reducing waste and maximising brand exposure.
Crafted From Recycled Materials, Yet Exceptionally Stylish
Eco-friendly corporate gifts don’t need to sacrifice style. Original Duckhead proves that sustainable swag can be both premium and beautiful.
Recycled PET fabric: Each Original Duckhead product is made from up to 9 post-consumer recycled plastic bottles.
PFAS- and PFC-free: No harmful chemicals - safer for people and planet.
UV protection: Built-in sun protection adds year-round value.
Design-led models: Choose from the iconic Duck Umbrella or the sleek Daily Umbrella.
This is not token “eco-swag.” This is design-led, premium sustainable gifting - the kind appreciated by leading voices in design such as MoMA and Selfridges.
What Sets Our B Corp Approach Apart
While competitors may offer a selection of “sustainable items,” Original Duckhead embodies sustainability at its core. As a certified B Corp, we meet the highest standards of environmental and social accountability - not just in our products, but in our operations, supply chain, and packaging.

Real-World Impact & Client Stories
At a trade, one B Corp consultancy gifted Original Duckhead umbrellas in their brand colours. The umbrellas were so well-received that attendees shared them on social media as proof of values-driven, design-led gifting.
Imagine your CEO stepping into a rainy investor meeting with a custom-branded Duck Umbrella. Instead of handing out a forgettable notebook or tote bag, your brand has gifted an object of daily use, imbued with style, practicality, and purpose. That’s the power of premium sustainable corporate gifting.
