Materials
Prioritising longevity, we believe in designing sustainably, which means crafting umbrellas that are built to last.
Original Duckhead products are thoughtfully engineered and refined for contemporary use. We design umbrellas to endure season after season.
Our commitment extends to our packaging, which includes 100% certified biodegradable poly bags, ensuring all packaging is fully biodegradable in landfills and recyclable at every production stage.
Understanding the environmental impact of production, we are dedicated to eliminating waste at every stage.
9 Plastic Bottles
Our canopies are made from rPET, a recycled fabric made from post-consumer waste, repurposing nine plastic bottles per umbrella and 6 per reusable bag. This material is both versatile and strong.
rPET SCS Recycled Content
Our fabric is certified SCS recycled content. rPET production uses less energy and emits less CO2 compared to polyester and nylon, which significantly reduces our environmental footprint by diverting plastic bottles from waste streams.
Sustainable Birch Wood
Our handles are lightweight, compact and made from sustainably sourced FSC certified solid birch wood. We ensure our handles are sourced from a responsibly managed forest.
High-Strength Frame
Our wind-resistant frames are constructed using high-strength steel and fiberglass, ensuring durability and resilience in any weather.
