Fabric & Technical Innovation Industry News (Core Trends of Sun Umbrellas)

 

1. Iteration of Sun Protection Coated Fabrics: Color Glue & Titanium Silver Replace Traditional Silver Glue (Textile Industry News, July 2026)

 

1. Low-grade silver glue is gradually phased out by overseas buyers due to poor adhesion and weak heat insulation performance.

2. Black glue: The mainstream option on the market, boasting UPF50+ rating and 99% light blocking rate with cost-effective pricing. Double-layer coating technology improves its durability.

3. Color glue (the fabric adopted for your products): A mid-range hit in 2026. It features colorful printed outer surface with sun-proof inner coating, attractive in appearance, making it the top choice for supermarket retail and gift orders.

4. Titanium silver coating: Premium upgraded material that reflects heat and brings a cooler sensation under the umbrella. It is specified for high-end orders from Europe, America and the Middle East.

5. Recycled RPET umbrella fabric (made from recycled mineral water bottles) has seen surging overseas demand; EU clients mandate GRS environmental certification for this material.
