Strotz AG is the only umbrella factory in Switzerland—and one of the few still in operation in Europe. In Uznach, approximately 8,000 umbrellas are still manufactured in-house each year. In addition to producing rain umbrellas, the seven experienced production employees also specialize in the manufacture of garden and boat umbrellas.

Made with Quality

It takes about 40 minutes to produce an umbrella: The fabric panels are first roughly cut by hand and then precisely cut with a die-cutting knife; after that, the umbrella segments—including the closure strap and snap button—are sewn together. This is followed by sewing on small metal tips, attaching the shaft to the fabric, and mounting the handle.
