超極輕一鍵式自動折傘 VERYKAL
"One-touch folding is super convenient, but it's so heavy, it feels like carrying a brick around!"
"Luggage, bags, kids, but my hands are full. Manual opening and closing, it's so inconvenient not to have a free hand!"

"Folding umbrellas are bulky and never fit in my bag!"
"It doesn't dry easily, and the wet canopy is so uncomfortable!"
"Folding umbrellas are so fragile, a strong gust of wind makes them invert!"

The world's lightest one-touch automatic folding umbrella, weighing only 164 grams, and it opens in 3 seconds!
While one-touch automatic folding umbrellas are convenient, many feature-rich products are not light and are difficult to carry around.
Similar sized products on the market weigh between 220g and 450g.
超極輕一鍵式自動折傘 VERYKAL

VERYKAL is only 164 grams, lighter than an iPhone, and about the size of a banana.
Easily fits into a bag, it can be called "The world's lightest one-touch automatic folding umbrella!"
“ Easy-Dry” fabric treatment, highly water repellent, can be used continuously for a long time!

Easy-Dry is a product developed by Amvel over many years, featuring a highly water-repellent fabric. Through nanoscale particulate water repellent, the water-repellent coating can penetrate into the fibers, making it difficult to shed.

Tested by an impartial third-party inspection agency, manual degradation water repellency tests were performed, with over 50 washes, and the post-test rating was 90 points. This indicates excellent waterproofing, whereas general water repellency tests only involve 3 washes, with a rating of 80 points or higher considered satisfactory.
VERYKAL commissioned a factory certified with OEKO-TEX®Standard100 to produce it. This certification is one of the world's renowned textile industry labels, used to detect whether textiles contain harmful substances that affect human health, serving as a reference for consumers to purchase environmentally friendly textiles.
Wind resistance up to 12m/second after multiple tests

Under normal circumstances, for a lighter umbrella, a strong gust of wind might break the frame.
However, VERYKAL is not only lightweight but also prioritizes sturdiness, which is why it was designed with an umbrella-shaped frame structure, with optimized material combinations and dimensions, while also being able to withstand wind speeds of 12m/second.
During testing, wind speed was gradually increased, but there is no guarantee it can withstand sudden strong winds in real-world scenarios.
During typhoons, the umbrella itself may be blown away and damaged by the wind. Please avoid using it in strong winds according to actual conditions.

Each one is strictly controlled and undergoes 500 cycles of deployment and retraction function tests!

VERYKAL has obtained third-party inspection approval. The inspection involves 500 cycles of deployment and retraction operations at a speed of 6 times per minute, checking that deployment and retraction operations are smooth and without any anomalies. So far, very few production companies publicly disclose this.

The main part of the umbrella frame is made of lightweight and durable carbon fiber, a specialized material used in aircraft manufacturing. The main frame has a three-bend structure, two of which use carbon fiber, and VERYKAL's main frame has 6 ribs, with a size of 54 cm.

Many umbrellas on the market, in pursuit of lightness, reduce the product size during manufacturing, decreasing the rib specification to 5 ribs, or limiting the umbrella canopy size to 50 cm.
However, to ensure strength and practicality, VERYKAL still adheres to a 6-rib main frame and a 54 cm canopy size. As of November 2019, it remains the lightest automatic umbrella of its size in the world.

The handle is designed with moderately rounded corners for easier grip. Compared to square handles, it feels much more comfortable to hold, and you won't feel uncomfortable even after prolonged holding. By reducing the handle size, it has also become lighter, and the material is made of high-impact-resistant ABS resin.

超極輕一鍵式自動折傘 VERYKAL

VERYKAL is an ultra-lightweight one-touch automatic folding umbrella developed by Amvel, a Japanese umbrella technology R&D company. Its key features include an extremely light weight of 164g, 3-second rapid opening and closing, EasyDry super water-repellent fabric, and 12m/s wind resistance. If you've been looking for a truly convenient, easy-to-carry folding umbrella that stays dry and is durable, VERYKAL is designed precisely for that need.


✦ Why are many automatic folding umbrellas not good?

While many one-touch automatic folding umbrellas are convenient, common issues include:

  • The umbrella body is too heavy, becoming a burden in your bag.
  • The fabric doesn't dry quickly enough, leaving it soggy after closing.
  • The frame isn't sturdy enough and deforms easily in strong winds.
  • It's too bulky, making it hard to carry daily.

VERYKAL's design focuses on addressing these pain points one by one, ensuring that "convenience" no longer sacrifices "lightness" and "practicality."


✦ 164g Ultra-Lightweight, Truly Suitable for Daily Carry

VERYKAL weighs only 164g, making it lighter than most similar automatic folding umbrellas on the market. It won't be a burden in your handbag, backpack, or commuter bag. It's so lightweight that you can almost carry it every day, so you're never caught without an umbrella when the weather is unpredictable.


✦ One-Touch Automatic Opening and Closing, 3-Second Quick Use

This umbrella features a one-touch automatic folding function, opening with just one press in about 3 seconds. This design is particularly practical when your hands are full with documents, shopping bags, luggage, or when caring for children. It allows for single-handed operation, making it more convenient to use.


✦ EasyDry Super Water-Repellent Fabric, Resists Water Penetration Even with Prolonged Use

VERYKAL uses the EasyDry fabric treatment technology, exclusively developed by a Japanese team, which provides powerful water repellency. This fabric is treated with nanoscale water-repellent technology, preventing water droplets from clinging to the canopy and making it easier to stay dry after closing.

After artificial degradation water repellency tests, the fabric maintains good performance even after multiple washes, indicating that it's not just about short-term effects but is more suitable for long-term daily use.


✦ Wind Resistance up to 12m/s, More Secure in Everyday Wind and Rain

The biggest fear with lightweight umbrellas is that they'll invert in a gust of wind. VERYKAL has been repeatedly tested and has a wind resistance of up to 12m/s, providing more stable performance in typical daily use. While it's still not recommended for typhoons or sudden strong winds, it's more than sufficient for everyday urban commuting and outings.


✦ 6-Rib 54cm Canopy, Balancing Lightness and Practicality

Many ultra-light umbrellas sacrifice the number of ribs or canopy size to reduce weight. VERYKAL, however, retains a 6-rib design and a 54cm canopy, striking a balance between lightness and practicality. This means it's not just made to be light; it also considers the actual needs of daily rain protection.


✦ Passed Rigorous Opening and Closing Tests

Every VERYKAL umbrella undergoes 500 cycles of opening and closing tests to ensure smooth operation. Such tests are crucial for daily folding umbrellas, as the opening and closing mechanism is often the first thing to fail with actual use. For frequent travelers, stability and durability are more important than flashy features.

  • When folding and placing it in a bag, it's advisable to use a sleeve to keep other items dry.

✦ Q&A

Q: Is 164g really stable enough? Won't it be too light and easily break?
A: While VERYKAL weighs only 164g, it doesn't simply reduce material; it balances lightness and durability through optimized structure, rib configuration, and materials. It has passed 12m/s wind resistance tests and 500 opening/closing cycles, making it suitable for daily urban use.

Q: Is this umbrella suitable for Hong Kong's humid weather?
A: Yes, it is. The EasyDry water-repellent fabric helps the canopy dry faster, which is particularly useful in Hong Kong's common humid weather and sudden downpours. More than just being lightweight, this umbrella is designed for practical long-term daily use.
