Umbrella Wrapper, Dual Chute, Steel - Charcoal

What makes this machine different: charcoal is the compromise finish, in the useful sense. Black shows dust and pale scuffs; mirror stainless shows fingerprints; charcoal pearl grey shows neither particularly. On a site where the machine will be knocked by trolleys, cleaned by a contractor and never really inspected, it is the finish that still looks acceptable in year three.

Umbrella Wrapper, Dual Chute

An umbrella wrapper puts a thin waterproof sleeve over a wet umbrella as the visitor pushes it down into the chute. It is entirely mechanical. Nothing needs power, nothing needs resetting, and nobody needs to be shown how it works.

This model runs two chutes at once, sized separately for folding and full-length umbrellas. Two people can therefore be served in the same few seconds, which is what stops a queue building at the door during the arrival rush.

Why the finish suits hard-use sites

The body is EGI colour-coated steel in pearl grey. The coating is applied over galvanised steel, so it takes knocks without the bright scarring that a scratch leaves on polished stainless. The mid-tone grey also hides the fine dust that settles on anything standing near an automatic door.

Two thousand bags loaded

Capacity is up to 2,000 bags across both chutes. For most buildings that is several weeks of ordinary weather, so the machine is not a daily task for anyone. Top access means a refill takes under a minute, and refill cartons ship from Australian stock.

The safety argument, briefly

Wet entrance flooring is where slip claims come from, and umbrellas are how the water gets there. Taking it off the umbrella at the threshold removes the hazard at its source rather than managing it afterwards with mops and signage. It also keeps entry mats usable instead of saturated by mid-morning.
