Our passion for umbrellas has defined who we are and what we do since 1946 - every day and in all types of weather. Our products are there for people out in the elements of nature - in the sun, rain, snow and wind.

For the past 75 years, the doppler brand has been synonymous with competence, innovation, and quality. The expansion of the company that has been family-run since 1946 is now successfully being continued in the fourth generation. Today, doppler is an internationally operating production and trading company with subsidiaries in Europe and Asia as well as customers in over 40 countries.

The two most important global brands for umbrellas and parasols, doppler and Knirps, are part of the company group. The headquarters are located in Braunau, Austria. The new doppler factory built in 1999 is regarded as Europe's largest umbrella factory. In total, doppler has around 360 employees, of which 200 are based at its main factory in Austria.

The time between its establishment and the present spans more than seven decades. A lot has changed over time – the products, the markets, and the people. Dedication to the highest quality and the strongest commitment to customers and employees remains the same.
