Kortenbach & Rauh is a German steel manufacturer and umbrella manufacturer. The company is based in Solingen, Germany.

The business partners August Kortenbach and Carl Rauh founded their manufacturing plant in Solingen, then a part of Prussia.[1] The company became one of the leading umbrella frame manufacturers in the country.[2]

In 1982 the company took over the traditional company Knirps.

The company also produced the Kortenbach & Rauh Kora 1, which was an unusual twin boom, pusher configuration motor glider, designed and built in Germany in the 1970s and intended as a training aircraft.
