Blunt Umbrellas
Pioneering Durability and Style in Weather Protection
Founded in New Zealand in 2009 by innovator Greig Brebner, Blunt has redefined the standards of personal weather protection. Renowned for their robust construction and elegant design, Blunt Umbrellas combine cutting-edge technology and environmental sustainability, making them a leader in the global umbrella market.
Here are some interesting aspects of Blunt Umbrellas:
1. Revolutionary Radial Tensioning System
At the core of success of the Blunt Umbrellas design is the patented Radial Tensioning System (RTS). This groundbreaking technology ensures that the tension is evenly distributed across the umbrella's canopy, providing unparalleled resistance against heavy winds—tested up to 75 mph (120 kph). This feature not only enhances durability but also improves aerodynamics, preventing the umbrellas from flipping inside out during extreme weather.
2. Safety First with Blunt Tips
Blunts are instantly recognisable by their signature blunt tips. This innovative design eliminates sharp edges, enhancing safety and protecting users from common eye injuries associated with traditional umbrellas. The rounded tips also contribute to the sleek, modern aesthetic of the umbrellas, setting them apart in both functionality and style.
3. Commitment to Durability and Sustainability
Dedicated to creating products that last, Blunt utilizes only premium materials to ensure longevity and reduce environmental impact. The company's sustainability efforts are further demonstrated through their unique repair program, which encourages the repair and reuse of umbrellas, significantly reducing landfill waste.
4. Stylish Versatility
Blunt offers an extensive range of designs, sizes, and colours to suit every personality and need. From compact models perfect for the bustling city life to larger golf umbrellas designed for open spaces, there is an umbrella for every situation. Exclusive artist collaborations also offer limited edition umbrellas, making them not just practical but also a statement of style.
