In celebration of Earth Month and Earth Day, Sunbolt, provider of portable and integrated solar technology, announced the launch of its latest innovation: a super lightweight aluminum umbrella that provides shade, while generating renewable energy.
Crafted with flexibility, sustainability and convenience in mind, the aluminum Eclipse umbrella is a bold step forward in reimagining how we integrate clean technology into everyday spaces, Sunbolt said in a release. At the heart of the design are ultralight, flexible solar panels, each weighing less than three pounds, embedded into the aluminum design. The result is an elegant, modern umbrella that harnesses solar power while enhancing outdoor environments.
Designed for seamless use across campuses, parks, patios and other outdoor gathering spots, the umbrella can be easily connected to existing tables and surfaces, allowing users to chill and charge, whether it’s powering a laptop, phone or other small device.
“Our goal with this product was to prove that sustainability doesn’t have to sacrifice design or convenience,” said Vanessa Branco, chief marketing officer at Sunbolt. “By rethinking how and where solar power can be applied, we’re creating opportunities for clean energy in the places people already live, study, relax and connect.”
Beyond the functionality, the featherlight structure and minimalist aesthetics mean it’s easy to install and reposition, Sunbolt said, while the durability also allows users to keep the umbrella in use year-round — making it ideal for dynamic spaces and evolving needs.
This launch exemplifies Sunbolt’s ongoing commitment to pushing green technology forward, offering smart solutions that merge utility, sustainability and style. It’s the kind of innovation that celebrates Earth Day not just in spirit, but in action.
