Description

The Brelli's unique style is fashioned after the mini-umbrella you might find in your pina colada, or the beautifully minimalistic umbrellas used as props by geishas.
This umbrella is beautiful from inside out, even when it's decomposing! The gases released during the decomposition process is not harmful, and can be harvested to generate enough electricity that replaces about 90% of what was needed to make it in the first place. - It only takes 5 years for the Brelli to biodegrade in a landfill, so if and when it's time for your trusty umbrella to be retired, you can do it with a clear conscious. A conventional umbrella takes hundreds of years for its synthetic fabrics to decompose.

Made with renewable, sustainable and organic resources

BRELLI designed and built the BRELLI so that even in landfill environments, a discarded BRELLI will completely biodegrade in less than five years.....this is only a tiny fraction of the time it takes for a conventional umbrella to biodegrade (estimates range from 40 -80 years for the canopy). BRELLI doesn't have any formal data on how long it takes conventional umbrellas with a metal fram to completely biodegrade because they take so many years. BRELLI has worked diligently to create and use materials that, during their biodegration process, release only harmless gases. the gas released by each discarded BRELLI in a conditional landfill can be harvested to generate enough electricity to recoup more than 90% of the energy that was used to create it.
