Wind-broken umbrellas and tents fill our landfills and hospitalize thousands of people every year.

The Solbello® patented design is the only wind-driven umbrella and the only shade to fully work with the wind and cannot fly away in strong winds or gusts.

Solbello provides 64 square feet of 50+ UPF shade. This is ideal for 2-3 people sitting comfortable under the shade, with room leftover for beach gear.

We take UV protection seriously. Solbello’s shade has been tested by multiple ISO (International Organization for Standardization)-certified laboratories and is rated at 50+ UPF. This rating means that Solbello blocks 98% or more of the sun’s ultraviolet (UV) radiation. It’s the highest level of protection available for fabrics and is recommended for anyone looking to minimize their exposure to harmful UV radiation.

Even though Solbello blocks over 98% of the sun’s UV rays, we encourage beachgoers to always use sunblock, as the sun reflecting off the water and sand can still transmit 5% to 15% of UV rays.

The Solbello® Shade is powered by the wind. As little as 3 mph is all that is needed to float the shade effortlessly above you.

What if the wind changes direction?

No Wind? No problem!

A No-Wind Kit is included for those rare days that the wind isn't blowing at the beach. Do not use the No-Wind Kit in wind if the ground conditions don't allow the stakes to be planted securely. Always use your best judgement and use at your own risk.

The Beach

Beaches are the best environment for Solbello, providing ample space and sea breeze airflow necessary for optimal product performance. Flat, wide-open beaches are the most suitable.

Just Beaches?

The Solbello® has been used on boats that are equipped with fishing rod holders. The Solbello® fits nicely into rod holders providing shade when the boat is not moving or at slow speeds.

All Beaches?

Solbello is permitted on nearly every beach and is the safest single-pole umbrella you can get! However, to our knowledge, the following beaches may not allow Solbello between Memorial Day and Labor Day: Myrtle Beach (SC), Rehoboth Beach (DE), and Brant Beach (NJ).

Beach-Safe?

Solbello has recently become certified as 'beach-safe' under the new ASTM safety standard endorsed by the CPSC (Consumer Product Safety Commission). We hope that ordinances will soon change to prioritize caution. Learn more about this new Safety Standard under 'Certifications and Patents' below.
