Blunt
Engineered for Life's Storms.
The Blunt Story
Visit BluntBlunt was founded by Greig Brebner, a design engineer from New Zealand. His inspiration struck on the rainy streets of London, where he observed the common sight of broken, discarded umbrellas. Frustrated by their poor design and short lifespan, Brebner set out to reinvent the umbrella. Growing up in his father's workshop fostered a love for making things, and after years of development, including at his father's plastics factory, he patented his innovative Radial Tensioning System (RTS™). This system became the core of Blunt umbrellas, designed to create a highly tensioned, aerodynamic, and robust canopy. The company has since grown into a global brand, recognized for its commitment to quality, performance, and challenging the "throwaway culture" associated with conventional umbrellas. Their focus on repairability, offering replacement parts and tutorials, underscores their dedication to product longevity and customer satisfaction.
