Rayn Rain Collecting Sunshade

Rayn

Rayn is a rain collecting sunshade designed for urban balconies and gardens. The parasol gathers rainwater in an integrated tank with a capacity of 88 litres, so plants can be watered without carrying a can from indoors. An intelligent purification device treats the stored water, and an overflow system releases excess water through the umbrella tube. Metal, wood and waterproofed tarpaulin are used for durability. A knob opens and closes the shade, while a screen shows the collected water. The combined form suits balconies with limited space.

Rayn Rain Collecting Sunshade by Ziel Home Furnishing Technology Co., Ltd has been featured as an exceptional example of industrial design by the A' Design Award. Rayn Rain Collecting Sunshade won the Bronze A' Design Award in Garden and Outdoor Furniture Design in 2024. The A' Garden and Outdoor Furniture Design Award is a highly prestigious international design award that recognizes superior design of deck chairs, garden benches, picnic tables, patio sets, outdoor daybeds, hammocks, fire pits, sun loungers and more.
