This umbrella is unlike the traditional ones. You can use them as long as you need and return the same to any vending machine. All you need to do is deposit few bucks using your smart card and avail the umbrella for rent whenever it rains. To talk about the materials used, renkasa is made entirely out of a single material, PET – Tokyo’s most recycled plastic. Besides being naturally waterproof, this umbrella design is adaptable to several forms. The usage of plastic in its design paved way for a less complex structure largely. Key areas of improvement of the proposed Renkasa umbrella model include cutback of material preparation, less complicated assembly and shared use.
