At Sonnenglas, we believe that light can change lives. Every product is handmade in Africa, combining traditional craftsmanship with sustainable innovation. Our mission goes beyond providing clean, solar-powered light: we create opportunities, empower communities, and nurture a brighter future. Fair Trade is at the heart of everything we do. In our Johannesburg factory, we employ young talents and local artisans. By supporting young people, historically disadvantaged communities and the traditional art scene, we turn work into empowerment, not just employment. Sustainability guides every step of our process. The innovative SOMO solar light powers all Sonnenglas products, from Sun Jars to Light Carafes. It can be flexibly swapped between products to ensure convenience, durability, and eco-conscious design. “Light for a Brighter Future” is more than our motto, it’s the impact we want to bring to homes and communities worldwide, especially where electricity is not a given, and load shedding and power outages are part of everyday life.
