Suntribe is an independent Swedish company founded in 2016 with the vision of changing the sunscreen industry. Multiple scientific studies have shown that the ingredients used in conventional sunscreens are harmful both to human health and to oceans and reefs. Suntribe wants to change that with a radical proposal: 100% natural mineral-based sunscreens, free from harmful synthetic chemicals. That’s why they always use safe, natural ingredients, basing every decision on science.
All of their sunscreens have been tested in independent laboratories and verified as safe for you and for nature. An effective mineral sunscreen requires rigorous research—every Suntribe formulation reflects this commitment to quality.
The core technology is based on non-nano zinc oxide, a UV filter considered the safest for human health and marine ecosystems according to scientific studies. This mineral-organic formulation offers broad-spectrum SPF 50, blocking 98% of UVB rays while protecting against UVA. Unlike synthetic chemical filters such as oxybenzone and octinoxate, mineral sunscreens do not harm the skin or the oceans.
The natural stick sunscreen is especially practical for athletes: highly water- and sweat-resistant, it maintains a visible, stable layer even in extreme conditions such as surfing, climbing, or tropical skiing.
The formulation is minimalist—only 3 or 4 certified natural ingredients, with a natural coconut scent. It’s available in five shades with natural pigments (organic cacao, natural ultramarine, natural iron oxide), allowing visible application that makes it easier to check coverage. It does not cause eye irritation and doesn’t leave bothersome residue on your hands after application.
The compact version is ideal to carry in a pocket or backpack. Its stick format with sliding cap makes application easy by gently pushing from the base, designed specifically for face, nose, lips, and ears without hassle.
Suntribe’s sunscreen packaging is made of plastic-free biodegradable cardboard, significantly reducing environmental impact. The compact, portable format is easy to transport with a low footprint, and each unit sold during certain campaigns contributes to marine conservation goals.
Suntribe’s natural sun stick embodies the brand’s philosophy in full: effective sun protection, verified natural ingredients, reef-safe formulation, and a commitment to reducing plastic in the oceans. In short, Suntribe proves that responsible sun protection is an accessible choice for athletes, adventurers, and ocean lovers who want to care for their skin without harming the planet.
