Environmental Impact

Our 2024 SUN collection has saved:

- 264,647.32 m3 of water compared to a conventional production. - 74,567.54 kg of CO2 compared to conventional production. - 747,033.83 MJ, equivalent to 87 MAD-NY flights by plane.

Once the waste has been identified, it is taken to waste processing plants that condition it so that it can later be converted into spectacles in our factory.

Afterwards, the manufacturing process takes place in two sub-processes. The first one is the transformation of waste into raw material and the second one is the processing of this raw material into optical frames.

The material is melted and injected to shape the frame, then cleaned and polished before the lenses and straps are mounted on them.

Our production is located in China because of its proximity to raw materials and because it is the country where most waste is generated. The city where our factory is located is Wenzhou, a specialist in the production and design of eyewear.

The production of recycled eyewear in China is more than just a trend; it is a comprehensive commitment to sustainability. Companies are adopting eco-friendly production practices at every stage of the process, from the collection and selection of recycled materials to manufacturing and distribution. This holistic approach translates into a smaller carbon footprint and the conservation of valuable natural resources.

Since we were born in 2014, we have saved more than:

PET plastic bottles

HDPE plastic bottles

Kg of coffee grounds

Tires

Aluminium cans

We produce our glasses from 6 recycled or organic materials. Upcycling gives a second life to waste from landfills, helping to reduce pollution and solve the enormous amount of waste humanity is facing.
