Made in Sydney
Rest assured no person, nor the planet, is exploited in the making of our glasses. We invented the process and control all manufacturing on the ground.

Perfect fit frame
Front: 142mm. Arm: 136mm. Bridge: 12mm. Lens height: 45mm.

100% recycled frame
The entire frame, including the hinges, is made from the plastic of 1 x 600ml discarded single-use plastic bottle. This means 70-75% less CO2 is used in our manufacturing & we have zero material waste.

Lenses 100% UV protection
UV400 CAT3 lenses by Carl Zeiss Vision providing premium optical clarity & protection.

Detail lovers: Our sun lenses meet the Australian requirements of AS/NZS1067:2016 and European EN ISO 12312-1:2013+A1:2015 standards for sunglasses.

Repair & customise
You can mix up your style by swapping all parts. And if you have a mishap or your dog munches your frames, you can repair them easily as everything clicks together in seconds.

100% recycled packaging
Box 100% recycled cardboard. Case & cleaning cloth 100% recycled from 2.75 plastic bottles.

We're glad you clicked this link. As soon as you buy a pair of our sunnies, good things happen thanks to you.

1. Our 100% recycled bottle plastic is processed and turned into your frames in Sydney, so everyone gets a fair wage.

2. Carl Zeiss Vision Australia cuts & fits your lenses in Adelaide.

3. Our dispatch centre is run by people with disability and their carers. They box up your order using 100% recycled packaging. We use Australia Post.

4. We fund and stop 10kg of CO2 from reaching the atmosphere per pair sold. Audited by C2Zero.

5. Every pair funds and stops 1/2 kg of plastic trash (equ. to 25 x plastic bottles) from reaching a waterway. Audited by PlasticBank.

6. Each sale helps fund our work in education. Our clever design and thinking is now included in the Victorian Education Curriculum. We've also taught at UTS, UNSW, RMIT & the SHAPE HSC Seminars at the Powerhouse Museum. We believe in fostering the next generation of thinkers.

7. To achieve our mission of untrashing the planet, we have to attract new customers and to do that we have to advertise across many different channels. It's just part of doing good business but it doesn't come cheap!

When you add all this up, we hope you'll agree our pricing is fair and you'll see your contribution is making real change.

The word 'sustainable' is overused and can be confusing. So to be clear, this is our version of sustainable.

100% recycled frames
Our frames are made from the plastic of one discarded post -consumer PET bottle. Nothing else is added - no metal, no screws - making them recyclable too.

Ethical manufacturing
We make our frames in Sydney so we can control the manufacturing process to ensure no one nor the planet is harmed. And no cheap labour!

End of life
We take back broken parts to be recycled. Please email us and we’ll give you the free Reply Paid address to send them to.

Less CO2
Because we use only 100% recycled plastic in our frames, we use 70-75% less CO2 in our manufacturing than almost all other brands who use virgin materials (brand new plastic/ bioacetate).

Less waste
Our manufacturing process is zero waste. Every piece of our off-cut plastic finds a new home.

Less energy
Because we've reengineered the frame, we use less energy in our production. We make a frame in 100 seconds instead of the typical 100 hours.

Sunnies made by the sun
Our manufacturing partner has installed some serious solar panels on the factory roof. We only run our frame making machines in the day to take advantage of this renewable power. Good job the sun always shines in Sydney!

Lenses
Our lenses are manufactured by Carl Zeiss Vision in Hong Kong. We cut and fit our lenses at Zeiss in Adelaide.

Box, case & cloth
All are made from 100% recycled materials in our certified factories in China (via our local agent in Sydney).

Plastic removal
Through Plastic Bank, we prevent plastic waste from reaching the ocean. The process 100% traceable and certified. Each pair sold removes 0.5kg (equiv. to 25 plastic bottles) from rivers and waterways.

Carbon removal
We lock away 10kg of CO2 through C2Zero who uses Mastercard Blockchain.

Delivery
We use compostable mailing satchels that you can bury in your garden and we use Australia Post's carbon neutral postal service.
