JINS&SUN recently launched its first biodegradable sunglasses with the Classic Collection, which fuses traditional designs with innovative and sustainable materials. The designs make the most of the plant-based bioplastic M49, which was developed by Italian polymer manufacturer Mazzucchelli as an alternative to acetate. Unlike this plastic used in most eyewear frames, M49 has the ability to break down quickly after disposal. The material is highly durable, lightweight and comfortable to wear, making it a perfect choice for the new sunglasses styles.
To help its newest sustainable offering reach a wide range of consumers, the brand set accessible pricing for its high-quality Classic Collection. Since the parts can be separated for easy recycling at the end of their useful life, this also means that the glasses can be maintained for longer.
