Eco Optics Offers Chic Styles That Are Made From Recycled Materials

— August 27, 2013 — Social Good
For those that need corrective lens (or that love sunglasses), Eco Optics offers a wide variety of styles that will fit any and all face types, and will even help out the environment along the way. Aside from the fact that each pair of frames from Eco Optics is created using 95% recycled materials, the company even plants a tree with each pair sold to help aid the natural process.

We're living in an age where consumers want an economical alternative, but would still like to have some of the familiarity of standard products. Eco Optics is an innovative eyewear brand that offers contemporary styles, an eco advantage and a sustainable business ethos that's ready for the future.
Trend Themes
1. Eco-friendly Eyewear - Companies can capitalize on the growing demand for eco-conscious products by developing fashionable eyewear made from recycled materials.
2. Sustainability - Sustainability can become a key competitive advantage in the eyewear industry, with green initiatives such as planting trees for each pair sold.
3. Circular Economy - Companies can embrace circular economy principles by using recycled materials to create new, fashionable eyewear designs, reducing waste and reliance on virgin materials.
Industry Implications
1. Eyewear - Eyewear companies can incorporate sustainable and eco-friendly practices to appeal to environmentally conscious consumers.
2. Fashion - Fashion industry players can move towards circular fashion models by incorporating recycled materials and sustainable processes in the production of clothing and accessories like eyewear.
3. Sustainability Consulting - Consulting firms can help eyewear brands adopt sustainable practices, promoting eco-friendly initiatives and finding ways to incorporate recycled materials in production processes.
