Now more than ever, sustainability is at the heart of consumer concerns. In the field of optics, this translates into a growing demand for eyewear made from eco-friendly materials and derived from responsible production processes. At IRIS, we share this vision and are committed to supporting brands that incorporate environmentally-friendly practices.
Ecological materials for responsible frames
IRIS partner brands are increasingly focusing on innovative, sustainable materials. These include:
- Recycled metal: reusing aluminum and steel, minimizes the extraction of new resources.
- Recycled ocean plastics: some brands transform marine waste into fashionable, hard-wearing frames.
- Wood and bamboo: natural alternatives that give eyewear a unique style and a reduced ecological footprint.
Greener manufacturing processes
In addition to their choice of materials, the brands we select are committed to reducing their environmental impact throughout the manufacturing process. This means :
- Responsible, local production, limiting transport-related emissions.
- The use of renewable energies in factories.
- Biodegradable or recyclable packaging, reducing plastic waste.
IRIS and its commitment to a sustainable future
At IRIS, we are committed to offering our customers choices that combine style, quality and environmental responsibility. That's why we partner with brands that share our values and are committed to a greener optical industry.
Together, let's choose sustainability for clearer vision and a more responsible future!
