ECO by MODO EYE WEAR

ECO stands for Earth Conscious Optics

Frames are made of 95% recycled stainless steel- that’s right, even metal gets a second chance!

Frames are made of 95% recycled plastic

The ECO collection carries a UL Environment Validation certifying the products are made from a minimum of 95 percent recycled materials.

The fabric of each case and clip-on sleeve uses recycled PET (polyethylene terephthalate, a form of polyester)

All eyewear packaging is made of recycled paper and includes a cotton pouch

Did you know for every pair of glasses sold there is one tree planted? Well it’s true! A tree is planted in partnership with Trees for the Future, a non-profit organization that has helped communities around the world plant trees since 1989. Trees for the future works to teach farmers and community members the importance of eco-friendly agroforestry and other sustainable farming techniques which in turn give benefits including improved soil, recurring crop yields and a sustainable food source as well as a regular income. Feel good when you buy an eco frame, you are giving back to the environment AND its inhabitants!

Optical frames AND sunglasses?

Worried you need to buy sunglasses from the Eco collection separately? Don’t be! The Eco frames also come with a custom magnetic clip-on! Two sets of glasses for the price of one and less garbage for the planet sounds good to us! How about you?
