100% Recycled sunglasses made from ocean & landfill plastic
Unisex sunglasses, many colours and lenses to choose from.
Our glasses really are a load of rubbish.
Each pair is made from 6 to 8 cups of reclaimed and recycled plastic that was thrown away as rubbish.
Reefyll also know that the rubbish brought to us for making these fantastic sunnies helps families who have very little, and that can't be a bad thing.
1st we collect the rubbish.
We buy bags of reclaimed plastic from families in Bali who take the time to bring it to us for recycling.
Then we filter the plastic.
Not all plastic is the same, so we have to make sure we filter out the stuff we can use.
And then the magic.
Our skilled team take the plastic and make unique and individual pairs of sunglasses for you. Each pair is trully unique and can't be copied.
Triacetate Cellulose Polarized Lenses
Thes lenses are made from biodegradable celluslose, the same material used in film and screens. Sourced from cotton, these lenses offer optical clarity similar to glass, and are impact resistant similar to polycarbonate.
Superior UV & Blue Light Protection
Most lenses offer some UV protection, but ours go further with UV400 protection, blocking 100% of UVA & UVB rays. As the protection is embedded in the lenses, it wont wear off over time.
