ALL ABOUT GLÆCO EYEWEAR
Where Sustainability Meets Style
Picture yourself with a pair of Glæco sunglasses, the epitome of eco-conscious eyewear. Born in Glasgow with a touch of French flair, these sunglasses redefine what it means to be fashionable while caring for the planet.
Glæco sunglasses are crafted using cutting-edge 3D printing technology, utilising post-consumer recycled materials and powered by renewable electricity. Waste is a thing of the past, as the frames are meticulously 3D printed from recycled plastic trays, minimising resource usage.
​
We do not stop at the product itself – even the packaging is thoughtfully designed. Our packaging is crafted from recycled paper and board, while the pouches are made from discarded plastic bottles. Every aspect of Glæco Eyewear is compliant with regulations, proudly bearing the CE and UKCA certification, and adhering to EU directives and UK regulations.
​
When you wear Glæco sunglasses, comfort and convenience come hand in hand. Our polarized lenses provide optimal protection from harmful UV rays while remaining lightweight. For on-the-go individuals, the floatability ensures your sunglasses are both secure and easy to locate. Cleaning and protecting your eyewear is a breeze, with a recycled pouch that allows for reuse and recycling.
​
By choosing Glæco, you are not just making a sustainable choice – you are joining a movement. Our mission is to help people live more sustainably, from cradle to grave. Unlike other lenses, Glæco's acetate lenses are derived from wood pulp instead of crude oil, reducing our reliance on fossil fuels. Our energy is 100% renewable, sourced locally from the UK. Furthermore, our manufacturing process leaves no waste, embracing additive manufacturing techniques in Scotland.
​
Embrace the circularity of Glæco sunglasses, as they can be reused time and time again. By supporting UK manufacturing and using recycled materials, our eyewear embodies the essence of sustainability. With Glæco, you not only look good but feel good knowing you have made a conscious choice for the environment.
