OCEAN CLEANUP SUNGLASSES PATCH
So, what can you expect from a pair of The Ocean Cleanup sunglasses? Here’s a quick rundown: The Ocean Cleanup sunglasses are made with plastic caught in the patch during the System 001/B campaign in 2019. We wanted the look and feel of the sunglasses to be evocative of the ocean – reminding us where they came from and what they are protecting. The nonprofit that partnered with Microsoft to clean up the ocean is now selling 200 sunglasses made from ocean plastic. Then, together with renowned designer Yves Béhar, and Safilo, one of the leading companies in the eyewear industry, we worked to create sunglasses that you will want to use for the rest of your life (or a very long time). Through an independent laboratory, we also conducted extensive tests to ensure that the material is safe to use for sunglasses. By following the process laid out in the public standard developed by DNV GL, the plastic in the frames can be traced all the way back to the Great Pacific Garbage Patch and you can be assured that the plastic in your sunglasses is that same plastic we removed from the patch in 2019. We started by tracking and auditing the plastic the moment it left the ocean. Our mission is to rid the oceans of plastic. I think that this sunglasses are an example of what does it mean taking in account the environmental cost of a product on its final price. My contribution is helping turn a problem into a solution. In doing our bit to combat this and help save vulnerable marine life, every sale of our sunglasses contributes to 12kg of ocean litter being collected through the Australian Seabin Project. When making a product, we wanted to give value to this discarded plastic by turning it into something you never want to lose. Andrea is helping to clean the oceans by wearing The Ocean Cleanup sunglasses. Boyan Slat is turning trash into treasure with a pair of stylish sunglasses made from recycled plastic pulled from the ocean. DESIGNED IN CALIFORNIA BY YVES BEHAR, MADE IN ITALY BY SAFILO
