THE STORY ABOUT CORAL EYEWEAR

 

BRITISH DESIGN. RECYCLED MATERIALS. 

Coral Eyewear was founded in 2019 to create high-quality, recycled glasses and sunglasses using materials such as rescued fishing nets. The company is led by Calvin Bailey who has previously held management roles with independent opticians and major optical retailers such as Boots Opticians.

 

 

SHOWCASING NEW MATERIALS

 

 Their optical frames are now stocked in over 300 stores across the UK and Australia, and we’ve sold thousands of pairs of glasses and sunglasses to countries across the world. 

 

 

COMMITMENT TO SUSTAINABILITY

 

THE PROBLEM

There are approximately 640,000 tonnes of abandoned fishing nets in our oceans. The majority of eyewear brands use virgin plastic, further contributing to damaging the planet.

 

THE SOLUTION

They only use recycled or bio-based materials for their frames such as ECONYL, the material made from rescued waste found at sea and in landfills. They use recyclable packaging and their carbon-neutral delivery offsets environmental shipping costs too.
