Plant-Based Bioplastic Eyewear

The 'TURTL' Eco-Friendly Sunglasses Break Down After Use

Plastic is a prominent material in the eyewear market, which is something the 'TURTL' eco-friendly sunglasses combat against with a distinctly more sustainable profile. The sunglasses are all crafted using bioplastics that will break down after use in just 115 days to make them a far more sustainable alternative to conventional plastic that won't decompose for hundreds of years. The stylish eyewear is just as strong as high-end alternatives on the market and come in an array of striking colors for wearers to choose from.

The 'TURTL' eco-friendly sunglasses are capable of delivering flawless clarity for the wearer through the polarized BioNylon lenses and will also provide 100% UV protection to ensure they're as safe as possible for all-day wear.
