Vilo Eyewear is an eco-friendly wooden sunglasses brand that has set out to deliver innovative ways of providing customers with a circular recycling program, effectively preventing sunglasses from going to landfill.
When you donate your old pair of plastic sunglasses, Vilo offers a discount on a new pair of wooden sunglasses. Vilo believes wooden sunglasses are the way to go but by giving that old pair of plastic sunglasses a new life with someone else, the brand can prevent it ending up unnecessarily in a landfill.
Not only that but for each purchase Vilo gives away 10% of their profits to A21, helping prevent human trafficking and slavery around the world.
