As climate change becomes more and more of a concern, we’ve all become more conscious of the environmental impact of our choices. It’s no different when it comes to eyewear, and our push as a company towards more sustainable practices has been matched by our customers interest in frames, lenses and accessories that not only make them look good on the outside but feel good on the inside as well. At Thomas and Saunders, we’re committed to greater sustainability and have been expanding our collection of eco-friendly eyewear, combining innovation and style with a commitment to environmental responsibility.

Eco-Friendly Eyewear

Eco-friendly eyewear is transforming the industry, with a number of manufacturers moving towards more sustainable materials and production processes. More brands than ever before are prioritising recycled plastics, biodegradable substances, and renewable resources. In the UK, the demand for sustainable eyewear has grown quickly. Brands dedicated to sustainability, like Planet Pop, have been gaining popularity and customers are actively seeking out and supporting brands that offer greener alternatives.

Planet Pop?

Planet Pop has been making waves since it started in 2020. The company produces stylish eyewear for kids using BPA-free bio-plastic derived from plants, significantly reducing the use of fossil fuels in its production processes. The company’s commitment to eco-friendly practices extends to their packaging, which is also sustainably sourced.

Thomas and Saunders: Our Commitment to Sustainability

At Thomas and Saunders, we also believe in taking our responsibility towards the environment seriously. We are excited to incorporate Planet Pop’s eco-friendly eyewear into our product range, and to offer our customers more sustainable choices. Our efforts, however, don’t stop there:

  • Expanding Eco-Friendly Options: We are continually seeking out and introducing new sustainable brands to our lineup.
  • Green Business Practices: From reducing waste to opting for sustainable packaging, we are committed to minimising, as much as possible, our environmental impact.
  • Supporting Our Customers: We help promote sustainability, helping our customers make informed decisions.

By embracing these practices, Thomas and Saunders is making significant strides towards a more sustainable future. Join us in making a positive impact on the planet, one pair of glasses at a time.
