THERE’S A NEW ACETATE IN TOWN that’s biodegradable and sustainably made, offering superior performance for eyewear brands that want to offer their customers a greener, more socially conscious product. Called BioAcetate S70®, it’s made by the bioplastics experts at Wingram — the Hong Kong-based company dedicated to finding eco-solutions to the increasingly widespread problems of unsustainable plastic pollution. BioAcetate S70 is a product optimized for the eyewear industry. It’s healthy for the earth and offers exceptional performance for high-end eyewear design.

Here are five reasons why BioAcetate S70 is the key to creating superior, ecologically conscious eyewear:

MADE FROM PLANT-BASED MATERIALS

1 Most plastics are designed to be single-use and end up in landfills or our environment. This includes the traditional acetate that has long served as the leading component in eyewear. BioAcetate S70 is different from traditional acetates. It’s made from plant-based, renewable resources and is biodegradable according to strict international standards. Furthermore, it’s great for consumers’ health because it is non-toxic and free from the harsh chemicals often seen with traditional plastics.

EXCEPTIONAL PERFORMANCE & OPTIMIZED COST

2 Because of BioAcetate S70’s technical features, such as its Hardness Enhanced CA (HECA) properties, eyewear frames made from the material will be stronger, more durable and suffer less deformity. HECA properties allow for frames to be efficiently and beautifully polished resulting in a better end product for consumers. HECA properties also enable thinner frames to be produced, thus allowing for more sophisticated and flexible designs.

MATERIALS VARIETY FOR DESIGNERS

3 Unlike traditional acetate, which is only available for handmade frames, BioAcetate S70 is available for both injection frames and handmade acetate frames. Both offer a cost effective and eco-friendly alternative to traditional plastic for eyewear brands and consumers who want a more sustainable product.

PROVEN & TESTED ENVIRONMENTAL BENEFITS

4 Wingram is known for innovation and exceptional quality in bioplastics. BioAcetate S70’s environmental claims are tested according to the strictest international standards (testing certifications can be viewed here: bioacetate.com/certifications). And, because companies and brands might have limited experience with the new material, Wingram can provide technical support to help companies navigate all stages of the supply chain, resulting in a smooth transition to the sustainable material.
