We achieved our aim of reaching net zero CO₂ emissions with offsetting in our eyewear production in September 2022. We are proud to have arrived at this goal via a combination of reduction initiatives, including not only purchasing but also producing our own green electricity.

Achieving net zero

Global warming is currently happening on an unprecedented scale with the main cause being the release of greenhouse gases such as CO₂. We know that the use of fossil fuels in industry contributes to this.
This is why we choose a mix of CO₂-free sustainable sources including solar, wind, hydro, biomass and biogas for all our headquarters and production site’s electricity.

A vision for tomorrow

We are not stopping there though. We continue to introduce new sustainability projects to ensure our eyewear remains visionary. As one of our third-generation owners states: ‘We want to be the forerunners in sustainable innovation, in harmony with environmental protection’.
