Ground-Breaking: The Clear Sky Collection
The iF Design Award panel was captivated by the Clear Sky collection's fusion of cutting-edge technology and timeless aesthetics. At the heart of Silhouette’s innovation lies the first-ever 'bio-circular' material: SPX® Green+, the next generation of SPX®, a material that has already been used in previous Silhouette collections. Made from 100 % renewable energy, using organic waste from industries like agriculture, forestry and aquaculture, it reduces carbon emissions by 50 % compared to the traditional production process. The result? A high-performance frame of exquisite comfort, durability and elegance. Style with a clear conscience – made in Austria.

Inspired by the vibrant and translucent hues of thriving Mediterranean ecosystems, the Clear Sky collection aims to capture the essence of natural diversity. This groundbreaking design family embodies the unstoppable progress of a society moving toward greener technologies, offering a sustainable solution that celebrates nature’s beauty, one frame at a time. For the World We Want to See.
