BD8 Bio Plastics has developed 100% biodegradable eyewear material, bags and lenses that can be naturally broken down into carbon, water and biomass.

The material, already used by Hong Kong eyewear designer Okia, is lightweight, durable, crystal clear, hypoallergenic and suitable for every colour, design or pattern, said BD8.

The bag is clear, strong and durable and the sustainable lens “meets optical standards, features high impact resistance and can be used for both clear and sun lenses”, both can decompose in five years in soil, according to the company.
