Fundraising Upcycled Glasses
Parley for the Oceans & Corona Collaborate on an Eco-Friendly Project
Kalin Ned — May 18, 2018Marine organization Parley for the Oceans and beer brand Corona embark on a sustainable project that boasts upcycled glasses. The 'Clean Waves' initiative seeks to promote active ecological consciousness through the reuse of plastic from the ocean and its implementation into consumer products. This is yet another sustainable adventure by Parley for the Ocean — an organization which is well-known for its advocacy for eco-friendly materials and innovations within the design and fashion industry.
The upcycled glasses are made in Italy with low-quality types of plastic waste and "new forms of upcycled marine debris." The Parley for the Oceans x Corona collaboration boasts three colorways of its eyewear and a limited edition of 100 each. Additionally, the companies report that for each pair of upcycled glasses sold, they will commit to protecting a new island.
