Recycled Plastic Bottles Sunglasses

At Groovy Sunnies, we believe fashion can be both stylish and sustainable. Our RPET Collection takes discarded plastic bottles and transforms them into trendy sunglasses – turning trash into style with a nod to the planet. Made from 6-9 recycled plastic bottles per pair, every purchase helps reduce waste and support a cleaner, greener future.

6-9 plastic bottles make 1 frame.

Our RPET frames are made from 6–9 recycled plastic bottles per pair, keeping waste out of oceans and giving it a second life. The matte finish adds a smooth, modern touch, while the lightweight, impact-resistant build is perfect for beach days, market strolls, or everyday wear.

FAQs

How are Groovy Sunnies’ recycled plastic sunglasses made?

Our RPET frames start life as discarded plastic bottles. We collect, clean, and process them into high-quality plastic pellets, which are then moulded into lightweight, impact-resistant frames. Each pair uses the equivalent of 6–9 bottles — giving trash a second life in style and keeping waste out of oceans and landfill.

What’s special about the lenses?

Our RPET Collection lenses are polarised to reduce glare, block 100% of UVA/UVB rays, and feature a smooth gradient fade from dark to light — like seeing the world through your favourite Instagram filter. Lightweight, shatter-safe, and scratch-resistant, they’re perfect for both style and comfort.

How durable are RPET sunglasses compared to regular sunnies?

RPET frames are lightweight yet tough. They’re impact-resistant, scratch-resistant, and built to handle the Aussie lifestyle — from the beach to the bush.

Are all Groovy Sunnies handmade?

Not all. Some collections, like our timber and bamboo sunnies, are handcrafted or hand-finished. Our RPET sunglasses are precision-moulded for consistency, but all are designed with care in Australia and made using eco-conscious methods.

What’s included when I buy a pair from the RPET Collection?

A super-practical squeeze-top vegan leather case (perfect for keeping sand out at the beach), a high-quality microfiber pouch for extra protection, and a soft microfiber cleaning cloth to keep your lenses looking fresh.
