Sustainability - tell me more!

The word 'sustainable' is overused and can be confusing. So to be clear, this is our version of sustainable.

100% recycled frames
Our frames are made from the plastic of one discarded post -consumer PET bottle. Nothing else is added - no metal, no screws - making them recyclable too.

Ethical manufacturing
We make our frames in Sydney so we can control the manufacturing process to ensure no one nor the planet is harmed. And no cheap labour!

End of life
We take back broken parts to be recycled. Please email us and we’ll give you the free Reply Paid address to send them to.

Less CO2
Because we use only 100% recycled plastic in our frames, we use 70-75% less CO2 in our manufacturing than almost all other brands who use virgin materials (brand new plastic/ bioacetate).

Less waste
Our manufacturing process is zero waste. Every piece of our off-cut plastic finds a new home.

Less energy
Because we've reengineered the frame, we use less energy in our production. We make a frame in 100 seconds instead of the typical 100 hours.

Frames made by the sun
Our manufacturing partner has installed some serious solar panels on the factory roof. We only run our frame making machines in the day to take advantage of this renewable power. Good job the sun always shines in Sydney!

Box, case & cloth
All are made from 100% recycled materials in our certified factories in China (via our local agent in Sydney).

Plastic removal
Through Plastic Bank, we prevent plastic waste from reaching the ocean. The process 100% traceable and certified. Each pair sold removes 0.5kg (equiv. to 25 plastic bottles) from rivers and waterways.

Delivery
We use compostable mailing satchels that you can bury in your garden and we use Australia Post's carbon neutral postal service.

I'm absolutely thrilled with my GoodCitizens sunglasses! The style is sleek and modern, and the comfort is unbeatable. I love that they're eco-friendly and made from recycled materials. The quality is top-notch, and the attention to detail is impressive. I've received countless compliments on my new shades, and I couldn't be happier. If you're looking for stylish, comfortable, and sustainable sunglasses, look no further than GoodCitizens!"

Best purchase

Could not recommend this company highly enough - fast service, great communication, heart warming back story, and most of all, an incredible product - sustainable, recycled, circular, repairable, local - it's got it all. The glasses are light weight, stylish, and they feel really sturdy too. Get around it!

Lightweight and super comfortable

Not only a quick turnaround but very reasonably priced. I’m much happier giving my money to a small business that’s local than a multinational corporation.

Good product, good service, good vibes!

Everything about the experience with Good Citizens tells you they are good to the core. They really are good eggs, selling a better than good product and they back it with the best customer service.

I don’t give 5 stars very often but they deserve it.

Best service EVER

I dropped and stood on my glasses, damaging one the arms. I dropped them back into the store I brought them from in Avalon hoping for a miracle but expecting nothing 😂. Within 24hrs they called saying the owner of the company, personally, had fixed my glasses free of charge. Honestly, you don't get this service anywhere. So good! Super appreciative!!! Amazing glasses.

Great fit. Great lense.

I’ve bought Oakleys for years - I think these lenses are better. I love the personalisation. And love the family ethos.
