Acetate Material for Sturdy and Fashionable Eyewear
Acetate is a plant-based cellulose material used to make premium-quality glasses. It’s a more sustainable alternative to plastic, as it doesn’t harm the environment in the same way. However, the benefits of acetate go far beyond the sustainability factor. Known for its strength and durability, it can withstand stress without losing its shape. Acetate is also lightweight, offering all-day comfort. Its biggest highlight is its superior appearance as it's available in a wide range of colours. It’s also possible to achieve glass-like sheen on acetate frames upon polishing which makes it the right choice for making premium quality glasses.
