Beingbar® products are not only designed to include natural materials because of looks. It is a conscious material choice. By using Fast-growing bamboo and wood, we limit the use of plastics in our products. As we know now, plastic is one of the biggest (and fastest growing) problems in our world today. Although Sunglasses are by no means 'single use', it always makes sense to limit the use of plastics and switch to more sustainable alternatives.

The advantage of using materials like bamboo is that it's a sustainable material choice. Bamboo belongs to the family of Grass (really!) and some bamboo types can grow almost one meter(!) per day.

And there are many other advantages of using materials like this: It is one of the reasons Beingbar® products have their distinct organic look. And the products are very light and comfortable because of it. Great for running and outdoor sports.

Products are shipped in asustainable box that is Consciously Plastic Free certified. This means that the packaging is specifically designed to not contain plastic. This type of packaging is more expensive to produce and certify, but since you throw away the box anyway, there is no use in making it extra pretty, shiny or durable. Limiting useless waste. And what about the logistics you ask? Beingbar® only partner with selected logistic companies that have a proven track record when it comes to sustainability.

Besides this, Beingbar® donate $1 for every purchase to Consciously Plastic Free.org. This start up organization aims to incentivize the Retail and FMCG industry to move away from plastic in their production and packaging. To choose other, conscious material choices. They believe that "The Secret to Saving Our Planet lies in Conscious Production".
