No form of ocean plastic pollution is more dangerous than discarded fishing nets. Costa has joined forces with Bureo, a company that works with fishermen to prevent discarded nets—a byproduct of the fishing industry—from polluting our oceans and harming marine life. Bureo turns these nets into pellets, the same raw material used for injection molding.
In an effort to 'untangle our oceans,' Costa uses the material to create its special Untangled Collection of top-quality recycled sunglasses and prescription sunglasses. Be a part of this effort when you opt for the sustainably-made frames in this collection.
Costa is taking fishing nets that are at the end of their lives and giving them new ones by recycling them into its latest collection of polarized sunglasses, The Untangled Collection.
The Costa Untangled Collection is an eco-engineered sunglasses line created in partnership with Bureo®, featuring durable frames made from 100% recycled commercial fishing nets reclaimed from ocean coastlines.
Frames made from Bureo’s NetPlus™ recycled nylon are rigorously tested to match the impact resistance, flex tolerance, and saltwater durability of virgin nylon sports frames.
