Here, you can discover where we find our recycled materials and gather castor seeds to make ECO frames. Walk through our restored fields surrounded by 1.4 million trees, planted with your help. Just make sure that you always travel through Isla ECO with three golden rules in mind: LOOK GOOD, FEEL GOOD, and DO GOOD.

Biobased Workshop
Here at the Biobased Workshop, you can learn all about how our ECO Biobased frames are made. Help us gather up some castor seeds, and then tour our workshop where frames are made from the seeds’ oil, a non-food oil that comprises 63% of the frames’ material. We make ECO Biobased frames colorful and sustainable, so that you LOOK GOOD while you FEEL GOOD! The frames have a functional yet invisible spring hinge, giving them a lightweight, comfortable fit.
Recycled
Arts & Crafts Legend has it that Isla ECO was discovered by the explorer Dame Ivy Brooks when she was forced to land her plane during a hurricane. She loved the island so much that she decided to stay! In fact, some say that her old plane’s materials became some of the first resources reused for our ECO Recycled frames. When you come to our Recycled Arts & Crafts area, you can see how our frames are handcrafted from repurposed stainless steel and plastic materials. All ECO Recycled styles feature great color and texture choices, and they have comfortable mono-block two-teeth hinges. Recycled raw materials make up 95% of our ECO Recycled frames, so you can be sure your frames follow the three golden rules of ECO: LOOK GOOD, DO GOOD, and FEEL GOOD.
One Frame - One Tree ONE FRAME ONE TREE
Here on Isla ECO, we’re proud of our trees; they store carbon and give us lots of oxygen for nice fresh air. When ECO was “born recycled” in 2009, our mission was to plant one tree for every ECO frame sold – but we couldn’t expect how successful our mission would be. With your help, ECO has now planted over 1.4 million trees! As part of our ONE FRAME – ONE TREE pledge, we work with the NGO Trees for the Future to plant trees and teach viable farming techniques. Your ECO frame helps us on the journey to a better, more sustainable world, and demonstrates a commitment to giving back to both the environment and its inhabitants.
