Sustainability
The 1923 Trading Co. creates products and packaging with sustainability in mind. By using eco-friendly and biodegradable materials like wood and recycled cardboard, we can leave the smallest footprint on our Earth as possible.
Minimal plastic and minimal packaging material is always something we strive to be aware of as well. We realize that not all recyclable material actually gets recycled, so using less overall is our goal.
We use Acetate for our non-wood sunglass frames as an alternative to plastic. Acetate is made from biodegradable materials like wood-pulp and unlike plastic, will biodegrade in a landfill environment. Acetate also has hypoallergenic qualities, for those with skin sensitivities.
