Dragon’s E.C.O. Googles


Check out Dragon’s E.C.O. (Environmentally Conscious Optics) Google Line! E.C.O. is an initiative to help reduce Dragon’s environmental footprint by exploring different types of sustainable materials and manufacturing methods.

To support this initiative, each E.C.O. sunglass is made form 100% renewable origins such as plant oil instead of petroleum. This means that Mother Nature replenishes the material used at the same rate that it is consumed.

Dragon is recycling old goggles and reusing the polyurethane to make new ones. They’ve also used bamboo for hypoallergenic micro fleece material and reduced chemical resins by using a new innovative gasket welding process in the lens.

Each E.C.O. product includes FSC certified packaging material and comes with 100% organic cotton bags, printed with water-based ink.
