Based in Barcelona, Spain, the company's mission is to combine eco-friendly materials with contemporary design, offering a range of stylish eyewear that appeals to environmentally conscious consumers. One of the brand's standout features is its use of recycled and upcycled materials, such as reclaimed ocean plastic and discarded fishing nets, to craft their frames. By repurposing these materials, Sea2See actively contributes to reducing plastic pollution in oceans and landfills.

Produced in Italy in Sea2see’s signature material created from 100% upcycled marine plastic, the seven designs offer protective, wraparound constructions which are ultra- resistant and lightweight. Designed to suit the sports enthusiast who loves nature and is committed to protecting it for the future, the Sea2see “seastainable” models come in a range of sizes with adjustable temples that will provide a snug and comfortable fit around the head.
