A Swedish company has developed high-tech, high-end ski goggles using bioplastics designed specifically for ski wear.
Swedish sports eyewear brand Spektrum has launched a new collection of ski goggles made with its signature plant-based bioplastic. The company is known for its use of plant-based materials and its new line of goggles, dubbed Östra, adds a number of innovative features.
The company’s frames are made using a resin made from corn and castor bean derivatives that are not intended for human consumption. Spektrum uses a unique process that modifies the materials to create polymer pellets that are then injected with colour. This ensures a deep colour throughout all of Spektrum’s frames and the overall process improves durability and scratch resistance.
Biome Technologies plc is a growth oriented, commercially driven technology group. The Group’s primary activity is the development of its fast growing business in bioplastics. The Group comprises two divisions: Biome Bioplastics and Stanelco RF Technologies.
