What are Revant Sunglasses made of?Updated a day ago
Revant frames are made from Arkema Rilsan®, a high-performance material derived from castor oil. This premium material was chosen for its combination of durability, comfort, environmental sustainability, and positive impact on global communities. Here’s what makes it so special:
Built for Performance and Comfort
Our frames are ideal for active lifestyles and sports use, thanks to the outstanding properties of Arkema Rilsan:
Durability & Flexibility: Designed to handle impact and repeated wear, Rilsan offers the toughness and flexibility that athletes and adventurers need.
Lightweight Feel: The material is exceptionally lightweight, making our frames comfortable enough for all-day wear, whether you’re on a trail run or just out for the day.
Weather & Chemical Resistant: Rilsan resists UV rays, chemicals, and extreme temperatures—so your frames stay in top shape no matter where life takes you.
Made with the Planet in Mind
Revant frames don’t just perform well—they’re part of a larger mission toward sustainability:
Bio-Based Origins: Rilsan is derived from renewable castor oil, reducing dependence on fossil fuels and lowering the carbon footprint.
Eco-Friendly Manufacturing: Compared to petroleum-based plastics, the production of Rilsan has a lower environmental impact.
Recyclable: Our frames can be recycled, helping to reduce waste and support a circular economy.
