Danish Design and Social Responsibility in Every Stitch
Every OPTIHOOK product is a testament to Danish design and Nordic traditions of simple but convenient style, customized into a unique, fashionable eyewear cord and holders that fit every occasion.
Our products are meticulously handcrafted. We collaborate with local manufacturing workshops dedicated to social projects, aiding the disadvantaged. While the pace may not match conventional production, the employees contribute extensive craftsmanship, assembling our products with dedication and high quality, partial or end-to-end delivery.
So, if there's a slight delay in the distribution to your retail chains or specialized shops, it results from our commitment to a socially responsible production process - and ensuring 100% CO2-neutral production.
Global Materials in High Quality with a Local Heart
Our design and local operational approach harmonize perfectly with our dedicated use of the world's premier resources. We reuse returned products and leftover materials to create new products and craft products from, amongst others, recycled plastic bottles (rPET) to effectively use the resources that keep making sense and fit into the "green lifestyle.
Recognizing that recycling PET doesn't erase the longevity of plastic, we've taken a significant step forward by increasing the request for high-quality rPET yarns used in our Optihook products.
Each time you purchase an OPTIHOOK Flash, it breathes new life into one plastic bottle processed into recycled material.
While most materials are sourced from Europe, a minor fraction is supplied from the USA and China. We're constantly pursuing local or European suppliers delivering enhanced sustainable materials to keep our commitment to maintaining a low carbon footprint and minimizing freight energy consumption.
