These include many prestigious awards such as the Green Product Award, for which ROLF is also nominated in 2022, the SEAL Business Sustainability Award and the New York Product Design Award.

Nomination

We are proud to announce that one of our children’s glasses has been nominated for the Silmo d’Or 2022. Now we have to keep our fingers crossed, we will tell you if it worked out!

These children’s glasses are light as a feather, extremely robust, without screws and perfectly adjustable. In addition, vegetable, are sustainable and produced in a single place. Glasses made in Austria.

The new natural material comes from a plant in the miracle tree family and has proven to be extremely versatile. It enables a multitude of new possibilities and, as a material, is particularly convincing due to its durability.

The eyewear hinge proved to be an ideal component. It can be printed simultaneously with the frame using 3D printing technology, meaning that each new pair of glasses can be produced in a single operation, limiting the need for external suppliers. In addition to the high performance of the screwless Flexlock hinge, spectacle wearers benefit from the flexible, natural and nature-friendly properties of the new plant-based material.

A slightly discreet offset at the front of the frame is made visible by a ring. It remains attractive in the background and at the same time gives the glasses a new character. Exciting color combinations create a new variety.

Modern, poppy and also a bit cultish – that’s how we see the new designs in the children’s collection.

Rolf launches glasses with structure

With haptic structures, the Tyrolean eyewear manufacturer ROLF came up with something new again for 2022. As part of their “glasses made of beans” collection, which already wowed the industry in 2021, the creative minds are launching glasses this year that surprise with natural surface structures.

“We wanted to make the sustainability idea, which plays a central role in everything we do, tangible and visible in our designs. With the new technological possibilities, we can say goodbye to the classic smooth eyeglass frame and set accents with discreet structures that turn the everyday object of eyeglasses into something special. The fact that the new models belong to the substance collection and are thus made from the beans of the fast-growing miracle tree is a perfect fit in this case. In this way, the environmentally conscious eyeglass wearer gets plant-based frames with organic patterns as a sophisticated symbol of his appreciation of nature,” summarizes designer Johannes Wacker.

The new surface texture Substance “Honey” – is a tribute to bees. Slightly raised, you can see a honeycomb pattern.

Homage to the bees

The new surface is all about Mother Nature. Dedicated to one of the most important farm animals of all – because bees pollinate about 80% of our crops.
Slightly raised, you can see a honeycomb pattern growing upwards on the surface. An optical charm that only comes into its own in the right light. For the spectacle wearer who is looking for understatement but can also do without. Restrained and yet present – like love at second sight.
