Introducing Regenesis Materials: A smart way to decarbonize the eyewear and fashion industries

For decades, companies in fashion and eyewear have relied on materials that come with a heavy carbon footprint, driving emissions up and contributing to waste. 

Fashion alone accounts for 4% of the global total of greenhouse-gas emissions (GHG) and is responsible for about 8.3 million tons of plastic leakage each year, roughly 14% of total plastic leakage. In eyewear, acetate has been the industry standard for over 160 years, despite its inefficiencies, from high production waste to petroleum-based ingredients.

That’s why we created Regenesis Materials: to provide companies in the fashion and eyewear industry with a scalable, high-performance alternative to virgin plastics. 

After years of R&D with PANGEA, we've developed advanced materials that help brands reduce emissions, minimize waste, and maintain premium quality, all without disrupting their supply chains. 

Now, we’re excited to introduce Regenesis to the world.

Regenesis Materials launches at MIDO 2025

Regenesis officially launched at MIDO 2025, bringing a new generation of sustainable materials to the eyewear and fashion industries.

Our main goal is to deliver real, market-ready solutions for companies that need to reduce their carbon footprint without sacrificing durability, aesthetics, or cost-efficiency. Regenesis materials are designed to seamlessly integrate into existing supply chains, providing a low-risk, high-impact solution for brands looking to future-proof their business.

At MIDO 2025, we unveiled three breakthrough materials designed for eyewear:

These materials are designed to be:

1-Cost-effective, offering sustainability without added production expenses
2- Carbon-reducing, lowering supply chain emissions without compromising performance 

Decarbonizing eyewear manufacturing with recycled materials: A science-driven approach

Regenesis is built on science and engineering. We’ve developed materials that are made from plastic waste collected and carbon-storing biochar from discarded coconut shells. 

This unique combination not only reduces waste but also captures and locks carbon within the material itself, making it a carbon-negative solution for brands seeking to decarbonize their supply chains.

How it works:

 

✅ We recover high-quality plastic waste from nature and supply chains
✅ It is then engineered it into high-performance materials using our proprietary technology
✅ Delivering cost-competitive, scalable solutions that meet brand requirements

The science behind Regenesis Materials

At the core of Regenesis is a proprietary process that blends post-consumer plastic waste with biochar from discarded coconut shells, effectively storing carbon within the material itself. This approach provides:

• Traceability and transparency, ensuring compliance with sustainability standards

• Circularity, allowing materials to be reclaimed and reused

• Superior durability, matching or exceeding conventional plastics

A smarter fashion and eyewear supply chain starts here!

Regenesis Materials is a strategic solution for companies looking to decarbonize without disrupting their operations. With renewable-powered manufacturing, circular design, and scalable production, we make sustainability an economic advantage.
