Alongside two Red Dot awards, sustainable brand Rolf has been awarded the Green Product Award in 2025 for their 3-D printed frames.
In May 2025, Rolf Spectacles announced that they had won two Red Dot Awards, recognising Product Design and Sustainable Design, in their 3-D printed collection – Wire. These 3-D printed frames are minimal and refined in design, and have a number of particular features – from being completely screwless, the production process has been developed at Rolf so that CO₂ emissions have been minimised. The styling of the frames is recognised as modern, minimal and fresh – furthermore, the sustainable eyewear products are also produced locally in Austria using 100% green electricity.

Adding to this success story in 2025, the company has announced that it also won the Green Product Award for 2025. This is an award that recognises particularly innovative, sustainable products. The winning product was the Rais in the Substance collection. The Rolf frame Rais is characterised by its unusual shape and sustainable production. The natural raw material is processed in powder form and fulfils all technical requirements. It is environmentally friendly, and also durable. Combined with Rolf’s patented Flexlock hinge, which enables a screwless construction, the result is a pair of glasses that are flexible and stable. The focus on local production and a shortened supply chain emphasise the brand’s commitment to environmentally conscious manufacturing.
A sustainable focus in everything ‘Sustainability is not just a trend at Rolf, but a fundamental attitude’, the team said in their statement. In addition to environmentally friendly production, Rolf invested in the renovation of their production facility in 2023. This development will save more than 81 tonnes of CO₂ per year. The company has also focused on ergonomic workstations and sustainable office equipment for the benefit of employees.
