NEUBAU Presents Their First Full Acetate Collection

The modern world demands forward-thinking – in how we live, consume, produce, and interact with one another. Today and in the future. The question is: how can we do it better? NEUBAU puts this progressive thinking front and center – from lifestyle choices and eyewear design to production in Austria, the brand’s homeland. This Austrian quality label relies on primarily sustainable materials, combining traditional craftsmanship with cutting-edge high-tech manufacturing.

With the launch of the Natural Acetate Collection, NEUBAU continues its mission with focus and consistency. For the first time, the brand presents eight high-quality optical models made entirely of full acetate – crafted from plant-based, biodegradable natural acetate. The frames are made of 68% cotton and wood, and 32% natural plasticizers. Unlike conventional acetate, this sustainable material blend contains no harmful substances and uses only plant-based softeners.

Each of the eight models in the Natural Acetate Collection is available in four colors and defined by clean lines and a purist style. The new line merges sustainable materials with innovative technologies and forward-looking design – and it features some impressive details. Each model includes a screwless titanium hinge with a practical locking and safety mechanism that protects the frame from damage if overstretched – timeless in design, easy to handle. The integrated titanium inlay and V-groove glazing allow for simple adjustments without specialized training or tools for opticians. The new 3D temple tips are distinctly shaped, giving the collection strong brand recognition.

In the Natural Acetate Collection, with its bold and expressive forms, NEUBAU revives the energy of the 1980s. These models blend timeless vintage aesthetics with modern sophistication – a stylish statement that bridges past and present with a progressive edge. Count us as fans.
