Did you know

that prescription pill bottles are a hard-to-recycle item? Most curbside recycling programs don’t recycle them. That’s where Cocoplum comes in, turning these hard-to-recycle bottles into stylish, sustainable sunglasses. 

Inspired by the idea to turn waste into something beautiful, Cocoplum was born. A closer look at everyday plastic waste, specifically prescription pill bottles, which are used by millions but rarely recycled, led to the realization that these bottles could be transformed into something both fashionable and functional.

Each pair of Cocoplum sunglasses is made from recycled Rx pill bottles, so they help keep single-use plastic out of landfills. The process is sustainable, the materials are thoughtfully sourced, and the result? Sunglasses that are as bold and unique as the people who wear them.

The designs are all about fun, vibrant colors (hello, Peach and Watermelon!) and a commitment to quality. We believe sustainability doesn’t have to mean sacrificing style. Whether you're rocking them poolside, at brunch, or on a sunny afternoon adventure, Cocoplum sunglasses are designed to brighten your day, and the planet.

Join us in creating a sunnier, more sustainable future, one pair of sunglasses at a time.


Hi I'm Claire. I started Cocoplum with the sole purpose of making our planet a cleaner place. Once I learned how much plastic exists in the world and that it isn't going anywhere it just made sense to me to create something from that plastic. So I began brainstorming what to make and where to get the plastic from. Eventually that led me to making sunglasses out of prescription pill bottles! I hope you love the sunglasses as much as I do!
