Abstract

The conventional materials used in goggle production, such as plastics and synthetic fibers, pose significant environmental concerns due to their non-biodegradable nature and substantial carbon footprint. These materials contribute to pollution, waste accumulation, and the depletion of natural resources. Simultaneously, there is a growing consumer demand for more sustainable and comfortable eyewear options. This study aims to address these issues by designing and manufacturing goggles using bamboo fiber. Bamboo fiber, a renewable and eco-friendly material, offers an alternative that enhances user comfort while significantly reducing environmental impact. By leveraging the natural properties of bamboo fiber, this research seeks to produce sustainable and ergonomically superior goggles. The goal is to meet the increasing consumer demand for environmentally responsible products and to establish a new benchmark for comfort and sustainability in the eyewear industry. The findings suggest that bamboo fiber goggles can revolutionize the market, providing a viable solution to the environmental challenges posed by traditional materials.
