Biodegradable Wide Acetate Optical Frame with Pattern Temple Pin






A wide acetate optical frame with a pattern temple pin, cut from biodegradable acetate sheet in 54-21-145 and offered at 300 pcs for brands building a sustainable line.
Overview
This is a wide acetate optical frame in 54-21-145, cut from biodegradable acetate sheet rather than moulded, with a decorative pin set into the temple as the signature detail. The front is deliberately wide across the brow, which gives a strong horizontal line on the face and plenty of room for a lens, while the acetate is polished in stages so the edge reads as solid material rather than a coating.
The pattern temple pin is the part that cannot be copied from a photograph: it is a separate element seated into the temple, so its position, depth and finish are set on the sample and repeated on the line. Because the frame is cut from sheet, a colourway is a material order rather than a moulding run, which is what makes a 300 pcs minimum workable for a small brand or a capsule collection.
The programme is run by Wenzhou Readsun Optical Co., Ltd., a professional eyewear supplier that designs and produces high-end optical frames in TR90, acetate and metal. The company opened its Alibaba store in 2007 for wholesale business and has since won recognition from millions of customers worldwide, with more than 1,000 different models held in stock and new styles added every week.
Built as a biodegradable wide acetate front, the wide acetate optical shape carries the pattern temple pin as its signature, and every acetate optical frame in the range is cut from the same sheet stock, so a frame with pattern options can be sampled without a new mould.
Key Features
Biodegradable Acetate Sheet
The frame is cut from biodegradable acetate sheet, so the material story is a sourcing fact rather than a marketing line. Sheet stock also gives a deeper colour than a thin moulding, because the colour runs through the material and does not sit in a surface layer that can wear through at the temple.
Wide Brow Geometry
The front is wide across the brow with a generous eye, which reads as a fashion frame and gives the wearer a broad field of view. Wide frames fail when the rim is too thin at the corner, so the material is left thicker there and the lens groove is cut after polishing, not before.
Pattern Temple Pin
The pin is seated into the temple and finished flush with the surface, so it reads as an inlay rather than an applied badge. Its position is set from the sample and checked against a template on the line, because a pin that drifts by a millimetre looks wrong on a display wall.
300 pcs Custom Programme
A 300 pcs minimum is viable because the frame is cut rather than moulded. Colour, pin finish, logo and packaging are specified together, and because the front shares its hinge and temple with the rest of the acetate line, a second colourway does not require a second approval process.
Product Showcase
The photographs below show this wide acetate frame from the front, in three-quarter view and at the temple pin, which is the detail that has to be seen close up before a buyer commits to a colourway.

OEM & ODM Customization
Customisation here is a material and finishing conversation. The front geometry stays, and the order is defined by sheet colour, pin finish and branding, all of which are quoted from a physical sample rather than a digital render. The engineering team builds the packaging around the frame, so a capsule of three colourways can arrive as one shelf-ready story.
- Sheet colour selected from the acetate range or matched to a submitted chip, with the pin finish agreed at the same time.
- Pattern temple pin repositioned or restyled within the temple, subject to a sample approval before production.
- Logo on the temple or the demo lens, kept clear of the pin so the two details do not compete.
- Recycled or FSC-certified packaging available on request, with the dieline proofed before printing.
- Your inquiry is answered within 12 hours by a trained sales engineer who can talk through material, tooling and packing online rather than forwarding a price list.
- Every shipment is guaranteed: if a problem appears within the warranty period, other than damage to vulnerable parts or man-made damage, replacement spare parts are sent for fitting.
- The engineering team designs personalised frames and builds the packaging solution around your listing, with dielines and colour proofs reviewed before printing.
Manufacturing & Quality Control
Acetate is judged on three things a buyer can see: colour depth, polish quality and joint alignment. The sheet is checked for internal stress before cutting, the frame is tumbled in graduated media rather than belt-polished, and the pin is checked for flush seating under a lamp before the frame is cleaned and packed.
1. Incoming Material Inspection
Acetate sheet is checked for colour batch, thickness, clarity and internal stress before cutting, and every colourway is compared with the approved master chip under daylight. Metal cores, hinges, rivets and demo lenses are inspected in the same pass so that a frame cannot be built from mismatched lots.
2. Cutting, Tumbling and Assembly
Fronts and temples are cut, barrel-polished and tumbled in graduated media until the edge is round and the surface is clear. The lens groove is cut to a constant section, hinges are riveted at a set depth, and the frame is aligned on the bench so the temples fold flat and the front sits level on the wearer.
3. Polishing and Optical Check
The frame is polished in stages, cleaned and inspected for tool marks, cloudiness and colour variation between front and temples. Lenses are edged and seated without stress, then read for power and centration; the finished frame is gauged for bridge width, temple length and face form before it is approved for packing.
4. Packing and Outgoing Sampling
Each pair is wiped, sleeved and packed with the case or pouch specified for the order. The outgoing AQL sample is checked for hinge function, polish quality, logo position and colour consistency, and the carton is verified for barcode, quantity and shipping marks before it is sealed for loading.
Applications
- Sustainable and eco-positioned eyewear labels building a first collection.
- Boutique optical counters that sell material and finish rather than brand.
- Capsule collections where a 300 pcs minimum per colour is the right scale.
- Duty-free and concept stores looking for a distinctive temple detail.
- Private-label brands that want a biodegradable story with evidence behind it.
- Online stores that photograph the temple pin as the hero detail.
This frame is part of our custom optical frame range, and the material sourcing is covered under sustainable frames.
FAQ
What is the minimum order?
300 pcs per model. Because the frame is cut from sheet, colours can be split inside that quantity, and the exact split is confirmed at quotation stage together with the pin finish.
Is the acetate genuinely biodegradable?
The frame is specified as biodegradable acetate sheet, and the material certificate is supplied with the order documentation. The claim is made on the strength of that certificate rather than as a general statement about acetate.
Can the temple pin be changed?
Yes. The pin can be repositioned or restyled within the temple, and the new position is set on a sample before production. A completely new pin shape is a tooling item and is quoted separately.
