Thursday, May 12 2022 | 14 h 32 min | Agreements, News, Press Release

Marcolin and TBL Licensing LLC announce they have extended their licensing agreement for the design, production and worldwide distribution of Timberland® optical frames and sunglasses.

The partnership, originally signed in 2003, has now been early renewed for a further five years until December 2026.

Marcolin embraces the values of the brand, creating eyewear collections that respect its heritage. The range includes responsible styles made by using bio-based materials for a reduced environmental impact. Most of the sunglasses and optical frames contain at least 35% to a maximum of 80% bio-based content and have earned the coveted Earthkeepers™ designation.

Earthkeepers™, started as a collection in 2007, has evolved into an overarching philosophy that serves as a pathfinder for the Timberland® brand, from its commitment to protect and restore the outdoors, to improve social conditions globally, and find ways to make products more responsibly.

As a signal of their long-lasting partnership, Marcolin and Timberland are also teaming up with the web platform Treedom for the planting of trees and forests worldwide. Within this global initiative, Marcolin has committed to plant over 10,000 trees by 2023, in alignment with Timberland’s longstanding tree planting efforts, with 12,000+ planted to date, and counting.
