IMPACT - WASTE REDUCTION
Solios uses certified recycled steel in their watches. However, getting certified recycled steel is challenging due to fraud in the metal recycling industry.
Solios overcomes this by lab-testing their recycled stainless steel to ensure its authenticity. This guarantees that every Solios watch is made of a rare, sustainable material, reducing waste and the carbon footprint of production.

Crafting the future
At Solios, the focus on craftsmanship is all about creating a timepiece that's as beautiful on the inside as it is on the outside. From the very beginning, Solios vowed to never compromise between innovation, elegance, and sustainability.
With a commitment to creating a sustainable accessory with impeccable design, Solios partners with carefully selected suppliers from around the world. The solar technology and movement are from Japan, while the watch is assembled in Hong Kong. The straps come from Switzerland and the United States.
The packaging is made in Quebec and produced by hand in Montreal. Every piece is carefully examined before final assembly, ensuring the highest level of craftsmanship before being shipped to you.
MATERIALS
Certified Recycled Stainless Steel
Solios recognizes the value of infinitely recyclable materials, including stainless steel. By utilizing only certified recycled stainless steel in their watches, they demonstrate their commitment to reducing the environmental impact of their products.
Silicone Vegan Leather
Solios is proud to offer a truly eco-friendly vegan leather that pushes the boundaries of what's possible. This silicone-based alternative is highly durable and does not contain harmful components such as PU, PVC, or toxic by-products.
RECYCLED PLASTIC
At Solios, they prioritize sustainability by eliminating single-use plastic from their supply chain. The majority of plastic used in Solios watches and straps is entirely recycled.
CORK
Solios chose cork as an ideal solution for affordable watch pillows made from sustainable materials. By avoiding polyester or nylon, which are primarily made from petroleum, Solios demonstrates their commitment to eco-friendliness.
ECO COLORATION
Solios' ionic plating avoids chemical waste spilling into groundwater, reducing the environmental impact of their coloring process. Not only is it environmentally friendly, but it is also 5 to 8 times more durable than traditional coloring.
HANDMADE PACKAGING
Solios' packaging is handmade in Montreal with 100% recycled and recyclable paper sourced from a local Quebec supplier powered by 100% renewable energy. The packaging is FSC certified and has won an award for its innovative and thoughtful design, replacing the classic watch pillow with a cork one.
