How are 3D Glasses Collected at There Park Attractions and Cinemas?

Hello, this is Santek 3D Eyewear.

You might be curious about how the 3D glasses are treated after they are collected from attractions in theme parks and cinemas. When you finish enjoying the attraction, the glasses are usually collected, though occasionally, some places allow you to take them home, especially with paper frames at cinemas and similar venues.

The fate of the 3D glasses used in attractions may vary depending on the facility or region, but generally, they are collected and processed as follows:

Collection for Next Use

At the exit or reception of the attraction, staff or crew members may collect 3D glasses. These glasses can be reused for the same attraction or other 3D movies after proper cleaning and disinfection.

Recycling and Disposal

Some facilities recycle 3D glasses by disassembling and cleaning reusable parts, using them to create new glasses. Otherwise, glasses are disposed of as waste, following environmentally friendly methods at waste disposal facilities. Since the lens and frame materials may differ, they are processed according to local regulations.

Rental or Paid Service

Some attractions or cinemas offer 3D glasses as rental or paid services, requiring passengers to return the glasses after use. Returned glasses are cleaned and provided to the next user. Since the procedures can vary depending on the specific facility or region, it's recommended to check information about the fees, collection, and processing methods of 3D glasses before using attractions or cinemas. As evident from the above, mainly the plastic or resin framed 3D glasses are repeatedly used. Therefore, Santek 3D Eyewear offers lightweight and durable 3D glasses designed to withstand numerous cleanings, available for sale. (Still, when enjoying attractions or returning them, please handle them with care and avoid throwing them...)

・Polarized 3D Eyewear (Foldable)
