Lens Technology

In-house lens tinting, coating and assembly

Every lens is cut, tinted, coated and quality-checked inside our Wenzhou facility — so your optical performance and color are identical from sample to mass production.

UV400 Protection

UV400 and lens-category requirements are confirmed against the destination market and documented with the approved sample file.

Multi-layer TAC film eliminates glare from water, snow and roads. Ideal for driving, fishing and outdoor sport eyewear.
