Good to know
An anti-UV material, but what is it for? To protect your eyes from an invisible danger... UV rays. UV radiation is always present, in winter or summer, in sunny or even cloudy weather, and it can be harmful to your eyes and their contours. To preserve your vision, the lenses of our sunglasses are made of polycarbonate mixed with an "anti UV" material which protects you from the harmful rays of the sun (UVA and UVB).
Classification of tinted lenses according to the ISO 12312-1 standard: - Category 1: lens with a light tint for reduced sunlight. - Category 2: lens with a medium tint for average sunlight. - Category 3: dark lens for strong sunlight (sea and mountains). Between 82% and 92% of visible light absorbed - Category 4: very dark lens, for exceptionally strong sunlight (high mountains). Between 92% and 97% of visible light absorbed
Our lenses are made of polycarbonate, a material that is highly resistant to impacts but whose major weakness is that they are vulnerable to scratching. Bear in mind that even if your lenses are scratched, the UV protection does not decrease; the mirror effect is purely for aesthetic purposes. The same goes for the colour of our tinted lenses. Whether they are grey, brown or coloured… you can choose your glasses according to your taste and you will still be protected, whatever the colour.
The reduction in our impact also supports the reduction in our material consumption. By reducing the thickness of our lenses, this allows us to use less material and also to make our products lighter while keeping the same features.
To reduce the environmental impact of our glasses, action can also taken on the material used. On the frames of these sunglasses, we have reduced the amount of varnish and paint, and everything is incorporated directly in the mould of the product. This is still not enough and that's why we are working to make these sunglasses 100% eco-designed one day.
Regular hikers will appreciate these lightweight and comfortable sunglasses. The anti-UV non-polarised lenses block out 100% of harmful rays and its wraparound shape offer great protection.
