FRAMES

Acetate - Cellulose acetate is one of the most versatile of all plastic frame materials and the most commonly used. It is obtained from cotton flocks and wood pulp, and it can have a great variety of colours, with either a single colour or multiple colours. Acetate is a very adaptable is available in a wide variety of colour combinations and is highly resistant to chemicals. Another advantage of Acetate is that the frames are easily adaptable when need be and is the material is hypoallergenic.

Polyamide (Nylon) - Trogamid and Grilamid are two types of polyamides that are processed using injection-moulded techniques. Injected frames allow for a more contoured fit on the face and bridge. They are thinner and lighter to wear. This process allows the ability to replicate intricate patterns. Both the materials are highly durable, transparent even when considerably thick, have superior chemical resistance compared to other plastics and are hypoallergenic.

Monel Metal & Titanium - This is the most widely used metal in the high-quality manufacturing of sunglasses. Other metals can include Titanium, Stainless Steel and Flexon. Monel metal is a mixture of any of a broad range of metals such as nickel, copper and iron. This metal keeps strength when shaped and is corrosion and stress-resistant.
