Description

Technical Parameters

Men's polarized sunglasses engineered for optical precision, glare reduction, and structural resilience in high-exposure environments. Built for commercial brands, outdoor distributors, and private-label programs, frames and lenses undergo strict photometric testing to meet global sunglasses standards (EN ISO 12312-1, ANSI Z80.3, AS/NZS 1067). Available for full OEM/ODM customization, ranging from bespoke frame geometry to custom laser-etched lens branding and specialized coatings.

 

Key Features

 

High-Efficiency Polarization: Lenses integrate a high-density PVA (Polyvinyl Alcohol) polarizing film that blocks horizontal light waves, eliminating blinding glare from water, asphalt, and snow.

 

Full UV400 Spectrum Defense: Blocks 100% of UVA, UVB, and UVC rays up to 400 nanometers, preventing long-term retinal and corneal photokeratitis.

 

Decentered Optical Lenses: Precision-molded taper corrections eliminate prismatic distortion, ensuring true spatial positioning and eliminating user fatigue during extended wear.

 

Mechanical Frame Integrity: Engineered with stress-resistant polymers and reinforced barrel hinges designed to withstand high-tensile flexural fatigue testing.

 

Hydrophobic & Oleophobic Coatings: Exterior lens treatments repel seawater, skin oils, dust, and fingerprint smudges, maintaining surface clarity in marine and industrial environments.

 

Lens Options

 

Selecting the correct lens material and tint configuration dictates the end-market performance of private-label sunglasses.

 

TAC (Tri-Acetate Cellulose): Cost-effective solution featuring a multi-layer composite structure. Ideal for promotional lines and casual outdoor use. Thickness: 1.1mm standard.

 

Polycarbonate (PC): High impact resistance exceeding FDA drop-ball testing standards. Recommended for active sports, tactical applications, and high-impact work environments.

 

Nylon (PA): Premium optical grade combining the superior Abbe value of glass with extreme lightweight flexibility and stress-crack resistance. Preferred for high-end optical brands.

Lens Tint

Visual Light Transmission (VLT)

Recommended Application

Smoke / Gray

8% - 15% (Category 3)

Bright, direct sunlight; neutral color perception; driving and marine use.

Brown / Amber

12% - 18% (Category 3)

Variable light conditions; enhances contrast and depth perception; golf and fishing.

Copper / Rose

15% - 20% (Category 2/3)

High contrast against green and blue backgrounds; tactical and trail running.

Mirror Coated

Varies by base tint

High-glare reduction (snow, water, desert); reflects infrared radiation.

 

Frame Specifications

 

TR90 (Grilamid): Swiss-grade thermoplastic material weighing roughly 35% less than standard acetate. Offers high elastic memory, returning to its original shape after bending under pressure.

 

Injected Polycarbonate: Rigid, cost-effective thermoplastic suited for injection-molded complex geometries and high-volume runs.

 

Stainless Steel & Monel Alloys: Corrosion-resistant metal wire frames featuring adjustable silicone nose pads for structured, professional aesthetics.

 

Hinge Architecture: Standard 3-barrel, 5-barrel stainless steel mechanical hinges or integrated spring hinges offering 15-degree outward extension to fit varied cranial widths.

 

Technical Specifications

 

Standard Frame Width

142mm (Customizable per mold design)

Lens Width / Height

58mm / 43mm (Standard rectangular/wrap profile)

Bridge Distance

17mm

Temple Length

135mm

Polarization Efficiency

>= 99% extinction rate

Optical Class

Class 1 (Zero refractive power tolerance for continuous wear)

Drop Ball Impact Resistance

Survives a 16mm steel ball dropped from 1.27 meters (FDA 21 CFR 801.410 compliant)

 

Design & Comfort

 

Ergonomic Wrap-Around Geometry: 8-base curvature frames wrap tightly around the orbital bone to block peripheral light leak and wind turbulence.

 

Dual-Injected Rubber Temple Grips: Hydrophilic Megol elastomer inserts on temples and nose bridges increase friction when exposed to perspiration.

 

Weight Distribution: Center of gravity balanced across the bridge and ears, maintaining total frame weight under 30 grams for TR90 variants to eliminate pressure points.

 

Applications

 

Marine & Offshore: Eliminates subsurface water glare for commercial fishing, sailing, and coast guard operations.

 

Outdoor & Action Sports: Secures vision stability during mountain biking, skiing, and mountaineering where high-altitude UV radiation is intense.

 

Automotive & Transport: Reduces windshield dashboard reflections and blinding wet-road glare for long-haul drivers.

 

Industrial Outdoor Work: Provides certified eye protection against UV exposure and physical debris for construction and utility crews.

 

Customization & OEM/ODM

 

Frame Customization: Pantone-matched frame injection colors, custom gloss/matte surface finish, and dual-color injection molding.

 

Branding Integration: Laser engraving on lenses, custom metal logo plaques embedded into temples, and pad-printed inner temple specifications.

 

Packaging Solutions: Custom rigid magnetic boxes, branded microfiber pouches, EVA hard zipper cases, and serialized barcode labeling.

 

Prototyping Cycle: 3D CAD modeling and Stereolithography (SLA) rapid prototyping available within 7 business days prior to hard-tool aluminum mold fabrication.

 

Manufacturing & Quality Control

 

Injection Molding & Assembly: Production utilizes automated multi-cavity injection machines (FANUC and Engel) with closed-loop thermal control to eliminate internal frame warp and shrinkage variances.

 

Polarization Alignment Testing: Every batch undergoes spectrophotometer verification to confirm polarizing axis alignment within a +/- 0.5 degree tolerance.

 

Stress-Crack Testing: Frames undergo thermal cycling (-20°C to +60°C) and solvent-resistance exposure tests to verify polymer stability.

 

Surface Coating Inspection: Salt spray corrosion testing (ASTM B117) performed on metal components and mirrored lens coatings to guarantee minimum 48-hour corrosion resistance thresholds.

 

Packaging & Shipping

 

Bulk Industrial Packing: 12 pieces per inner white box, 300 pieces per master export carton. Master cartons reinforced with 5-layer corrugated cardboard and moisture-barrier polyethylene liners.

 

Logistics Support: FOB, CIF, or DDP shipping terms via maritime container freight (FCL/LCL) or expedited air freight. Standard customs commodity HS codes provided for seamless border clearance.

 

FAQ

 

Q: What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ) for custom OEM orders?

A: The standard MOQ is 300 pieces per model, split across up to 3 colorways. For bespoke frame tooling designed from scratch, the minimum production volume is 1,200 pieces per mold.

Q: How do you verify the polarization efficiency during production?

A: Every production run is tested using automated polarization testers that measure light extinction rates. Lenses failing to meet the >= 99% threshold are rejected prior to assembly.

Q: Can you supply samples with our brand logo before bulk manufacturing?

A: Yes. Physical pre-production samples (PPS) with custom laser-etched logos and frame colors can be manufactured and shipped via DHL or FedEx within 10 to 14 days of artwork approval.

Q: What international optical and safety standards do your sunglasses meet?

A: Manufacturing processes and materials comply with EN ISO 12312-1 (Europe), ANSI Z80.3 (United States), and AS/NZS 1067 (Australia/New Zealand). Test reports from accredited third-party labs like SGS or Intertek are available upon request.

Q: What is the standard lead time for volume orders?

A: Standard production runs require 30 to 40 days following sample approval and receipt of the deposit. Rush orders can be negotiated depending on current factory capacity.

Q: What is the warranty policy for manufacturing defects?

A: A 12-month commercial warranty covers structural failures, hinge breakage, and delamination of polarizing layers resulting from manufacturing defects. Defective units are replaced in subsequent shipments.
