SOME MATERIAL OPTIONS
ACETATE
Acetate cellulose has organic origins, coming naturally from cotton and wood, and is therefore sustainable and reusable, unlike petroleum-based materials such as plastic. Acetate cellulose, used to make frames, is made by forming layers of plastic into blocks and then cutting out individual parts. These parts are polished and carved, leaving the frame ready to be assembled. What is the advantage of producing glasses with this material? Acetate cellulose is hypoallergenic, made from renewable sources, is light and resistant, which makes this material the best quality on the market.
TR90
It is a thermoplastic material developed with Swiss technology. As it is a plastic derivative, it is lighter, more durable and resistant.
ULTRALIGHT
As we mentioned previously, TR90 is a polymer derived from plastic and one of its main characteristics is its lightness, meaning frames made from this material are among the lightest on the market.
Some people who wear these glasses claim that it doesn't even look like they are wearing visual accessories.
FLEXIBILITY
Resistance is a characteristic of most materials derived from plastic (TR90), or cellulose (acetate), this is because these materials are more flexible, that is, they can be bent or adjusted more easily, without damaging the accessory.
The difference is that TR90 eyeglass frames can be adjusted to any temperature, while acetate frames need to be heated for this procedure.
DURABILITY
As they are a resistant material, TR90 glasses are more durable, as they are more difficult to break. This is also because they are more flexible pieces that allow them to be bent.
COMFORT
Glasses with TR90 material are also more comfortable, because they are lighter and more flexible, molding better to different types of faces, in addition to having a soft touch.
