Lens Technology And Coating

Nearly every complaint about a goggle is a lens complaint: it fogged, it scratched, the tint was wrong, the mirror flaked. Lens moulding and coating happen on our own lines, which is why we can answer for them.

Stage By Stage

What Happens And What Goes Wrong Elsewhere

Each stage below names the problem first, then what we do about it.

Material

Buyers are offered acrylic lenses at a polycarbonate price and cannot tell them apart on a photo.

Impact-rated products use polycarbonate, which is the material the impact standards are written around. The material is stated on every product page.

Moulding

Optical distortion in a cheap lens causes eye strain that users cannot describe but do notice.

Lens blanks are moulded in-house so geometry is controlled rather than bought in as a commodity.

Anti-Fog

Wipe-on anti-fog lasts one cleaning cycle and then the goggle fogs again.

Anti-fog is applied as a lens treatment during production. Dual-layer designs place a permanent anti-fog face on the inner lens.

Hard Coating

An uncoated lens scratches within days in a workshop or a pocket.

Hard coating for scratch resistance is applied in our own coating line.

Mirror And Tint

Mirror coating flakes and tint drifts between production runs.

Coating runs in-house against the approved sample as reference, which is what keeps a repeat order matching the first.

Inspection

Coating faults found by the customer are the most expensive kind.

Coating adhesion and clarity are checked before assembly, and 100% inspection runs during production.

Lens Technology And Coating Questions

Is the anti-fog permanent

On dual-layer lens designs the anti-fog is on the inner lens face as a treatment rather than a wipe-on, so it does not wash off with normal cleaning. Do not rub a wet anti-fog face with a dry cloth.

What UV protection do the lenses give

Products in the range are specified with 100% UV protection up to 400nm. The exact statement is on each product page.

Can you match a lens tint we already sell

Send us the lens or the goggle you are matching to and we will work from the physical reference rather than a colour name.

Do you offer photochromic lenses

Yes. Photochromic lenses that darken with ultraviolet intensity are in the cycling and sunglasses range.
