Ray-ban introduces tech: a new collection of carbon fibre sunglasses tradition and innovation are the hallmarks of the brand global leader in eyewear
Berlin (Germany), 10 June 2009
Ray-Ban introduces Carbon Fibre, the first release of the brand new Ray-Ban Tech Collection.
Ray-Ban Tech styles are the result of avant-garde manufacturing techniques leveraging both the unique Ray-Ban’s history and state of the art processes specific to carbon fiber. A patented hyper-technological process is being employed in the development of Ray-Ban Tech together with sophisticated and constantly evolving materials.
Innovation has always been an integral part of Ray-Ban’s DNA: the 1937 patent for the legendary Aviator model first used the term “anti-glare.” These iconic sunglasses were developed specifically to offer pilots highly functional and comfortable shades.
The green anti-reflective lenses, made of mineral glass to filter out infrared and ultraviolet rays, the teardrop shape, designed to ft snugly around the eye socket, and the ultra-lightweight gold-plated alloy frame are details that represent cutting-edge technical innovations, even today.
Carbon fiber is an extraordinarily sturdy yet extremely lightweight material. It has a very fine, threadlike structure and it is used to manufacture a wide range of materials referred to as “composites” because the fibers are combined with a matrix – generally resin – designed to hold these extremely strong fibers together, protect them and maintain the shape of the product.
In the Ray-Ban Tech Carbon Fibre Collection, the wrap-around temples are made of reinforced polyester resin sheets, composed of seven layers, all of which are made of carbon fiber mixed with resin. Each sheet is water-cut in order to suit even the slimmest temples.
The result of this patented process is a frame that is extremely lightweight, sturdy, flexible and exceptionally durable.
The indestructible lightness of Tech, Ray-Ban’s most advanced collection, goes hand in hand with innovative, performance-enhancing features. The P3 (polycarbonate) and P3PLUS
(crystal) lenses guarantee exceptional polarization, with more vivid and high-definition colors. An anti-reflective coating is also applied to eliminate glare and fully protect your eyes from harmful UV rays.
