MATERIALS & COMPONENTS

Specify what goes into the frame.

A clear eyewear brief can include more than shape and color. For suitable projects, buyers may ask us to review named material, hinge and sun-lens directions alongside the frame construction, quantity and intended market.

PROJECT INPUTS

Turn a brand preference into a workable specification.

  • Named material or component requests
  • Specification matched to the frame construction
  • Supply and documentation confirmed per project

Start with the requirement

Tell us what the named input needs to achieve: color character, hinge movement, component construction, lens appearance or requested performance. A brand name alone does not define the complete specification.

Match it to the frame

Hinge dimensions, acetate thickness, lens geometry and assembly details must suit the selected design. We review the requested direction together with drawings, reference samples and target dimensions.

Confirm the order scope

Exact brand, product family, color or model reference, documentation, availability, minimum quantities, pricing and timing are confirmed for each project before an order is agreed.

NAMED INPUT DIRECTIONS

Four recognized names buyers may specify.

Each request is reviewed as part of the complete frame specification. The brand name identifies a direction; it does not replace a model, color, dimension or performance requirement.

BUYER QUESTIONS

Questions about named materials and components.

Need an answer for a specific design?
Ask our team ↗

Does every order automatically use these brands?

No. These are named directions that can be discussed when relevant to the project. The exact product, supply route, commercial terms and documentation must be confirmed before ordering.

Can I request a specific hinge, acetate code or lens?

Yes. Send the full reference, photos or technical information together with the frame design and quantity. We will review compatibility and the items that still need confirmation.

Does showing a trademark mean CNL Optics is an authorized distributor?

No. The names and marks identify buyer-requested material or component directions. No authorization, endorsement or universal availability is implied.
