The new paint for the eyewear sector: resistant, sustainable and formaldehyde-free

The eyewear sector is a flagship of Made in Italy, recognized worldwide for the high quality of its products. A key element to ensure aesthetics, durability, and sustainability is the paint used in the eyewear industry, which plays a crucial role in creating designer frames and high-end fashion accessories.

Sector Requirements in Eyewear

Paints for the eyewear sector must meet a series of specific requirements that go far beyond mere aesthetics. First, they are essential to guarantee a striking visual impact, offering perfect gloss and a uniform finish that enhances every frame.

Another crucial aspect is adhesion to both metal and plastic materials, ensuring perfect integration with treatments such as galvanization and enameling, where a glossy transparent finish can further enhance the aesthetic and functional quality of the frames, guaranteeing long-lasting durability.

Quality and safety are fundamental in this sector. Paints must be completely free of harmful substances such as formaldehyde and other potentially dangerous components, ensuring consumer safety and compliance with the strictest regulations.

F140FF: The Perfect Paint for Luxury Accessories

An example of excellence in eyewear and luxury fashion accessories is Contecolor’s F140FF paint. This single-component glossy transparent paint stands out for its high brilliance and resistance to scratches and abrasion, ensuring a flawless appearance over time.

Free of formaldehyde, the F140FF is compatible with metal substrates and galvanized metals, allowing direct application without compromising quality. Its performance is certified through rigorous testing: it has passed ISO 12870:2016 for sweat resistance, with no stains or color variations, and the nickel release test (UNI EN 16128:2015), exceeding the minimum requirements.

Additionally, Contecolor promotes a line of sustainable products, and the F140FF paint is a clear example. Free from formaldehyde, a chemical harmful to both the environment and health, this paint offers a sustainable solution without compromising performance. The absence of formaldehyde reduces the environmental impact during production and use, contributing to a more responsible manufacturing process.
