YOUR EYEWEAR COLLECTION BRIEF

Make your selection specific.

Use model references, listed dimensions and colour photographs to prepare a clear eyewear enquiry. Bring the design direction and commercial requirements together before discussing samples.

Six details that make an enquiry actionable.

01 / COLLECTION

Choose a starting point.

Tell us whether you need optical eyeglass frames, sunglasses or magnetic clip-on eyewear. Include model references, preferred frame shapes and your target market. For an original design, share a sketch or reference and explain which details matter.

02 / MATERIAL & COLOUR

Specify the construction.

Identify Premium Acetate, Mixed Up or Metal, then refer to the material listed for your chosen model. Titanium collections are planned. Send the catalogue colour name and photograph; for a custom colour, include a physical reference or colour standard for discussion.

Compare frame materials ↗
03 / DESIGN DETAILS

Show the detail you want.

Mark the position of a bevel, high-gloss carved detail, bicolor hinge or patterned temple core on a reference image. Describe the desired appearance and which parts may change. These are options to discuss, not features available on every model.

Explore design details ↗
04 / BRANDING & PACKAGING

Make the brand brief clear.

Provide logo artwork, preferred size and placement on the temple, lens or case. Include packaging references, labels and any required markings. Branding method, placement and packaging scope need agreement for the selected frame.

Private-label enquiries ↗
05 / QUANTITY & TIMING

Break down your requirements.

List planned units per model and colour, sample quantities, delivery destination and your target date. Distinguish a sample deadline from the required delivery date. Ask for current stock, minimum order quantities and a project-specific timetable.

Ask about available stock ↗
06 / LENSES & MARKET

Separate frame and lens requirements.

Specify whether you need frames only, demonstration lenses, sun lenses or a matching clip. State any tint, lens performance, labelling or destination-market documentation required. Availability and supporting evidence must be confirmed for the exact product.

Discuss your requirements ↗

Give every shortlisted style a role.

Everyday selection

Compare shapes and sizes that address your target customers and existing assortment. Fit needs sample review, not just a frame-size number.

Signature & colour direction

Identify the silhouette or detail that expresses your brand. Balance familiar colours with accents across the collection instead of choosing each frame in isolation.

A practical addition

Consider a matching sun clip only where it answers a real customer need. Confirm model compatibility and lens specifications.

Explore matching clip-on frames ↗

Compare quotations on the same basis.

Confirm the model, material, construction, quantity, lenses, logo, packaging, trade terms, payment terms, timing and quotation validity. Agree sample approval criteria and the updates needed for your project.

Eyewear manufacturing processes

Explore the main stages used in acetate and metal eyewear construction. Each stage pairs a process description with a quality focus and a supporting image. Images include generated illustrations and supplied process photographs; they are process references, not a Smartreach factory record. The sequence and operations vary by model, material and agreed specification.

PROCESS OVERVIEW

Acetate frame process

Sheet preparation, machining, temple construction and finishing.

  1. 01

    Material preparation

    Acetate sheets are selected and cut into blanks for the front and temples.

    Quality focus

    Colour, pattern direction and the required component thickness are reference points for the selected design.

  2. 02

    CNC machining & shaping

    The front outline, lens openings and grooves are machined to the design.

    Quality focus

    Hand refinement smooths tool transitions; front curvature is formed as required by the frame.

  3. 03

    Temples & core insertion

    Temples are shaped, then held in a fixture while a machine inserts the reinforcing core where specified.

    Quality focus

    Patterned cores, carved contours and decorative inserts depend on the individual construction.

General process illustration. This diagram does not depict a Smartreach factory or certify a production capability. The applicable process is confirmed for your selected project.

Review the sample against an agreed reference.

Frame, finish & movement

Compare the front shape, dimensions, colour, visible surfaces and decorative details. Review alignment and temple opening. Record each requested change by model and colour, with an annotated photograph when useful.

Logo, lenses & packaging

Check artwork, placement, orientation and legibility. Review lenses or clips where included, and check the agreed case, labels and packaging. Appearance alone does not establish lens performance or compliance.

Approval & order readiness

Confirm whether changes need another sample. Before proceeding, agree the final specification, quantity by model and colour, price, payment terms, required documentation, timetable and shipping arrangements in writing.

A practical enquiry checklist.

Model / category · Colour reference · Quantity per colour · Target market · Logo and packaging · Requested design changes · Sample needs · Delivery destination and target date.

Plan your eyewear enquiry

What should I send with an eyewear enquiry?

Include the model numbers, preferred colours, quantities per model and colour, target market and required date. Add your logo artwork or packaging references if branding is part of the project.

How do private label and OEM / ODM projects differ?

A private-label enquiry starts with an existing frame and your branding requirements. An OEM / ODM brief can include changes to colour, dimensions or construction, or an original design direction. The scope and feasibility are reviewed for the selected project.

What needs to be agreed before a sample?

Confirm the selected frame, material, dimensions, colour references, logo placement and any changes. Agree sample costs, timing and the points you will review before proceeding.

Can I order every catalogue model from stock?

Catalogue inclusion does not confirm stock. Send a shortlist and quantities so our team can check current availability, branding options and preparation arrangements.

Which lens or market requirements should I include?

Tell us your destination market and intended lens requirements. Request the applicable specifications and any required supporting documents for the selected product before ordering.

How are minimum quantities and delivery dates set?

Request confirmation for the specific model, colours, quantities and development scope. Sample timing, production arrangements and shipping should be agreed as part of that enquiry.
