Ray-ban® Titanium
Ultra-light / Highly Resistant / Hypoallergenic
Comfort in more than just design
Ray-ban® spent the last decade studying and testing the application of Titanium, assuring a safe material is a major part of their comfort. Titanium frames are hypoallergenic, nickel-free and corrosion-resistant, making them ideal for sea-handened sailors and sensitive skinned accountants alike. So your face and frames will never be surprised with a bad reaction.
Keep on keeping them on
Ray-ban® Titanium is designed strong but kept light so you can leave them on as long as you like. Along with their clean, minimalist design, Titanium frames are most importantly crafted for long comfort. So you can put them on and soon after forget that you ever did.
The Lighter side of strength
Using Titanium makes the frames strogner while keeping them lighter. In fact, they are 50% lighter than metal or steal frames. They are also just as strong as they are light, designed for long durability to withstand years of opening, closing and unsuspected dropping and squashing. Both when used in it’s pure state or combined with Beta titanium, their strong materials, high mechanic resistance and superior elasticity equiq them to survive it all.
Ray-ban® Tech Carbon Fibre collection
Endless Innovation
More than seventy years after introducing the first pair of Anti-Glare sunglasses to the world’s top pilots. Ray-ban® introduces the Ray-ban® Tech product line of sunglasses and frames. Designed with progressive materials and techniques, the models featured under the Tech name reflect Ray-ban’s celecrated history of leading with inventive style and technology. To lead off the Tech Collection, Ray-ban® introduce the Carbon Fible line and the new Carbon Lite product, tech’s flaship frames and the most advanced Ray-ban glasses to date.
Lighter and stronger
Carbon Fibre reinforced plastic resin sheets are featured in Ray-ban’s Carbon Fibre wrap temples. They consist of 7 different layers of carbon fibres mixed with resin. The sheet is then water-cut to form the shape of our slimmest wrap temples. The resulting frames are light, strong, flexible and highly resistant. The glasses are further enhanced by Motorblock hinged, which include no welding in the front frame for added strength.
All sun lenses withstand the Drop Ball test, in which a 5/8 inch steel ball is dropped onto the lens from a height of 50 inches. From the frames to the lenses, the Carbon Fible’s can hold up to all the drops, squashes and wear you’ll put them through.
The styles and lenses
The Ray-ban® collection comes in a number of different colours and styles, providing a range of fashion as deep as their functions: seven sunglasses with countless combinations of different temples, colour of temples and lenses along with the carbon fibre black original and aluminium grey styles. The lenses are featured in two different versions, polarized and non-polarized, and available in three different colors - green, brown and mirror grey. Non-polarized versions are available, in plstic and crystal, equipped with Ray-ban’s legendary G15 and B15 and mirror lenses. And from now on, Ray-ban® Tech is available also as Frames Collection with 4 different styles and various combinations.
What is Carbon Fibre
Carbon Fire is one of the most advanced performance materials available, made up of extremely thin fibres to give it an icredible strength to weight ratio. Several thousand carbon fibres are twisted together to form a yarn, which may be used alone or combined with plastic resin and molded to form composite materials. Once applied in the most technologically advanced fields, nowadays thanks to a high commitment to innovation and advanced technology Ray-ban® has succeeded in applying this new adcanced material to offer a brand new range of sunglasses and frames that pave the way for further innovation.
