Experience the ultimate lens on the market.

Our mineral lenses are made with borosilicate optical glass, from Corning.
A full 20% thinner and lighter, our Borosilicate mineral glass lenses are finer than any other lens.
They provide the best visual acuity you could ever experience.
Every pair of Serengeti mineral lenses is unique:
each Photochromic lens passes through a
Hydrogen-fueled Lehr furnace, which activates the Spectral Control technology – with varying temperatures that determine the proprietary lens hue.
They are also chemically tempered to ensure scratch and impact resistance.
To complete this unrivaled visual experience, an anti-reflective coating is added to the backside of the lens, canceling the scattering light that causes reflective glare.

FRAME MATERIALS AND TECHNOLOGY METAL

Offering the possibility of creating thin and lightweight frames, handcrafted for ultimate comfort and a wide fit range.
Metal frames also have the great advantage of being strong and impact resistance as well as being highly aesthetic by proposing an infinite variety of colors and combinations with other materials.

NYLON TR90

Using only the highest-quality injected
Nylon TR90 for superior durability, these fashionable frames have the added benefit of being exceptionally light, strong, chemically resistant, and extremely flexible and comfortable.

ACETATE

Expertly produced and cured from all-natural cotton, our Cellulose Propionate Acetate is not only handcrafted to be lightweight but can be made into beautiful patterns and brilliant hues. Pliable when heated, it is ideal for custom fitting.


A UNIQUE 3-EN-1 LENS TECHNOLOGY

Serengeti® is a pioneer in the development of photochromic technology. Darkening in bright sunlight and lightening in overcast conditions, Photochromic technology allows your eyes to adapt to any light, anywhere. The result is a view of the world so crystal clear, you’ll notice natural beauty you’ve never seen before. This technology is molecularly infused into every Serengeti lens.
Serengeti’s Polarizing technology suppresses glare, allowing you to enjoy all the depth and beauty the world has to offer. When glare reflects off the road, water, snow or flat areas, parallel light rays can pass through unhindered, while distracting perpendicular light is reflected. This allows you to discover more clarity, while living free from glare and eye fatigue.
Some of our products feature non-polarized lens options, ideal for pilots or professionals with digital instrument panels.

Oakley’s new Kato Sunglasses

Oakley’s new Kato Sunglasses

Built to sit as close to the face as possible, Oakley’s new Kato Sunglasses provide a mask-like feel. The frameless, wrap-around Prizm lens bends around the nose, allowing it to sit closer to the face. An adjustable rake mechanism tilts the lens to the ideal angle for the wearer and joins three different no-slip Unobtainium nose pads to ensure a customized, seamless fit.

Professional cyclist Chris Froome was spotted rocking a pair of previously unseen Oakley sunglasses during the Vuelta an España, a 21-stage Grand Tour race that winds around the Iberian peninsula. The sleek, all-black shades bore Oakley’s signature wraparound design but seemed to lack a frame entirely — and included a unique extension of the one-piece lens over the bridge of the nose.

True to speculation, the Kato is strange — mask-like and completely frameless. Oakley figured out how to get rid of the extra plastic and instead put frame-mimicking points of rigidity right in the lens — notice how the lens gets thicker and flares outward at the forehead, like a frame. Oakley says that building the glasses this way brings the lens closer to the face.

The Kato’s feature set doesn’t stop with the frameless design either. It has a place for rubberized nose pads that is seemingly stuck right onto the back of the lens and comes with three different sizes. Plus, its sidearms rotate, changing the tilt of the glasses to accommodate variations in face shape while maintaining the close fit.

Il riscaldatore ad acqua LG offre prestazioni ecocompatibili ultra efficienti con un design premiato

LO SCALDACQUA LG OFFRE PRESTAZIONI ULTRA EFFICIENTI ED ECOLOGICHE CON UN DESIGN PREMIATO

Il compressore con inverter aumenta le prestazioni di riscaldamento e riduce il consumo di energia, mentre le funzionalità intelligenti offrono una maggiore comodità

SEOUL, dicembre 2020 – LG Electronics (LG) presenterà il suo avanzato scaldacqua a pompa di calore con inverter a risparmio energetico al CES® 2021. Vincitore del CES Innovation Award, il nuovo modello è alimentato dal rinomato DUAL Inverter Compressor di LG, che promuove un riscaldamento dell’acqua rapido ed efficace, garantendo nel contempo consumi elettrici e costi di esercizio inferiori. Inoltre, l’appliance intelligente altamente efficiente e durevole è compatibile con l’app LG ThinQ ™ per un comodo controllo dall’interno o dall’esterno della casa.

Il compressore DUAL Inverter di LG riscalda l’acqua utilizzando il calore di condensazione generato durante il processo di compressione e circolazione del refrigerante. Il risultato è uno scaldabagno che utilizza fino al 74% in meno di energia per funzionare ogni anno rispetto a uno scaldacqua elettrico convenzionale.1 Il nuovo prodotto sarà disponibile nelle versioni con capacità di 200 litri e 270 litri, con straordinarie classi di efficienza energetica A + e A ++, rispettivamente.2 Inoltre, il compressore e il serbatoio dell’acqua altamente durevoli sono coperti da una garanzia di 10 anni. L’efficiente sistema di LG utilizza il calore dell’aria per ridurre ulteriormente il consumo di elettricità, mentre le sue due fonti di calore interne – pompa di calore e riscaldatore – assicurano che gli utenti non dovranno mai rinunciare all’acqua calda anche in periodi di utilizzo intenso.

Lo scaldabagno intelligente a pompa di calore a inverter è abilitato al Wi-Fi, il che gli consente di funzionare perfettamente con l’app ThinQ mobile di LG, disponibile su dispositivi Android e iOS.3 Con l’app, a casa

i proprietari possono gestire e monitorare il sistema da remoto, ricevere promemoria di manutenzione regolari e diagnosticare determinati problemi senza dover chiamare il servizio clienti. Gli utenti possono anche controllare la temperatura dell’acqua in tempo reale e utilizzare la funzione di programmazione per impostare l’ora e la durata del funzionamento.

“Il nuovo scaldacqua a pompa di calore a inverter LG riflette il nostro impegno nell’offrire prodotti ad alte prestazioni che abbiano un minore impatto sulle spese energetiche domestiche e sul pianeta”, ha affermato Lyu Jae-cheol, presidente di LG Electronics Home Appliance & Air Solution Company. “LG continuerà a sviluppare soluzioni rispettose dell’ambiente che rendono la vita quotidiana più confortevole per i consumatori di tutto il mondo”.

Vincitore di tutti i principali premi per il design del prodotto – iF Design, Red Dot, IDEA – questo prodotto ha uno stile elegante e moderno in linea con gli ultimi elettrodomestici premium di LG ed è anche facile da installare. Lo scaldacqua a pompa di calore LG Inverter sarà disponibile nei mercati di tutta Europa e Nord America a partire dal primo trimestre del 2021 e sarà esposto nello stand espositivo virtuale CES 2021 di LG a partire dall’11 gennaio.

# # #

1 Sulla base dei dati di simulazione interna del consumo giornaliero di elettricità in condizioni climatiche medie dell’UE, il consumo annuo di elettricità è stato inferiore del 74% con lo scaldacqua a pompa di calore LG Inverter da 270 litri rispetto a uno scaldacqua elettrico generale di classe C.

2 L’efficienza energetica è stata testata in uno spazio non riscaldato a 15 gradi Celsius secondo EN16147 con profilo di carico L.

3 Compatibilità dell’app LG ThinQ non disponibile in tutti i mercati.
