Fashionable Italian Safilo Eyewear

The Safilo eyewear company was founded way back in 1934 by Guglielmo Tabacchi when he procured a lenses and frames manufacturing facility in Calalzo di Cadore to produce quality eyewear for the European markets, spearheading Safilo eye wear into a market leader in Italy and Europe. Rapid expansion that followed suit over the next few decades saw new Safilo manufacturing plants being opened to handle the increased volume in production. These included a new plant in Venice put up in 1964 to handle cellulose acetate frames production and the acquisition of the Padua Service Center in 1973. In 1977 onwards, various Safilo overseas offices were opened across Europe. Later on in 1983, foreseeing increased demands for designer eyewear, Safilo obtained licenses to produce eyewear of well-known designer brands. More designer labels were added to the list in the 1990s when names such Gucci, Ralph Lauren, Valentino and Georgio Armani were signed up. Since then this company has enjoyed continuous growth through the acquisitions of companies including distributors of Safilo eye glasses, Smith Sports Optics, Safilens and Outlook Eyewear.

The Safilo range of fashionable eyewear comprises of prescription metal framed, acetate or rimless eyeglasses with durability and quality features incorporated. The Safilo Elasta range of prescription eyewear boasts of the Elasta Flex Hinges which help to increase flexibility to the frame. The Safilo Prestige range on the other hand consists of eyewear designs with rimless frames or metal frames produced with lightweight titanium material. This range of eyeglasses is created with class and style in mind in order to cater to the working adult. The Safilo Library range presents eyeglasses that are both flexible and light weight, suitable for the student and thus is available in multiple colors. Apart from that, Safilo eyewear also produces the Safilo SD range of rimless glasses, each with unique temples and hard resin lenses fitted.
