DALLAS –
Essilor Laboratories of America, Inc. (ELOA) announces the
grand opening of the Crizal® Alizé®/TD2® Technologies
Center at Duffens Optical on December 8, 2007. The new
Center, located in Denver, Colorado, is the Rocky Mountain
Region’s largest capacity anti-reflective lens facility
and offers the most technologically advanced products and
services.
Crizal products are
industry-leading, anti-reflective lenses from Essilor that
reduce glare and protect from scratches, smudges, dust and
dirt. Four products make up the Crizal family: Crizal®,
Crizal Alizé, Crizal Alizé with Clear Guard™ and now
Crizal Sun™ lenses. Crizal Alizé with Clear Guard has
unparalleled durability, superior cleanability and smudge
resistance that provides wearers the clearest vision
possible.
With an unmatched
hydrophobic coating, Crizal Alizé with Clear Guard allows
water and oil to simply roll off, minimizing the need for
cleaning. In addition, it has incorporated the same
technology used in plasma televisions to add an integrated
anti-particulate layer into the AR process. The result is a
superior antireflective lens that stays cleaner, longer than
any other AR coating, is easier to clean, and because of
less cleaning, the lens is less likely to scratch. With the
proprietary Pad Control System™, Crizal lenses are also
the easiest premium AR to edge.
“We are delighted
to add state-of-the-art Crizal manufacturing technology at
Duffens Optical,” said Ron Schlotzhauer, regional ELOA
vice president. “The Center is the region’s largest and
exclusive manufacturer of Crizal Alizé with ClearGuard.
Since 1919, Duffens Optical has focused on the needs of
independent eyecare professionals. We are committed to
providing the best premium products, laboratory lens
processing technologies, and superior service to our
customers and their patients.”
