CE Certified
Explore our export-ready handcrafted cellulose acetate frames, pure titanium mounts, multi-barrel mechanical hinges, and performance magnetic clip-on optical sunglasses engineered under strict CE MDR (EU) 2017/745 standards.
In wholesale optical manufacturing, achieving true handcrafted status requires an uncompromising balance between CNC dimensional stability and master artisanal pumice tumbling.
Every frame complies with the European Medical Devices Regulation (EU) 2017/745 and EN ISO 12870. We subject all batches to rigorous artificial perspiration resistance, bridge deformation cycles, and nickel-release assays (<0.5 μg/cm²/week) to ensure absolute consumer safety.
Unlike cheap petroleum-derived injection polymers (CP or TR90), our raw cellulose acetate sheets undergo a 90-day oven-drying stabilization cycle. This eliminates plasticizer migration, stabilizes moisture content, and prevents post-assembly rim shrinkage and warpage in changing climates.
Artisan finishing is an irreplaceable step. Machined frame blanks are processed through three distinct tumbling stages using Japanese birchwood chips, beechwood pegs, and graded pumice stone, culminating in high-speed cotton wheel polishing that yields an enduring, deep, high-gloss luster.
Combining the agile manufacturing capability of our Ahmedabad industrial base with world-class engineering, we provide global eyewear distributors with end-to-end reliability.
Since 1985, Rushabh Trading Company has manufactured one material format exclusively: premium acetate optical frames and sunglasses. This multi-decade focus guarantees deep technical expertise across blade geometries, custom tooling, and high-precision core-wire insertion.
We eliminate supply chain blind spots through an exacting Sample First, Scale Second workflow. Full pilot samples with your precise pantoscopic tilt, bridge width, core wire stamping, and pad-printed branding are verified before commercial batch runs.
Our dedicated export department handles complete documentation for North America, the EU, Australia, and the Middle East, including Certificate of Origin, FDA Device Registration (Form 2891), Declaration of Conformity (DoC), and drop-ball impact certification.
Understanding the engineering nuances between handcrafted cellulose sheets and cheap injection-molded plastics is essential for maintaining brand equity and retail margins.
| Evaluation Parameter | Handcrafted Cellulose Acetate | Injection-Molded Plastic (CP / Polycarbonate) | Strategic Advantage for Optical Brands |
|---|---|---|---|
| Raw Material Origin | Renewable cotton linters and wood pulp flakes | Fossil-fuel derived petrochemical resins | Appeals directly to ESG-conscious premium retail markets. |
| Color Saturation | Deep organic hue, layered through 100% of material | Surface spray-coated or bulk single pigment | Resistant to surface scratching; polishable across decades. |
| Heat Adjustability | Softens at 55°C–65°C; perfect temple bending memory | Rigid or melts; prone to snapping under thermal stress | Essential for in-clinic dispensing opticians and custom fits. |
| Mechanical Tenacity | Embedded nickel-silver core wires with 5 or 7-barrel hinges | Molded plastic pins or glue-fastened hinges | Superior hinge endurance; withstands 30,000+ open-close cycles. |
| CE MDR Compliance | High biocompatibility; natural low-allergenic profile | Potential BPA, plasticizer or chemical leaching risk | Smooth EU MDR registration without cytotoxicity failure. |
How visionary optical purchasing directors and global fashion conglomerates are structuring their inventory, sustainability roadmaps, and frame designs for the decade ahead.
Regulatory mandates across the EU are driving brand adoption of certified bio-acetate utilizing eco-plasticizers. Buyers are pivoting to frames with over 68% bio-based carbon content to satisfy consumer sustainability requirements while preserving optical machinability.
The market is rapidly combining ultra-light pure beta-titanium temples with bold 6.0mm–10.0mm milled acetate rim fronts. This architecture provides high structural stability and luxurious physical presence while keeping total frame weight under 18 grams.
Forward-thinking eyewear buyers are actively executing "China+1" sourcing strategies. Leveraging India’s established 40-year manufacturing ecosystem in Ahmedabad delivers cost competitiveness, lower tariff risks, transparent factory communication, and reliable IP protection.
Direct technical and commercial answers addressing common international procurement, customization, tooling, and shipping inquiries.
We provide comprehensive technical documentation files (TDF) satisfying EU 2017/745 Medical Device Regulations (Class I medical device for optical frames), including ISO 12870 laboratory testing records for biocompatibility, bridge deformation, temple endurance, and radiation stability.
For custom ODM/OEM designs, 2D technical drawings and 3D CAD files are finalized within 5-7 business days. Physical counter-samples are delivered within 20-25 days. Bulk industrial production cycles run from 45 to 60 days post-sample approval, contingent on custom acetate sheet casting cycles.
Our raw acetate sheets are sourced from vetted suppliers and strictly controlled by master lot numbers. We verify chromatic values against Master Lab color standards under regulated D65 lighting to prevent batch-to-batch variation across multi-season replenishment orders.
Yes. We adjust bridge geometry, nose pad projection, and pantoscopic tilt specifically for European, Asian, or Universal fit markets. Our CNC tooling accommodates eye size modifications (e.g., 52mm to 56mm) without compromising the overall aesthetic balance of the front silhouette.
