Product Overview
The Anthracite Wraparound Safety Glasses are a refined solution for professionals who require high-performance eye protection without the bulk of traditional safety goggles. Featuring a sophisticated amber lens, these glasses are specifically designed to enhance contrast and depth perception, making them an excellent choice for environments with varying light conditions. The full-wrap design is not merely for aesthetics; it provides a continuous shield against airborne debris and lateral hazards, ensuring that your vision remains unobstructed and your eyes remain protected throughout the working day.
Key Features
- Full-Wrap Polycarbonate Design: The wraparound geometry provides essential lateral protection, ensuring that debris cannot reach the eyes from the sides, which is a common failing in standard eyewear.
- Amber Tinted Lenses: The amber hue is specifically chosen to improve visual acuity and contrast, particularly beneficial in overcast conditions or indoor environments with flat lighting.
- High-Impact Resistance: Constructed from polycarbonate, these glasses are designed to withstand significant impact, providing peace of mind in high-risk environments.
- Certified Safety Standards: These glasses meet the rigorous EN ISO 16321-1:2022 standards, confirming their suitability for professional industrial use.
Design & Performance
The performance of the PR01 series lies in its material composition. By utilizing high-grade polycarbonate, the glasses remain exceptionally lightweight, which is a critical factor for comfort during extended shifts. A heavy frame often leads to pressure points on the bridge of the nose or behind the ears, but this design distributes its minimal weight evenly.
The anthracite frame offers a professional, modern appearance, while the amber lens serves a functional purpose by filtering out blue light and sharpening focus. This makes them particularly effective for trades that require high levels of precision, such as carpentry or electrical work, where seeing fine details is paramount to safety and quality.
Why No Customisation?
We do not offer customisation on these safety glasses to ensure your absolute safety. These are certified pieces of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), and any modification—such as printing or engraving on the frame or lens—could potentially compromise the structural integrity of the polycarbonate or obscure your peripheral vision. To maintain the validity of the EN ISO 16321-1:2022 certification, the product must remain in its original, manufactured state.
Use Cases
These glasses are versatile enough for a wide range of professional applications. They are highly recommended for carpenters, plumbers, and tree surgeons who work in environments where sawdust or wood chips are prevalent. Additionally, their contrast-enhancing lenses make them a preferred choice for those in the aviation, construction, and mechanical sectors who often move between indoor and outdoor settings.

Practical Advice
When selecting eye protection, consider the compatibility with your other PPE. These wraparound glasses feature a slim temple design, which allows them to fit comfortably alongside ear defenders or under hard hats. If you find yourself working in humid conditions, we recommend pairing these with a suitable anti-fog solution to ensure your enhanced contrast vision remains crystal clear.
Caring for your product
To maintain the optical clarity and safety rating of your glasses, it is essential to clean them correctly. We recommend using a dedicated lens cleaning solution and a soft microfibre cloth. Avoid using paper towels or your shirt sleeve, as these can contain abrasive fibres that will scratch the polycarbonate over time, leading to obscured vision.
When not in use, store your glasses in a protective pouch or case. Leaving them loose in a toolbox or on a dashboard exposes them to grit and extreme temperatures, both of which can degrade the lens coating and weaken the frame's structural integrity. Regularly inspect the lenses for deep scratches; if the vision is significantly impaired or the lens is cracked, the glasses should be replaced immediately to ensure continued protection.
