Product Overview
The Polar Star Safety Glasses represent a sophisticated fusion of modern sporting aesthetics and high-level industrial protection. Designed with a sleek, wrap-around dual lens, these spectacles provide an expansive field of vision while maintaining a contemporary profile that wouldn't look out of place on a weekend cycle. The defining feature is the integrated polarised technology, which is specifically engineered to eliminate glare and reduce eye fatigue, particularly in environments where reflective light is a constant nuisance.
Key Features
- Polarised lenses effectively stop glare and improve contrast levels, which is essential for maintaining visual clarity in bright or high-reflection conditions.
- The wrap-around dual lens design provides comprehensive eye coverage and an unobstructed field of view for improved hazard awareness.
- Contrast colour tips and a soft nose-bridge offer a secure, anti-slip fit, ensuring the spectacles remain in place even during strenuous physical activity.
- High-performance UV protection shields the wearer from harmful rays, making these an ideal choice for outdoor professionals.
Design & Performance
Constructed from high-grade polycarbonate, these safety glasses offer significant impact resistance while remaining exceptionally lightweight. The inclusion of TPR (Thermoplastic Rubber) on the contact points provides a cushioned fit that prevents the irritation often caused by prolonged wear. The smoke-coloured lenses are particularly adept at managing intense light, and the overall design ensures that the glasses sit securely on the face, regardless of the task at hand.
Why No Customisation?
At MyWorkwear, we take your safety seriously, which is why we do not offer customisation on this particular item. Any alteration to safety eyewear, such as printing or engraving, could potentially compromise the structural integrity of the polycarbonate or obscure the wearer's vision. Furthermore, modifying PPE can invalidate its safety certifications, and we would much rather you stay compliant and protected than have a logo on your frames.
Use Cases
These spectacles are an excellent choice for professionals working near water, glass, or other highly reflective surfaces. They are frequently selected by those in the construction, plumbing, and carpentry trades, as well as tree surgeons and aviation specialists who require both physical eye protection and enhanced visual contrast throughout the working day.
Why MyWorkwear
Since 1976, MyWorkwear has been a cornerstone of the UK workwear industry. Based in Telford, our decades of expertise allow us to curate a selection of PPE that meets the highest standards of quality and durability. We understand that your gear needs to work as hard as you do, which is why we only stock products that have proven their worth in real-world conditions.
Practical Advice
To ensure the most effective protection, verify that the nose-bridge is seated comfortably and the side arms are tucked securely behind the ears. These smoke-tinted lenses are specifically designed for bright daylight environments; for indoor or low-light work, we would suggest exploring our clear lens alternatives. When you aren't wearing them, try to avoid the habit of resting them on top of your head, as this can gradually stretch the frames.
Caring for your product
To maintain the clarity and performance of your Polar Star Safety Glasses, proper maintenance is essential. We recommend cleaning the lenses regularly with a dedicated microfibre cloth. While it might be tempting to use a corner of your t-shirt or a paper towel, these can contain coarse fibres that cause micro-scratches, eventually impairing your vision and the effectiveness of the polarised coating.
Avoid using harsh chemical solvents or abrasive cleaning agents, as these can degrade the polycarbonate material over time. A simple rinse with lukewarm water and a drop of mild soap is usually all that is required to remove oils and debris. Always store your spectacles in a protective pouch when they are not in use to prevent accidental damage to the lens surface.
