How to Find the Perfect Optical Lens Manufacturers for your Needs

If you need to find a good optical lens manufacturer for a new lens order, there are a few things you should look for when checking out if a company is reputable.

 

Longevity -- One of the first signs a company is reputable is longevity.

 

How long has the optical lens manufacturer you are considering been in business? If you can find a company that has been manufacturing lenses for several decades, chances are they are one of the most reputable and well-respected in the business.

 

Facilities and testing labs -- Find out about a company's manufacturing facilities and testing labs.

 

Are they both built to international requirements? Is the company ISO:9001 certified? Do they test in a clean lab, and is all their manufacturing done on the latest high-tech equipment?

 

Is their staff highly-qualified? -- No matter where you are going to order from, whether the company is in America or Asia, be sure their staff is highly-qualified.

 

Find out where their staff is trained, what type of qualifications is mandatory if working for the company and if they require them to participate in ongoing training.

 

A company that has highly-qualified staff is a company that wants to make sure everything they manufacture is to the highest quality possible.

 

Price versus quality -- There is an expectation nowadays, especially in America, that high quality should always mean a similar high price.

 

This is not remotely true, as it is possible to find optical lens manufacturers that manufacture their lenses to the highest quality, yet manage to do so at a fair price to you.

 

Look at companies based in Asia, and in particular in China, and you may be surprised at just how low of a price you can get your optical lenses.
