Translucent Smoke Gray Acetate Frame Anti-Warping Core Wire | Custom Men Optical Frame

OA980043 is a cellulose acetate frame aimed at men's optical collections in metal, acetate and moulded material, supplied factory-direct for private label and wholesale programmes.

Overview

The smoke-grey sheet is translucent enough to show the ribbed core wire running through the temple. The frame leaves our line complete, with temples, hinges and nose support already fitted, so it goes to lens assembly rather than to a fitting bench. Buyers in this segment usually take it as a core shape and build the colour card around it.

Fronts and temples are cut and polished from layered cellulose acetate sheet, with a stainless steel core wire running through each temple. Colour, logo, temple marking and packaging are set per purchase order, and the minimum order is 1200 pcs/model. Because every shipment is drawn from the same mould and the same colour masterbatch, a repeat order matches the first one instead of arriving a shade off. The custom men optical frame line runs on the same platform as the rest of our anti-warping core wire output, so a smoke gray acetate frame order and a repeat run stay identical in colour, geometry and lens seat. The translucent smoke gray option and the acetate frame option sit on that same tool set, with one inspection sheet and one MOQ structure behind both.

Key Features

Product Showcase

Photographed on a neutral background so the geometry reads clearly: the front profile, the temple and hinge, the bridge and the material close-up all come from the same production sample.

Specifications

OEM & ODM Customization

Custom work starts from the drawing, not from a colour chart. We confirm the lens curve, the temple length and the logo position first, then build a sample so your team can check the fit on a face rather than on a screen. Once the sample is signed off it becomes the golden piece: colour, geometry and finish are measured against it for every repeat order, which is what keeps a second shipment usable next to the first on the same shelf.

• Frame colour matched to a pantone reference or a physical sample before production.
• Temple logo by print, laser or moulded relief, with artwork approval at sampling.
• Lens supply, fitting and edging arranged in house for prescription programmes.
• Private label packaging: box, pouch, cleaning cloth and barcode label.
• Size grading across age or fit bands from one tool set where the mould allows.
• Repeat orders held against the approved golden sample for colour and geometry.

Manufacturing & Quality Control

Four checkpoints sit between raw material and the carton. Each one has a written limit and a named owner, so a fault is caught at the stage that caused it rather than at the customer’s bench.

Applications

• Men’s optical brands and licensed labels
• Optical chains refreshing a core men’s wall
• Department stores and travel retail
• Distributors supplying independent opticians
• Corporate eyewear and uniform programmes
• Online retailers with a broad size run

This model is listed in our Custom Men Optical Frame range, where the full size and colour offer sits alongside the rest of the line. Buyers who need a second shape for the same programme usually start from that page.

FAQ

What is the minimum order quantity for OA980043?

The MOQ is 1200 pcs/model, and it applies to one colour and one size combination. Mixed colours inside that quantity are possible once the colour card is approved. If you are testing a market, ask about a smaller trial run at quotation stage; we quote it separately rather than promising a number we cannot hold.

How long does sampling take, and what do I need to send?

Sampling is quoted at 7 days from approved artwork and colour reference. Send a pantone code or a physical sample for the colour, vector artwork for the logo, and the lens specification if you want the frame fitted. A stock sample can be sent ahead of the custom sample so your team can judge the fit first.

Can the logo and packaging be customized?

Yes. Logo can be printed, laser marked or moulded into the temple, and packaging can be built to your retail format with your own box, pouch and barcode data. Artwork is approved on a physical sample before production, and the approved piece is kept as the golden sample for the repeat order. Certification documents travel with the shipment.
