Coatings - CR Surfacing Laboratories

CR Surfacing offers a range of premium optical lens coatings to protect your eyes as well as your lenses.

Our highest quality Anti-Reflective coatings are Titanium AR Coating and True Blue, which offer maximum SPF and UV protection and also improve your vision. These benefits are due to the ability of AR coating to eliminate reflections from the front and back surfaces of your spectacle lenses. With reflections gone, more light passes through the lenses to optimise visual acuity with fewer distractions (especially at night), and the lenses look nearly invisible — which enhances your appearance by drawing more attention to your eyes and helping you make better eye contact with others.

While Titanium AR and Satin UV coatings are an everyday solution, True Blue coating is recommended for people spending a lot of time on digital devices, as it blocks out harmful blue light emitted from digital screens and artificial light.

TITANIUM AR

Here in Australia, our glasses are constantly put through some tough challenges.

Titanium AR is a first-class anti-reflective coating with an astonishing 99,6% transmittance and an exceptional resistance to high temperatures,
specifically developed for the harsh Australian conditions.

Our Titanium AR Coating is developed to improve vision by reducing glare, eliminate eyestrain by enhanced visual performance, protect your eye health by blocking UV rays, and enhance cosmetic appearance by cancelling out reflections on the lens surface. This coating also helps extend the life of the lenses. The Titanium AR Coating consists of layers specially formulated to create a scratch-resistant, water and dust repellent coat, making the lenses last longer. Titanium AR Coating was developed for the harsh Australian conditions, with extraordinary thermal resistance and virtually invisible bloom, to provide improved visual acuity and comfort. An ideal solution for everyday use, no matter the environment.

At CR Surfacing Laboratories, our coating facility incorporates state-of-the-art equipment, latest technologies and premium quality materials to offer the best performing and most reliable coatings on the market.
