Regulatory Framework & Technical Assurance

CE Certification, ISO 12870 Standards & Decree 98/2021/ND-CP Compliance

Navigating medical device import regulations, customs validation at Cát Lái Port, and consumer safety standards in Vietnam’s optical trade ecosystem.

EU MDR 2017/745 Class I

Optical trade spectacle frames designed for corrective ophthalmic lenses qualify as Class I non-invasive medical devices under European Medical Device Regulation (MDR 2017/745). Complete Technical Construction Files (TCF), Declaration of Conformity (DoC), and Authorized Representative agreements safeguard Vietnamese distributors against cross-border customs impoundment.

ISO 12870:2016 Mechanical Stress

Specimen testing verifies mechanical stability under cyclical endurance: 500 temple opening/closing cycles without hinge loosening, bridge deformation resistance under 5.0 N frontal load, and dimensional tolerance of lens bevel grooves (±0.15mm) to eliminate optical center displacement and frame distortion during automatic edger glazing.

Vietnam Decree 98/2021 Alignment

Under the Vietnamese Ministry of Health (MoH) regulations governed by Decree 98/2021/ND-CP, corrective optical frames require Class A medical device declaration dossiers. Having factory CE documentation, ISO 13485:2016 factory audit trails, and Certificate of Free Sale (CFS) accelerates Vietnamese customs clearance at Cát Lái and Tân Sơn Nhất ports.

Five Generations of Optical Engineering

A Legacy of Eyewear Manufacturing Excellence Since 1879

Founded on 145 years of continuous optical craft, our design house bridges generational optical mastery with cutting-edge robotic CNC machining. Having manufactured prescription eyewear for five generations, our manufacturing standards exceed typical trade export specifications—providing independent optometrists, hospital dispensaries, and regional wholesalers with unmatched mechanical reliability, ergonomic refinement, and commercial margin security.

145+
Years Of Craft

Multibrand Portfolio

Unified account access to our high-fashion, vintage heritage, and technical performance product tiers—spanning artisanal acetates, ultralight screwless 3D-printed frames, and flexible everyday trade chassis.

Tooling & Mold Mastery

In-house tooling workshops operate high-precision 5-axis CNC cutters to produce custom hinge seats, internal wire cores, and pad arm geometries optimized for Southeast Asian facial ergonomics.

B2B Private Labeling

Turnkey OEM/ODM capabilities for optical chains in Vietnam. From laser temple engraving and custom pad printing to localized presentation packaging and CE compliance technical files.

Retail Support & Shows

We provide curated frame boards, boutique display fixtures, and organized trunk shows directly to optometric practices, ensuring retail teams can present our collections with clinical authority.

Localized Technical Adaptation

Engineered for Ho Chi Minh City’s Climate & Demographic Landscape

How our frame engineering directly solves the micro-climatic and craniofacial requirements of consumers in southern Vietnam.

The Ergonomic Asian Fit Geometry (Phù Hợp Khuôn Mặt Á Đông)

Standard European optical chassis often cause slipping, temporal pinching, and lash collision when fitted to Asian cranial profiles. Our specialized export lines for the Vietnamese market integrate a modified 3-point facial fit:

  • Steepened Pantoscopic Angle (8° - 10°): Balances visual axes on progressive power lenses without the lower eyewire touching prominent cheekbones during smiling or talking.
  • Built-Up Acetate Nose Bridges (11mm - 14mm Splay): Reinforced saddle and keyhole bridges offering 4.5mm increased nasal crest clearance, eliminating nasal slippage caused by perspiration.
  • Multi-Axis Titanium Pad Arms: Extended s-shaped gooseneck arms equipped with medical silicone air pads, distributing nasal ridge pressure evenly over 32% more skin surface area.
  • Contoured Temporal Curvature: Curvilinear temple bows accommodating wider bi-zygomatic temple widths without requiring aggressive heat manipulation during dispensary bench alignment.
Precision optical benchwork and craft adjustment

Climatic Resilience: High Heat, Humidity & Urban Motorbike Commuting

Ho Chi Minh City experiences average year-round humidity exceeding 78% and surface temperatures surpassing 38°C. Commuting by motorbike in traffic congestion exposes frames to a harsh cocktail of carbon exhaust, airborne road particulates, UV radiation, and acidic sebum secretions.

Under conventional manufacturing, cheap cellulose propionate or low-grade metal frames degrade rapidly: lacquer peels, acetate whitens, and unplated screws seize. Our trade frames counteract this through:

  • High-Density Multi-Cured Acetate: Aged for 90 days to release residual solvents, eliminating shrinkage, lens buckling, and surface bloom under tropical heat.
  • Multi-Layer PVD & Electrophoretic Coating: Double-sealed micro-layers of titanium nitride and protective polyurethanes, achieving Grade 4 sweat corrosion resilience.
  • Teflon-Coated Stainless Steel Screws: Vibration-resistant screw threads with internal nylon washers that withstand constant motorbike road vibration without backing out.

Market Intelligence & Industry Trends

Ho Chi Minh City Optical Trade Dynamics (2025–2030)

Strategic insights into retail transformation, clinical optometry upgrades, and evolving consumer buying behavior across Saigon's optical districts.

Surge in Urban Pediatric Myopia

Over 50% of school-age children in urban centers like District 1, District 7, and Bình Thạnh suffer from myopia. There is an explosive wholesale demand for durable, shatterproof TR90 and medical-grade PPSU frames capable of accommodating high negative diopter lenses and specialized myopia-control peripheral defocus lenses without excessive thickness.

Shift from Street Stalls to Clinics

Traditional wholesale hubs around District 5 (Trần Hưng Đạo, Hải Thượng Lãn Ông) are transitioning toward specialized optometry chains and medical eye hospital dispensaries (e.g., HCMC Eye Hospital on Bà Huyện Thanh Quan). Institutional buyers now mandate authenticated CE dossiers, verifiable batch traceability, and formal tax invoicing (VAT red invoices).

Ultralight Bio-Polymers & Titanium

Tech workers in Saigon Hi-Tech Park and multinational corporate hubs in District 1 demand frames under 12 grams. Pure Japanese beta-titanium and bio-based acetates derived from sustainable wood pulp and cotton lint are replacing heavy alloy plastics, driven by consumer demand for all-day comfort during prolonged digital screen use.

Procurement & Import FAQs

B2B Purchasing & Logistics Questions for Ho Chi Minh City Optical Buyers

Clear operational guidelines on customs clearance, product testing protocols, minimum order thresholds, and private labeling.

What exact documents are provided to clear optical frames through Cát Lái customs under Vietnam Decree 98?

Every commercial optical export shipment is accompanied by a full customs compliance binder: (1) Commercial Invoice and Packing List specifying exact HS Codes (HS 9003.11 for plastic/acetate frames, HS 9003.19 for metal/titanium frames); (2) Certificate of Origin (Form E or Form AJ/VJ for tariff optimization); (3) Factory Declaration of Conformity to EU MDR 2017/745 Class I; (4) ISO 13485:2016 and ISO 9001:2015 certified quality audit records; and (5) Certificate of Free Sale (CFS). These credentials enable Vietnamese importers to directly submit their Class A medical device notification on the Ministry of Health public portal.

How do your frames withstand the high humidity and skin perspiration of southern Vietnam?

All export frames comply with ISO 12870 synthetic perspiration stress testing. Metal components undergo multi-stage ultrasonic degreasing followed by physical vapor deposition (PVD) vacuum ion plating, sealed with an electrophoretic passivation clear coat. This prevents green copper corrosion, galvanic blistering, and peeling when exposed to human sweat (pH 4.7) and road pollution during motorbike commutes. Acetate models are aged through controlled dehumidification to ensure zero plasticizer leaching or cloudy white oxidation over multi-year retail display cycles.

What are the Minimum Order Quantities (MOQ) for ready stock vs custom private-label OEM orders?

For ready-stock models across our core acetate, metal, and TR90 catalog, we accommodate boutique optical clinics and multi-store chains with a flexible low-tier MOQ of just 12 pieces per model (mixed colorways permitted). For fully customized OEM/ODM projects—including custom pantone acetate lamination, laser brand identification on temple cores, and bespoke packaging—the MOQ is 300 pieces per model (100 pieces per SKU colorway).

What are the lead times for air express vs ocean freight delivery to Ho Chi Minh City?

For urgent replenishment orders, our bonded warehouse utilizes DHL/FedEx Express cargo into Tân Sơn Nhất International Airport (SGN) with an average door-to-door transit time of 3 to 5 business days. For volume bulk container shipments, ocean cargo departing from our coastal export hubs berths at Cát Lái Port or SP-PSA International Terminal within 7 to 10 sailing days, offering substantial cost efficiencies for large optical distributors.

Can independent retail opticians order sample prototypes before placing large seasonal purchase orders?

Yes. We provide sample trunk kits curated for optometry practices and dispensary owners in Ho Chi Minh City. You can evaluate hinge torque, bevel depth, raw material elasticity, and aesthetic color fidelity firsthand. Sample costs are fully credited back toward your commercial opening inventory invoice upon contract finalization.

Are replacement components (temples, nose pads, screw sets) readily available for after-sales support?

We maintain an active component reserve for all active model collections for a minimum of 36 months following production cessation. We provide matching front screws, silicone pad arms, spring hinge mechanisms, and replacement acetate temple tips in organized repair assortments, ensuring your bench opticians can deliver fast post-sale adjustments to patients without rendering frames obsolete.
