Specsavers Opts To Use OMS Micro-Tints
February 28, 2005 (PRLEAP.COM) Health News
Specsavers have decided to start using the Micro Tint System in their stores, starting in the Netherlands. Using this high tech lens tinting system will allow Specsavers optical stores to tint and UV protect customers lenses faster and better. Specsavers opticians will be able to tint lenses while the customer’s wait. Opticians in Europe in general do not provide tinting services in their stores and have to send lenses out to a central optical lab. This will provide Specsavers with a unique advantage. The OMS Micro Tint System is the only tinting system that tints in seconds and does not emit toxic fumes. and therefore does not need a special exhaust system to protect the health of employees and customers from ingestion of hot glycol fumes in optical stores.
The original contact was made because the high tech Micro Tint System is not only faster and cleaner in the tinting process than the conventional way of tinting, but also because the chemicals are 100% water based and do not emit toxic fumes.
Conventional lens tinting units are a health hazard. Many government rules prohibit the tinting of optical lenses by way of conventional tinting units and chemicals, because of emitting toxic fumes, without special exhaust systems in a central air- conditioned and heated environment.
