REACTIV TECHNOLOGY
REACTIV lenses are the result of many years of research and development carried out by our in-house teams.
To offer you the best protection solutions and ensure incomparable visual comfort, we have developed one of the largest ranges of specialized lenses on the market: photochromic lenses.
A HIGH REACTIVITY SCREEN
REACTIV photochromic lenses accompany you on all your adventures, no matter your playground. Thanks to the SHR (Super High Reactiv) process, they instantly adapt to light conditions and guarantee you unmatched reactivity to boost your performance. This effect is enhanced by the NTS (Non Temperature Sensitive) process, which allows them to darken or lighten more easily, whatever the temperature.
OPTICAL QUALITY THAT STANDS THE TEST OF TIME
REACTIV photochromic lenses are screens of superior quality, combining the qualities of organic glass and the unique manufacturing expertise of mineral glass. Lasting transparency, strength, lightness, resistance to shocks and solvents—these are just some of the many advantages of these lenses made from Trivex and cast at moderate temperatures. Thanks to them, you experience pure and intense emotions that only extreme environments can offer!
SURPRISING LIGHTNESS
Lighter than classic mineral or organic lenses, REACTIV lenses help reduce the weight of your sun protection.
These screens can thus be fitted to the lightest frames in our range while guaranteeing you a balanced and comfortable result.
Thanks to them, you go from boldness to achievement in the blink of an eye, without even realizing it.
A TREATMENT FOR LIFE
Did you know that the photochromy of your REACTIV lenses is unalterable?
Cast directly into the material during the manufacturing of the glass, the photochromic pigments are integrated into the material, unlike a filter applied in several layers on the surface.
And even in case of scratches, we guarantee the photochromy of your lenses for life!
LENSES FOR EVERY ACTIVITY
With REACTIV photochromic lenses, switch from one activity to another without ever compromising your level of protection. These screens, available in three categories, equip both Julbo sunglasses, goggles, and ski helmets to help you take on the wildest challenges. In addition, you can also enhance their effectiveness thanks to our essential treatments applied inside and/or outside your lenses.
ANTI-FOG TREATMENT
Prevents condensation and ensures maximum lens longevity
OLEOPHOBIC
Prevents dirt, makes cleaning easier, and helps water slide off the lenses
HYDROPHOBIC
Activates water sliding on the lenses and significantly improves visibility
FLASH TREATMENT
Enhances visible light filtration with a mirror effect on the lenses
WITHOUT ANTI-REFLECTIVE TREATMENT
WITH ANTI-REFLECTIVE TREATMENT
Improves overall optical comfort and prevents glare
NONEXISTENT GLARE
The polarization of our REACTIV lenses offers you visual comfort you won’t be able to do without, thanks to the elimination of the glare effect on reflective surfaces such as roads, water, or snow. From sparkling glaciers to roaring oceans, nothing can stop you anymore.
Our two types of polarization:
WITHOUT POLARIZATION
GLARE CONTROL
FOR THE LOVE OF HIGH MOUNTAINS
The low-polarization Glare Control screen eliminates up to 55% of reflections. While the dazzling effect of glare disappears, the reflections from ice patches remain visible, and their red tint further enhances contrasts. With them, you improve your reading of the terrain and go from reflection to action in seconds.
HIGH POLARIZATION
PRECISION WITHOUT COMPROMISE
By blocking the majority of light reflections, the high-polarization screen eliminates all glare effects and increases the precision of your vision in any circumstance. This is the highest sun protection available, particularly popular with those passionate about the seabed.
SPORTS SUNGLASSES WITH YOUR PRESCRIPTION
When you have vision problems, finding high-performance and comfortable sports sunglasses can quickly become an obstacle course. Thanks to our integrated RX laboratory, the first and only one in France, our REACTIV lenses can be adapted to your prescription on request.
