A completely new design of eyeglass frames with embellishments encapsulated in resin.
**Customer Development Needs** We received a request from a customer dealing with glasses and sunglasses for a proposal for eyewear frames with decorative features that are not conventional. **More Specific Requirements** They requested a decoration that is covered by resin, rather than traditional methods like transfer or painting. **Our Proposal** We applied our development technology of "inserting transfer decorative molded products to encapsulate the transfer decoration" to explore sheets that can withstand the material requirements for eyewear frames. We proposed the idea of "inserting sheet insert molded products again to encapsulate the decorative sheet in resin." The decoration was implemented on the sheets using methods such as inkjet printing and vapor deposition, and we repeatedly prototyped to ensure it could withstand insert molding, ultimately achieving the specifications. **Customer Evaluation** Not only were we able to create a design for glasses with decorations that are completely sealed from external exposure and free from concerns about deterioration, but we also received high praise after exhibiting at a global eyewear and sunglasses trade show.
