Overview

• Fogging is not merely a visual nuisance; it is the worst thing that can happen to a safety spectacle — because when a worker's lens fogs, he does not stop working, he lifts the spectacle off his eyes to see. His eye is left completely exposed at the very moment he is absorbed in his task and least alert to what is flying around him. The ZECCHIN AFC safety spectacle is built to address exactly that.
• When does a lens fog? When warm humid air meets a colder surface and water vapour condenses on it. In the Saudi working environment that happens daily in three situations: stepping from an air-conditioned space into the heat outside, wearing a mask or respirator that directs warm humid exhaled air upwards onto the lens, and physical exertion that raises facial temperature and perspiration. It is worse still in coastal areas such as Dammam, Jubail and Yanbu where humidity is higher to begin with.
• This spectacle tackles the problem from two directions at once. First: an anti-fog coating on the lens that reduces the formation of the microscopic droplets which cloud vision. Second — and this is what many overlook: ventilated temples with openings that let air pass at the sides of the head, so the air behind the lens is renewed rather than trapped. Combining a surface treatment with mechanical ventilation works better than either on its own.
• The lens also carries a hard abrasion-resistant coating — which is what determines the spectacle's practical service life in dusty environments where dust is wiped off several times a shift. The lens is optical grade polycarbonate described as distortion free, and that point belongs specifically to long shifts: a lens that distorts the image slightly looks fine in the first minute, but strains the eye over hours and brings on headaches. The lens is UV protective, and is flexible and highly impact resistant.
• Structurally there is a wrap around design that widens coverage around the eye, a one piece integrated nose bridge rather than a fitted part that can come away, and a soft TPE insert in the temple that prevents slippage as the wearer sweats. It is available with clear and dark lenses, packed 20 pieces per mono box and 160 pieces per carton — that is, 8 boxes per carton. Made in India. Available through Al-Najma Al-Wataniyah with guaranteed quality and fast delivery across Riyadh, Dammam, and all KSA regions.

Size & Color Table

Certificates & Standards

• According to the manufacturer's data the spectacle carries the CE mark and ANSI Z87.1 certification for eye and face protection, the reference adopted in many project specifications and contractor agreements across the Kingdom. Certification markings are printed on the lens and temple, and these are the reference at field audit on projects. Our sales team can provide the type-examination certificate and conformity documents on request for inclusion in project files.

Additional reference standards for the Saudi market:

• ANSI/ISEA Z87.1 (the American standard for eye and face protection)
• EN 166 (the European basic requirements for eye protectors)
• EN 168 (test methods for eye protectors — including the anti-fog test)
• EN 170 (ultraviolet filters) · EN 172 (sunglare filters for industrial use) for the dark lens
• Regulation (EU) 2016/425 — Category II personal protective equipment

Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: Why is fogging a safety problem rather than just a nuisance?

• Because when a worker's lens fogs, he does not stop working — he lifts the spectacle to see. His eye is then completely exposed at the very moment he is absorbed in his task and least alert to what is flying around him. A spectacle that fogs does not merely lose clarity; it loses its protective function at the worst possible time.

Q2: How does this spectacle deal with fogging?

• From two directions at once: an anti-fog coating on the lens that reduces the formation of the microscopic droplets which cloud vision, and ventilated temples with openings that let air pass at the sides of the head, so the air behind the lens is renewed rather than trapped. Combining a surface treatment with mechanical ventilation works better than either on its own.

Q3: Is it suitable for work with a respirator?

• That is one of the main situations it is designed for. A mask or respirator directs warm humid exhaled air upwards onto the lens, which is the commonest daily complaint of anyone combining a spectacle with a mask. The anti-fog coating together with temple ventilation addresses exactly that. A well-sealed mask across the nose bridge remains an important contributing factor in reducing the upward flow of exhaled air.

Q4: What does a "distortion-free optical lens" mean?

• It means the lens is manufactured to a precision that prevents the image bending or rippling across its surface. Its importance shows in long shifts and precision work: a lens that distorts the image slightly looks fine in the first minute, but strains the eye over hours and brings on headaches and a loss of concentration — a cumulative effect that is not noticed directly.

Q5: How is it packed and how many come in a carton?

• Every 20 pieces in a box, and 160 pieces per carton — that is, 8 boxes per carton. Carton weight is 6.45 kg net and 7.45 kg gross, its dimensions are 65 × 30 × 27 cm and its volume is 0.06 m³. These figures are provided to ease shipping and storage calculations on project orders.
