What is the process of creating Hanukeii sunglasses?

Hanukeii sunglasses go a long way before being released for sale. In each of the steps of this beautiful journey there is style and dedication; two essential maxims so that Hanukeii sunglasses accompany you for many years without losing their quality or essence. It is essential that good sunglasses meet the quality standards according to the European standard, and also have a plus of design and originality that make us opt for them. Hanukeii offers you the possibility of not giving up either of these two qualities. If you are interested in knowing more about the manufacturing process of sunglasses, read on to find out!

The idea

First of all, and before launching into the workshops, it is necessary to come up with an idea that represents the values ​​that the brand wants to transmit. In the case of Hanukeii, each collection is inspired by a corner of California where freedom, simplicity, and calm are three of the main protagonists. In this way, each sketch, each idea and each thought must be linked to very specific characteristics that represent our Hanukeii Girls.

Inspiration comes to Hanukeii from multiple sources: a sunset on the beach, the calm sea of ​​July, the setting sun on a remote island, the tranquility of a summer morning walk, the art of a cosmopolitan city, etc. Every idea comes from a source of inspiration, and therefore, it is very important to be clear about what you want to convey and how you want to convey it. The Hanukeii creative team seeks to reach cutting-edge women who enjoy the city's fashion and art in the same way as a mojito on the beach.

The design

After having come up with a good idea that represents the values ​​of the brand and the creative concept of the collection, you have to take action. Hanukeii's designers painstakingly make hundreds of sketches until they find the ideal one to continue with the sunglasses manufacturing process. These sketches detail each of their parts in an exhaustive manner: length of the temples, measurements of the lenses, design of the frame, the range of colors to be used, the materials , the brand logo…

The prototype

Once you have managed to find the final sketch of the sunglasses, it is time to materialize it. To do this, we will manufacture a prototype with which we can check whether the materials, measurements, shape and all aspects related to the design and quality of the product are as we had imagined. Once all the relevant elements have been modified, a new prototype is created again until the final one is found. In this way, all Hanukeii sunglasses go through a control during the manufacturing process to ensure their quality and durability.

The selection of materials

Although the materials have already been preselected in the sketches and prototypes of the sunglasses, it is essential to carry out a thorough analysis of the materials to be used. At Hanukeii we use strong, lightweight materials that are easy to shape, dye, and work with.

As for lenses, in addition to having category 3 UV400 protection, most Hanukeii glasses have polarized lenses. Finally, it is also necessary to determine the materials that will be used in the manufacture of the sunglasses case. Hanukeii opts for microfiber cases, a soft material with which you can clean your sunglasses without fear of damaging the lenses.

Production

Once the design and materials that are going to be used in the manufacture of the sunglasses are clear, it is time to produce. To achieve this, Hanukeii has several factories where the initial sketches are shaped by qualified personnel and craftsmen who make it possible for the sunglasses to have the desired quality and design.

The frames are manufactured using machines that are programmed according to the thickness and size to be achieved. Once this is done, the unfinished frames go through a machine that files their fronts according to the established dimensions. Next, do the same with the arms of the sunglasses. Using automatic machines, the front of the glasses is assembled with the temples so that the product is unified. Once this is done, the glasses are pressed into the frame semi-automatically so that they remain firmly in position. The product is then passed through a polishing and brightening machine where the glasses are ready for the final details.

The final details

Before launching the sunglasses for sale, it is necessary to add the last details such as the logo on the temples, the numerical distribution of each product, the placement of the cases with the printed logo and their corresponding information leaflet, etc. . In short, it is essential to check that everything has gone as agreed. If there are any details that have been lost in the manufacturing process, it is at this step that the product is corrected or discarded. No sunglasses can go on sale with any defect, no matter how minor. In this way, we ensure that all products meet agreed quality and design standards.
