Glare can make it harder for outdoor workers to do their jobs in comfort and safety. Harsh Australian sun bounces off surfaces like concrete, water, sand and glass, potentially leading to eye strain and making it more difficult for workers to focus on tasks.
While standard safety glasses help protect workers’ eyes from dust and debris, they usually don’t reduce glare. For this, your workers need safety glasses that feature polarised, mirrored lenses.
Bollé Safety’s STKS range of safety glasses now comes with an option for Cobalt Mirror (or ‘blue flash’) lenses, with a clear Crystal frame. These lenses combine polarisation with a mirror finish. The polarisation helps block the horizontal light waves that cause glare, while allowing vertical light waves through. This can help improve visual clarity and contrast for the wearer.
The thin reflective mirror coating on the outside of the lenses further reduces glare and optimises comfort, by bouncing harsh light back and away from the eyes.
The Cobalt Mirror lenses offer improved depth and contrast perception. They provide an accurate perception of colour (and no, you don’t see everything through a blue tint!) The lenses dial up sun safety, providing protection against UV radiation. They also look great, especially combined with the STKS Crystal frames. It’s a sleek and stylish combination that doesn’t compromise on safety and effectiveness.
The benefits of the STKS range include:
STKS safety glasses are ideal for workers in a wide range of industries, including construction, utilities, transport, agriculture and civil engineering. They work for everyone, from apprentices and trainees to experienced tradies, supervisors and managers.
Safety glasses are not always known for their stylishness, but the STKS range looks good enough to be worn any time! Younger workers love that they can wear them straight to the pub after work, and the Cobalt Mirror lenses with Crystal frames make them perfect for use as sunglasses. They can also do double-duty after hours, for bike riding, skiing and playing water sports.
Tamara Mika, APAC Marketing Manager at Bollé Safety, says the company is excited to add the on-trend Crystal frames with Cobalt Mirror lenses to the STKS range. “These glasses provide extra protection for your workers’ eyes in the harshest of outdoor conditions, enabling them to do their work in greater safety and comfort as well as in style.”
