Mission
Statement.
But why, some say, eyewear? Why choose this as our goal?
And they may well ask, why climb the highest mountain?
We choose to change the production of eyewear. We choose to change the production of eyewear this year and develop the materials, not because it's easy, but because it's hard. Because that goal will serve to organize and measure the best of our energies and skills, because that challenge is one that we’re willing to accept. One we are unwilling to postpone. And, therefore, as we set sail, we ask you to join our mission for change in the eyewear industry.
The G1/F1 System.
The G1/F1 brings the GENERA workflow and automation to your desktop.
The G1/F1 utilizes the GENERA shuttle technology for a clean and safe workflow. The material unit, combined with the material cartridge, ensures a clean and safe handling.
After the printing process, the G1 automatically stores the frame in the shuttle.
The frame is then automatically post-processed by the F1. The frame is cleaned in two cleaning tanks specially designed for secure use.
The F1 uses a mercury flash bulb for curing the frame in inert atmosphere.
The whole workflow is RFID tracked.
The G1 uses digital light processing (DLP) technology, and the frame is generated, layer by layer.
In the F1, the frame is washed, dried, and light cured in a fully automated process.
Designs.
For Mission Eyewear, Sébastien Brusset developed an outstanding exclusive collection of digital designs.
These designs can be downloaded for free and printed directly in the shop with the G1/F1 system.
For more than two decades, Sébastien Brusset has worked as an award-winning designer specializing in eyewear and vision, more specifically in the field of luxury and innovative design.
He has notably worked with TAG-Heuer, McLaren, Fred, Leica, Sonia Rykiel, Karl Lagerfeld and many more.
“Mission Eyewear will shape the future of the eyewear industry.
Now opticians can produce high-quality 3D printed frames with the push of a button.”

Digital Acetate.
Henkel and GENERA.
Mission Eyewear materials have been extensively tested to fulfill all the needs for eyewear frames. Henkel and GENERA together made a set of materials that allows the printing of clear, translucent, and opaque frames in any color.
Finally, materials with aesthetics, high-quality surface finish, true colors, and durability are available for 3D printed eyewear.
The G1/F1 system includes an RFID tagged cartridge system, one cartridge for each material.
The G1/F1 system automatically identifies the cartridge and the material and optimizes the production parameters accordingly.
Memory Effect.
Digital Acetate has balanced properties with high modulus and impact resistance.
It also exhibits a memory effect when heated to 70-80°C. The shape of the frame can be adjusted at elevated temperatures, and by reheating the frame, it will return to its original shape.
A Colorful Universe.

Dive into a universe of infinite different vivid colors.
From transparent to translucent, all colors are fantastic and not comparable to any 3D printed frame colors you have seen before. This is because our material "Digital Acetate" is transparent and so you can have the brightest colors.
Be Green.
The world is increasingly recognizing the urgent need for sustainable production. GENERA is about to addresses that need with Mission Eyewear and In-Shop 3D printing for a more sustainable production process and reduced supply chain emissions.
Imagine:
Compared to the production of an acetate frame, the In-Shop production with the G1/F1 system safes up to 90% of CO2 emission. Sustainability & Responsibility with Mission Eyewear.
Safe up to 90% CO2
90 % less CO2
