Brand Story
Started in 2008, PapaViva began as a small company selling sunglasses on the beach. Seeing a need in the market for technology that could combat intense glare and harmful UV rays, and to call attention to the massive waste of sunglasses, PapaViva sourced the most sustainable materials and designed and produced many polarized lenses using advanced low-waste manufacturing processes. Through continuous reformation and innovation, the PapaViva Pro+ lenses were created eventually. Founder wants PapaViva to be a sustainable business that protects people's eyes and protects the planet. He made it.
Technology and advanced science are at the heart of PapaViva. Since 2010, we has continued to focus on research and technology development to produce increasingly innovative lenses. All of PapaViva's products have been precision machined using only premium optical materials, and subtly blend cutting-edge technology with aesthetically sculpted designs to create the world's best lenses. The lenses offer zero flare and ultimate clarity and are optimized over the years to give you richer colors without distortion. The production process of PapaViva lenses involves more than thirty different stages, combining first-class materials, superb artisan expertise and meticulous attention to detail with leading-edge technology. Each pair of lenses is a masterpiece of engineering and craftsmanship.
Leading the industry in product innovation, PapaViva has grown from a small company to one of the world's most prominent manufacturers of premium lenses.
