The first collection of Armor-Lux eyewear presents
five models each for men and women, all designed
for optimum visual comfort. Each product carries the
label ‘Origine France Garantie’, a guarantee that they
have been made in France.

Armor-Lux Eyewear is being distributed in
France by Artmonium, and work is underway to
extend the distribution network to other countries.
STEP 1 STEP 2 “This unprecedented collaboration based on
innovation that makes sense for our client reinforces
our desire to offer new solutions that respect the
brands we support,” said Jean-Pierre Delacroix,
president of Artmonium.
STEP 3
Artmonium has over thirty years’ experience in
the distribution of very high quality designer eyewear
and, more recently, licensed eyewear that meets
their stringent criteria. The company represents
products manufactured in France and in countries
known for their high standards in the production
of frames in different materials. While Armor-Lux is

the latest in its portfolio, Artmonium’s other brands
include Festina, KliiK Denmark, Oliviero Contini made
launched by Armor-Lux in July 2021, in Italy, La Matta, Evatik, Kaos, Alpine, Art’ Kentiel, and
comes for a start-up from Bret. Le Petit Prince for young children.
For the past year, Fil & Fab, which
specialises in the recycling of used
fishing nets, has been turning this
waste into nylon pellets. The new
resistant and aesthetic frames are
made from these.
Recovered used fishing
nets are sorted and dismantled;
and the different layers of the
nets are separated by a social
integration company. Fil & Fab
fine grinds the material reclaimed
to produce plastic granules and
pellets. The material obtained
through the process is then
extruded to make up the mounts
to be crafted into the selected
designs. Manufacturing of
injected glasses to create the
frames is the final step.
