MEI Technology and Water Efficiency

MEI Technology and Water Efficiency

Sustainability shapes our day-to-day operations. Located at the heart of our store on António Augusto Aguiar Avenue, our lab technology is both functional and educational, demonstrating how innovation and environmental sustainability go hand in hand.

MEI Technology: Zero-Waste Dry Cutting

The MEI EasyBuddy system, combined with EasyFit Trend, completely eliminates water consumption in an activity that traditionally relies on it:

  • Completely Dry Process: Each lens is molded with millimeter-level precision without using a single drop of water.

  • Clean Waste: Without water, the lens shavings are vacuumed up in their pure state and sent directly for recycling via the CRR circuit.

Advanced Filtration and Water Protection

For specific projects involving traditional machines that still use water, we ensure strict environmental management:

  • Microplastic Retention: All water passes through a high-efficiency filtration system, trapping debris and preventing plastic waste from polluting the public water supply and the oceans.

Global Commitment to Eco-efficiency

We have reduced our environmental footprint throughout the store to support the transition to a circular economy by:

  • Low-impact hydraulic systems and responsible waste management.

  • High-efficiency LED lighting and smart climate control.
