TECHNOLOGY
Engineered in Argentina — Designed for the World
Technology
Every ORBITAL frame carries two proprietary technologies inside it — one in the frame, one in the lens. Neither is decoration. Both are the reason our eyewear holds up to scrutiny most brands at this price point can't survive.
01 — FrameXYLON®
XYLON® is our proprietary high-performance polyamide, engineered specifically for eyewear that has to perform, not just pose.
Most frames at this price point are built from standard injected plastics — rigid, prone to cracking, and quick to lose their shape. XYLON® is different. It's flexible without being flimsy, lightweight without feeling cheap, and built to flex thousands of times — on and off your face, in your bag, in the heat of a Miami summer — without losing its line.
- Lightweight by design — built for all-day wear, not just all-day looks
- Flexible, not fragile — engineered to absorb stress instead of cracking under it
- Built to last — resists the wear that turns most sunglasses into a one-season purchase
And on every single ORBITAL frame — without exception — the temple branding isn't printed. It's a precision metal appliqué, set into the XYLON® itself. It's a small detail. It's also the one that separates a frame built to be noticed from a frame built to be worn for years.
02 — LensVSL™
VSL™ is our proprietary lens system, engineered to do more than block the sun.
Every ORBITAL lens — VSL™ powered — is built to manage light the way premium optical lenses do, not the way disposable sunglasses do.
- UV protection from UV100 to UV400 — full-spectrum defense, validated to European and FDA standards
- Blue light filtering — reduces digital eye strain without distorting natural color
- Enhanced contrast, reduced glare — sharper vision in bright, reflective conditions — driving, water, snow
- Impact and scratch resistant — designed to survive being lived in, not just looked at
This is the technology behind every mirrored, gradient, and polarized lens in the ORBITAL collection — powering the exact same protection whether you're wearing CASABLANCA or LE MANS.
03 — PromiseLifetime Warranty
Because XYLON® and VSL™ are engineered to last, we stand behind them for as long as you own them.
Every ORBITAL frame is backed by a Lifetime Warranty covering manufacturing defects in materials and craftsmanship. If a defect existed at the time your frame was made, we'll repair or replace it — no matter how many years it's been with you.
This warranty doesn't cover normal wear and tear, accidental damage, or unauthorized alterations. For full terms, see our Refund & Warranty Policy.
04 — OriginBuilt In Argentina
XYLON® and VSL™ are made under one roof — our own factory in Buenos Aires, where over a quarter-century of craftsmanship meets the precision of in-house engineering.
It's why we can say, without exaggeration, that ORBITAL is designed with the same conviction as eyewear that costs four times more.
