## Development Background
Among daily glasses users, issues such as fingerprints, sebum stains, and UV degradation are common concerns. "Glasses KeePer" was developed with the aim of resolving these daily dissatisfactions and enabling glasses to be used more comfortably and for a longer period.
## Product Features
### 1. Anti-fouling performance that reduces the burden of maintenance
It is resistant to fingerprints, sebum, cosmetic stains, and dust, and even if they adhere, they can be removed with just water washing and light wiping. This anti-fouling performance reduces the conventional maintenance burden.
### 2. Suppresses degradation due to UV rays
It suppresses discoloration and material degradation caused by UV rays, maintaining the beauty of the product for a long time after purchase. In addition to maintaining external quality, it also contributes to extending product life.
### 3. Safety confirmed by a third-party organization
Assuming long-term skin contact, safety tests were conducted by a third-party organization (CERI). The impact on the human body and various materials has been confirmed.
### 4. In-store application service
This service is provided when purchasing glasses or sunglasses, and the application time is approximately 10 minutes. Store staff perform the application, ensuring a consistent finish.
## Usage Test Results
In usage tests conducted by our own staff before launch, the following evaluations were obtained:
- "Dirt is easy to wipe off, and the luster is maintained." (32-year-old male)
- "I feel the effect continues even with just water washing, which gives me peace of mind." (25-year-old female)
- "Even with outdoor use, dirt is easy to remove, making it easy to handle daily." (47-year-old male)
