[Industry First*] Eliminating 'Dirt Stress' for Eyeglasses. Eyeglass-specific Coating Co-developed with KeePer to be Offered Nationwide at Eyegan Ichiba from April 1, 2026.

Megane Top Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Shizuoka City, Shizuoka Prefecture; Representative Director and President: Masahiro Tomizawa; hereinafter "Eyegan Ichiba"), which operates "Eyegan Ichiba" stores nationwide, will launch "Glasses KeePer," an eyeglass-specific coating co-developed with the car coating brand KeePer, as a new service to reduce daily stress related to dirt and deterioration of eyeglasses. This service will be available nationwide at Eyegan Ichiba stores starting April 1, 2026 (Wednesday).

The provision of an eyeglass-specific coating co-developed with KeePer is an industry-first initiative in the eyewear industry.

Development Background

For daily eyeglass users, issues such as fingerprints, sebum stains, and deterioration due to UV rays are common. "Glasses KeePer" was developed with the aim of resolving these daily frustrations and enabling eyeglasses to be used more comfortably and for a longer period.

Product Features

1. Stain-resistant performance to reduce the burden of maintenance

It features stain-resistant performance that makes fingerprints, sebum, cosmetic stains, and dust less likely to adhere, and even if they do, they can be removed with just water washing and light wiping, reducing the conventional maintenance burden.

2. Suppresses deterioration caused by UV rays

It suppresses discoloration and material deterioration caused by UV rays, maintaining the beauty of the product as purchased for a long time. In addition to maintaining external quality, it also contributes to extending product life.

3. Safety confirmed by a third-party organization

Assuming prolonged skin contact, safety tests were conducted by a third-party organization (CERI). The effects on the human body and various materials have been confirmed.

4. In-store application service

This service is offered when purchasing new eyeglasses or sunglasses, and the application time is approximately 10 minutes. Store staff perform the application, ensuring a consistent finish.

Usage Test Results

Usage tests conducted by our staff before launch yielded the following evaluations:

・ "Dirt is easy to wipe off, and the shine 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)
