Substrate and coating under one roof

Casting, hard coating, multi coating

Seesee describes itself as a caster that also runs the coating: "We own the most advanced production lines to produce both the coating and the substrates of the plastic optical lenses." The About page photographs eight steps from mould fitting to warehouse, in a dust-free workshop.
