As glasses manufacturers, we know that the production of acetate glasses is a delicate process that combines traditional craftsmanship with 

modern technology. This article will detail the complete time cycle required to produce a pair of high-quality acetate glasses to help consumers 

better understand this complex and delicate manufacturing art.

Below is a pair of acetate sunglasses.

What are acetate glasses? Simply put, they are glasses made of acetate, including acetate optical frames and acetate sunglasses. Cellulose Acetate 

is a polymer material derived from natural cotton wool. It has become the preferred material for high-end eyeglass frames due to its excellent plasticity,

 rich color expression and comfortable wearing experience. Unlike traditional metal glasses or injection-molded glasses, the production of acetate 

glasses relies more on the perfect combination of manual craftsmanship and precision machinery.The production of acetate glasses is a complex 

process, which requires more than 100 processes from product design, material procurement, CNC cutting to assembly. So, how long does it take to 

produce a pair of high-quality acetate glasses? As a professional eyewear manufacturer, acetate glasses are our most advantageous product. The 

following is a detailed analysis based on our manufacturing process and the time required.

After receiving the customer's order, we first need to check the content of the order and confirm it with the customer item by item. Only after 

confirmation can we proceed with the subsequent operations. This process takes about 1 day. Material preparation. After receiving the customer's 

order, we need to order raw materials, including acetate materials, lenses, hinges, packaging materials, etc. If there are other accessories, they also

 need to be ordered together. Unless some special accessories are used, acetate is the main material and takes the longest time to order. After sorting 

out the color and quantity of acetate, we must first consult with the acetate factory to find out whether there are MOQ and other issues, and then 

send the formal purchase order to the material factory. We usually order acetate materials from material factories such as Mazzucchelli, Jinju, and 

Jimei. Some of Mazzucchelli's materials are produced in Italy and some are produced in China. Their production time is different. In the case of no 

inventory, it usually takes about 30 days. If it is a large-size material of 1400*700mm, the customization time will be longer, generally 60 days or 

even longer. For products made in Italy, the time required for transportation from Italy to our factory is about 15 days. Therefore, the time required 

for material preparation is about 30 to 40 days.
