Case Study: Fitz Frames helps frontline healthcare workers with 3D-printed protective eyewear using Consumer Goods Technology

Fitz Frames - Customer Case Study

Fitz Frames, a custom glasses manufacturer, faced the challenge of frontline healthcare workers lacking access to protective eyewear at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic. With the help of vendor Consumer Goods Technology, the company sought to rapidly design and produce a comfortable, safe solution to address this critical need.

Consumer Goods Technology’s solution involved leveraging Fitz Frames' existing 3D printing and facial mapping technology to quickly develop the Fitz Protect eyewear. The frames were designed, tested, and shipped to medical personnel within two weeks. The positive results included a product that met or exceeded the comfort of standard eyewear, and the initiative was supported by a campaign to provide the glasses for free to healthcare workers.
