One of the most coveted prizes at the annual Silmo d’Or awards is the Technological Innovation category, which this year was won by Italian eyewear manufacturer Blackfin for its Shark-lock glazing system.
Designed by Blackfin senior vice-president of product and design Corrado Rosson (centre), the system uses special grooving in the rim that enables the lenses to be locked into the frame inside a thin sheet of metal.
‘This is also a prize for Italy and for all those who, like us, believe in the authenticity of the Italian product,' said a very happy Nicola del Din (right), managing director of Pramaor, who was also joined at the awards by company CFO Giancarlo Recchia (left).
