Glass Lenses and Optical Mirrors
ECOGLASS glass lenses and optical mirrors are designed for lighting, technical and optical applications where precise light control, durability, long lifetime and material stability are essential. We manufacture pressed glass optical components for both standard and custom solutions – from simple lenses to special shapes designed for specific applications.
Our product range includes lenses for different types of light sources and optical systems. If standard optics do not meet the requirements of your project, we can also help with a custom optical component design.

Lenses for Lighting and Optical Applications
Glass lenses manufactured by ECOGLASS are suitable for a wide range of lighting applications. They can be used wherever light needs to be directed, distributed, focused or adapted to the required optical function.
Depending on the project, we can work with different shapes, sizes and optical properties of the component.
Glass lenses can be used, for example, in LED luminaires, industrial lighting, automotive lighting and other technical solutions where a reliable and precise optical component is required.
Aspherical, Spherical, Plano-Convex, Fresnel,
TIR or freeform Lenses
Our production enables us to manufacture different types of glass lenses according to the required optical function. Commonly produced shapes include aspherical lenses, spherical lenses, plano-convex lenses, Fresnel lenses, TIR collimators, freeform lenses and other optical parts designed for a specific way of working with light.
Each lens type has a different purpose. Some lenses are suitable for directing light, others for spreading, focusing or creating the required light distribution. The choice of the right solution therefore depends on the light source, the desired result and the technical possibilities of the entire application.

Freeform Lenses for Specific Requirements
One of the major advantages of the ECOGLASS hand-molding pressing process is the ability to manufacture lenses with freeform surfaces. These lenses are designed so that the final shape corresponds to the required lighting function and the possibilities of optical glass production.
Freeform lenses are especially useful in projects where standard optics are not sufficient. They can help modify the light distribution, improve the efficiency of the optical system or adapt the behaviour of light to a specific luminaire or technical device.

Optical Mirrors for Lighting Applications
In addition to glass lenses, ECOGLASS also manufactures optical mirrors for applications where light needs to be reflected, directed or shaped. These mirrors can be part of lighting modules, optical assemblies or other technical solutions where precise light control is required.
When designing and manufacturing optical mirrors, it is important to consider the shape of the glass component, it is connection to the light source and the required optical function.
Standard Optics or Custom Design
For some project, standard optics from the ECOGLASS product range may be the right solution. However, if a customer needs a specific shape, a different light distribution or a solution for a particular light source, we can also work on a custom optical component design.
ECOGLASS can help customers choose a suitable lens or develop a new solution based on the requirements of the application. The goal is to find an optical component that meets the required function and can also be manufactured in a stable and efficient way.

Connection with Optical Design and Simulation
In custom projects, lenses and mirrors can be connected with optical design, optical simulation and prototype production. First, the required optical function can be verified, then a suitable component shape can be designed and later optimized for production of prototypes or serial volumes and functional testing.
This process is especially useful when the final component needs to work with a specific LED or laser source, meet a precisely defined light distribution or fit into an existing optical system.

Quality Control and Verification of Optical Function
For optical components, it is important to verify not only the shape and dimensions, but also the final function of the part in a specific application. Depending on the project, lenses and mirrors can be connected with measurement, shape control or light map evaluation.
This makes it possible to assess whether the manufactured optical part corresponds to the design, meets technical requirements and is ready for the next stage of development, assembly or serial production.
Practical Use of Lenses and Mirrors
Glass lenses and optical mirrors can be used in many lighting and technical solutions. They are used, for example, in lighting optics, LED applications, transport infractructure, automotive, railway, runway lighting, concentrated photovoltaics / CPV and other fields where a precise and stable optical function is required.

How to Choose the Right Glass Lens
When choosing a glass lens, it is important to consider the type of light source, the required light distribution, the size of the optical component, the mounting method and the environment in which the component will be used.
In some cases, a standard lens may be sufficient. In others, a custom optical solution may be more suitable.
If you are not sure which glass lens or optical solution is right for your project, send us your requirements. We will help you assess the possibilities of both standard optics and custom production.
