ØRGREEN TAKES ITS SHEET TITANIUM TO THE SUN
Danish eyewear brand Ørgreen is introducing seven new sun frames made from sheet titanium, debuting the collection as a preview for SILMO 2026 and the 2027 season.
The Sheet Titanium SUN collection showcases lightness as a core design principle, featuring ultra-thin titanium, sculptural forms and innovative details that define the brand’s approach to sunwear.
The manufacturing process begins with a flat sheet of premium Japanese titanium. Rather than bending the material into shape, Ørgreen carves it. The edges are chamfered into fine, faceted lines while depth is milled directly into the surface. This creates a frame with a distinctly three-dimensional and architectural presence that feels almost weightless on the face. The exceptional lightness is balanced by structure, substance and precision, with the comfort of the design only fully revealed when worn.
“Taking our sheet titanium to the sun meant pushing the material as far as it could go, past every boundary of our craft. It was a way to test ourselves, to prove again that precision and quality aren’t just words for us; they’re the whole point. We took a flat, humble material and gave it a truly premium expression. For me, this collection is a reminder of exactly what Ørgreen does best,” said Gregers Fastrup, Sales Director at Ørgreen Optics.
The seven new frames each have a clear character and contemporary shape:
Avenor represents the purest expression of the craft, featuring extreme chamfering, one of the most refined bridge details Ørgreen has ever produced, and its thinnest titanium temples yet. The frame is designed for customers who notice detail.
Varyon offers a stronger, more masculine aesthetic, cut from a substantial 2.5mm sheet with a chamfer angled inward toward the lens for real structural depth. It provides a natural fit for active, sports-minded wearers.
Norven creates the appearance of titanium pretending to be acetate, with a bold, unisex shape featuring a faux bridge bump milled out of the flat sheet rather than bent forward. It delivers a big presence while remaining flat and comfortable against the face.
Devrin has attitude with sharp geometry, a sculpted topline and integrated sidepieces that give a subtle cheek-lifting effect. These sunglasses are designed for a confident customer who wants to be seen.
Auralis brings relaxed, early-Eighties glamour with an oversized, generous shape that provides plenty of lens coverage without the heavy feel oversized frames usually carry.
Tavric has a broad, comfortable fit for wider faces, with familiar lines that make it highly wearable.
Kelven is the design team’s favourite and the most versatile shape in the collection. Its character changes completely with the colour, appearing sharp and contemporary in bright combinations and quiet and timeless in darker tones. This single frame suits very different audiences.
Like every Ørgreen collection, the Sheet Titanium SUN collection is designed in Copenhagen and handmade in Japan across more than a hundred processes, representing a story of true craftsmanship and production finesse. This is why these frames hold their shape, their finish, and their extraordinarily comfortable fit.
The collection will be on display at SILMO Paris in Hall 7, Booth C088. More information is available at orgreenoptics.com.
