FABRIS LANE HISTORY

Mario Fabris and Rod Lane met in Italy in 1971 when they both worked for the Mazzuchelli Group, a major Italian plastics company supplying most of the optical frame manufacturing industry with materials of the highest quality. At a time when American sunglasses brands dominated the market, they worked together introducing Italian sunglasses to the UK, building up years of rich experience in the industry. Rod and Mario formed their own company in 1982, and in 1993 launched the Fabris Lane brand, it was an overnight success.

In 2009 we launched the Fabris Lane Homme collection to complement the already well established Fabris Lane womens collection. 2009 also saw the introduction of our ophthalmic collections for both Fabris Lane and Fabris Lane Homme and this year we are launching Fabris Lane Junior, a range of cool and sophisticated sunglasses for children aged 2 to 13 yrs.

As the UK’s largest independently owned eyewear company Fabris Lane has over twenty seven years of delivering to market over five million pieces of distinctive and desirable eyewear each year. Our collections are crafted from the finest materials and always made to the highest quality.
