Rodenstock Announces New Lens Partnership for Canada

German lens supplier Rodenstock has reorganized their business in Canada as of January 1, 2015. Rodenstock’ s ophthalmic lenses will now be exclusively represented in Canada by Toronto-based independent optical lab, Plastic Plus.

Plastic Plus, the largest remaining independent optical lab in the country, will begin local production of Rodenstock lens designs at the Toronto lab in quarter 2, 2015. “We signed an agreement with Rodenstock Germany, making us the exclusive Canadian distributor of Rodenstock lenses, and from the second quarter of 2015, we also become the exclusive manufacturer of these lenses in the country,” Paul Faibish, President of Plastic Plus confirmed by email.

Plastic Plus is also currently the exclusive distributor of SEIKO free-form lenses and anti-reflection coatings. Owner Paul Faibish indicated that the SEIKO and Rodenstock lens brands will continue to be marketed under the Plastic Plus umbrella.
