If it doesn’t say Flexon, it’s not.
Flexon Memory Metal revolutionized the eyewear industry, creating an entirely new material category for eyeglass frames. In 1988, Marchon launched its flexible metal eyewear collection utilizing Flexon memory metal in the Autoflex collection. The instant success of the collection allowed for further R & D that lead to Marchon developing products made from Flexon Memory Metal in every conceivable style and design.

Today, Flexon is the world’s favorite Flexible frame. It can be imitated but never duplicated, as Marchon holds U.S., Canadian, European, Japanese and other Asian patents relating to its Flexon frames.
In addition, Flexon Memory Metal requires special welding and coloring techniques. Some imitation memory metal frames are prone to color flaking off and inferior welds breaking. Marchon has developed proprietary information regarding the optimal formula and processes for working with memory metals.
With over 19 years of manufacturing experience, Flexon products are the choice for over 20 million very satisfied wearers.
Flexon Memory Metal is used only in the very best eyewear collections such as Nike, Calvin Klein, Nautica, X Games, Autoflex, Flexon, Flexon for kids, Flexon Suns, Flexon Select, Flexon Magnetics and Tres Jolie with Flexon. Marchon offers over 200 different styles made with Flexon.
Marchon doesn’t just sell flexible frames, Marchon helps sell Flexon products through… Flexon products are supported by dynamic marketing including consumer TV advertising and award winning point of purchase materials designed to increase awareness and sales.
PHILOSOPHY: Marchon’s C.E.O. Al Berg says, “I expect to see imitators attempt to market memory metal type products. However, the optimal formula and process used by our factories to make genuine Flexon frames is exclusive to Marchon. Due to the hi-tech nature of this material, it is very difficult to manufacture consistently and difficult to color for long-term color adhesion.We fully anticipate there will be attempts to imitate Flexon, but none can lawfully duplicate exactly or infringe our patents with their attempts.”
