Flō Optics is a digital printing platform for optical lens coatings, positioned to disrupt the traditional wet-process coating methods used by ophthalmic labs. Founded in 2019 and operating from offices in Israel and Switzerland, the company applies additive manufacturing techniques to deposit photochromic, tint, and hard coat layers with pixel-level control. This approach reduces inventory requirements and environmental waste compared to batch dip-coating or spin-coating processes.
The core technology is a modular multistage production line that uses non-contact ink deposition to apply coatings with high precision and scalability. Unlike conventional analog methods that coat entire lens batches uniformly, Flō Optics' digital system enables per-lens customization without tooling changeovers. The company has filed an international patent application (PCT/IB2025/050988) covering fabrication of optical articles via additive deposition.
Target customers include ophthalmic labs and eyewear manufacturers. Flō Optics has secured an exclusive supplier agreement with PPG for digitally applied optical coatings, and strategic investments and collaborations with Mitsui Chemicals and SDC Technologies. The company also works with MEI Systems as an investor and collaborator. Total disclosed funding is $37.2 million, with support from the Jaglom family and MEI Systems.
Flō Optics' competitive moat lies in its proprietary digital deposition process and established partnerships with major chemical and materials firms. The primary risk is adoption inertia in a conservative ophthalmic supply chain accustomed to wet-coating infrastructure. The company's acquisition of Sintratec's Swiss headquarters and team expansion signal ongoing operational scaling.
