The only safe way to view solar eclipses is with ECLIPSERS safe solar glasses from American Paper Optics. CE certified, independently tested, and safe for direct solar viewing, Eclipsers are manufactured exclusively with patented Solar Skreen® lenses (US Patent 3,897,140). For safe solar viewing, choose Eclipsers from American Paper Optics-there are NO imitations.
The patented Eclipser lenses consist of 2-ml scratch resistant, double aluminized Solar Skreen® that filters 99.999% of the ultra-violet and infrared rays of the sun. American Paper Optics has sold over 22,000,000 eclipsers throughout the world during the last 12 years. American Paper Optics, the world's leading manufacturer of paper 3D glasses, is the first company to sell Solar Skreen® in paper glasses for safe eclipse observations.
American Paper Optics produced nearly 8 million Eclipsers for the African Eclipse of 2001 and over 5 million for the most-watched eclipse in history, the 1999 European Eclipse. Organizations such as Coca-Cola(r) and the NASA/Goddard Space Flight Center distributed Eclipsers to planetariums, schools, and observatories throughout Europe and Africa for the last two eclipse observations.
The next total eclipse of the sun occurs on December 4, 2002. (Click Here to See Maps). The eclipse path begins at sunrise in the South Atlantic and extends across southern Africa moving eastward across the Indian Ocean where it terminates in southern Australia at sunset. The best viewing in Africa lies between Beitbridge in Zimbabwe and Massingir in Mozambique while the best observation areas in Australia occurs midway at Woomera and eastward to the end of the eclipse track. Most of southern Africa and all of Australia will experience at least a partial eclipse. **
After manufacturing over 20,000,000 paper 3D glasses for National Geographic Magazine's 3D viewing of Mars, we are confident we can meet any production requirement. Since American Paper Optics is the factory, we can assure quality control of the Eclipser glasses manufactured to the highest safety standards, delivered on time, and at competitive prices.
Eclipsers are spectacular for sales and premiums at schools, planetariums, science centers, and retailers. For greater advertising impact, we can customize your Eclipsers with logos, copy, or messages. Choose from hot neon colors with your logo custom imprinted on the temples or a special offer printed on our unique detachable coupons. Give us a call, fax, or email, and we will help you design the best Eclipsers for your specific promotion.
