Our history

Baby-boom generation

Christian Dalloz  Christian Dalloz Sunoptics  Dalloz Creations

The company now called Dalloz Creations is older than it looks: our history dates back to 1957.

As a child prodigy – known as Christian Dalloz at the time – we filed our first Cridalon™ patent in the late 1970s. And we’ve been growing ever since.

In 1996, when we reached maturity, we were called Christian Dalloz Sunoptics and were part of the international Bacou-Dalloz group. With this group, we helped set the standards for protection on a global level.

Like so many baby-boomers, we enjoyed the bumper years up until 2000 and then, well into our 40s, the crisis struck.

When regaining our independence (2006), we decided to focus on high-end productions. Today, in the prime of our life, we are helping define the standards of luxury, fashion and sport for high-end eyewear.
