Log in to access trade discountsThe armourU Kanchenjunga is a 22g ultra-lightweight safety spectacle designed for professionals who wear eye protection for an entire shift. At 22g, it is significantly lighter than standard safety glasses and engineered to eliminate the pressure points on the nose bridge and ears that cause PPE non-compliance on long-duration tasks.
The optical Class 1 polycarbonate lens carries permanent anti-fog and anti-scratch coatings on both sides, so operatives moving between cold stores and warm work areas maintain clear vision without stopping to wipe or adjust their eyewear. The clear TPE nose rest distributes weight evenly across the nose bridge, while nonslip arms secured with stainless steel screws maintain a stable fit during driving, picking and assembly work.
Certified to EN166 FTKN and EN170 2C-1.2, it provides low energy impact protection alongside anti-scratch and anti-fog performance. The Kanchenjunga is the correct choice for warehouse, logistics, light assembly and visitor protection where comfort-driven compliance is the primary operational requirement. Supplied with a recycled polyester pouch made from two 1-litre plastic water bottles and a recycled paper box, it also supports site-level sustainability reporting.
✓ 22g featherweight construction eliminates nose bridge and ear pressure points during 8-hour shifts

✓ Optical Class 1 polycarbonate lens delivers undistorted panoramic vision for driving, picking and precision tasks
✓ Clear TPE nose rest distributes weight evenly across the nose bridge to prevent slipping and discomfort
✓ Nonslip arms secured with stainless steel screws maintain a stable fit during active movement without ear fatigue
✓ Recycled polyester pouch and recycled paper box packaging supports site sustainability and ThinkGreen procurement commitments

Application Suitability Table - AEYKAN
| Application | Suitable | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| General warehouse and site eye protection | ✓ | F-rated low energy impact, Optical Class 1 |
| Logistics, delivery driving and vehicle operation | ✓ | Panoramic lens, lightweight for all-day driving wear |
| Light assembly and component handling | ✓ | Optical Class 1, anti-mist for close-focus tasks |
| Site visitor eye protection | ✓ | Lightweight and comfortable for short-duration visitors |
| Humid environments and cold store operations | ✓ | Permanent dual-sided anti-fog coating confirmed |
| Highways and infrastructure inspection | ✓ | Impact and general site protection suitable |
| Dusty general environments | ✓ | K-rated anti-scratch coating protects lens clarity |
| High-energy impact tasks (grinding, chiselling) | X | F-rated low energy only; use B or A-rated eyewear |
| Chemical splash requiring full facial seal | X | Spectacles do not provide a sealed perimeter; use sealed goggles |
| High-pressure fluid or chemical jet | X | Requires sealed goggle with appropriate chemical resistance |
| Molten metal splash | X | No molten metal rating; requires specialist protection |
| Welding operations | X | No welding filter rating |
| Laser operations | X | No laser protection rating |
Usage Guide:
Before Use
- Inspect lenses for cracks, scratches or coating damage before each use and discard any spectacle showing these defects.
- Confirm the task hazard level is within scope: these are F-rated low energy impact spectacles.
- For tasks involving high-energy impact (grinding, chiselling, high-speed cutting), a higher impact-rated product is required.
- For tasks requiring a full chemical or fine-dust facial seal, a sealed goggle is the appropriate product.
- Clean the TPE nose rest and temple arms before donning to maintain hygiene and grip.
During Use
- The nonslip arms and TPE nose rest are designed to maintain fit during active movement.
- If the spectacle shifts during use, stop and refit before continuing.
- The permanent anti-fog coating reduces condensation but does not eliminate fogging under extreme conditions.
- Do not wipe lenses with abrasive materials as this will degrade the coatings over time.
After Use
- Clean lenses with the supplied recycled polyester pouch or a soft lint-free cloth.
- Do not use solvents, abrasive cloths or paper towels.
- Store in the supplied pouch away from direct sunlight.
- Replace when lenses show visible scratching, crazing or coating breakdown that impairs vision.
What does EN166 FTKN mean?
F confirms low energy impact resistance,
T confirms resistance to extreme temperatures,
K confirms the anti-scratch coating meets the EN166 standard
and N confirms the anti-mist coating meets the EN166 standard.
This is the correct specification for warehouse, logistics, light assembly and general site tasks where low-energy impact is the primary risk. For higher-energy impact tasks such as grinding or chiselling, a B or A-rated product is required.
Why does the 22g weight matter for PPE compliance?
Standard safety glasses typically weigh between 28g and 35g. Over an 8-hour shift, heavier frames create sustained pressure on the nose bridge and behind the ears, causing discomfort that leads operatives to remove their eyewear. At 22g, the Kanchenjunga reduces that pressure substantially, making it significantly more likely that operatives maintain eyewear compliance for a full shift. For H&S managers dealing with non-compliance, the weight reduction is a practical intervention rather than a specification detail.
What does permanent anti-fog on both sides of the lens mean in practice?
Most budget anti-fog coatings are applied to the inner lens surface only. The Kanchenjunga carries the permanent anti-fog coating on both sides, which means it resists fogging whether condensation forms from body heat on the inner surface or from external temperature differentials on the outer surface. This is particularly relevant for operatives moving between cold storage areas and ambient warehouses, or between vehicle cabins and outdoor environments.
Is this suitable for driving?
Yes. The panoramic polycarbonate lens provides a wide unobstructed field of vision, the nonslip arms maintain a stable fit during vehicle movement and the 22g weight avoids the ear and nose fatigue that causes drivers to remove eyewear during long routes. The EN170 2C-1.2 Class 1 UV filter confirms the clear lens meets the optical distortion standard for driving tasks. The dual-sided anti-mist coating also helps maintain visibility when transitioning between vehicle cabin and external environments.
What is the sustainability benefit of the packaging?
The supplied pouch is made from recycled polyester manufactured from two 1-litre plastic water bottles, and the box is recycled paper. For sites operating under ISO 14001 environmental management or CMT's ThinkGreen procurement programme, specifying products with sustainable packaging contributes to site-level CO2 and waste reduction reporting.
What is CMT ThinkGreen and how does this product support it?
CMT ThinkGreen is CMT Group's sustainability programme, built around reducing environmental impact across the supply chain through lower-carbon products, electric vehicle deliveries and sustainable packaging. The Kanchenjunga contributes directly: the recycled polyester pouch is manufactured from two 1-litre plastic water bottles, diverting plastic from waste, and the box is recycled paper. For sites operating under ISO 14001 environmental management standards or clients with net-zero supply chain commitments, specifying ThinkGreen-aligned products provides measurable, reportable progress. CMT Group is on track to meet its Net-Zero 50 objectives and regularly introduces new sustainable product lines to help construction and logistics operations reduce their procurement footprint without compromising on safety standards.
Why buy safety eyewear from CMT Group?
PPE eyewear non-compliance is almost always a comfort problem. Operatives remove glasses that hurt, not glasses that protect. CMT Group stocks the armourU eyewear range with next-day delivery on orders placed by 7pm online, meaning replacing uncomfortable spectacles that your team are removing on site is a same-day decision. For logistics and warehouse operations managing eyewear across large workforces, the EDGE procurement portal provides per-site product controls, ensuring operatives can only order approved eyewear at pre-agreed rates, eliminating both unauthorised substitution and price disputes.
Founded in 2010 and now the UK's largest independent site equipment supplier, CMT Group holds BSIF Registered Safety Supplier, CHAS Elite and Constructionline Gold accreditations. As a BSIF member, every product CMT supplies is backed by the assurance that it meets genuine certified safety standards, giving H&S managers confidence that the eyewear on their sites is the product on the specification sheet.
