Kirk & Kirk Partners With Luxe-Lab for North American Distribution

Kirk & Kirk has announced Luxe-Lab will now distribute their Vivarium and Solarium collections in the U.S. and Canada.

The British company, launched at Silmo 2014, have already made an impact in the optical market winning the Newcomer Award at Hall Of Frames, voted by Swiss and German opticians, and also a Silver Award at The London Design Awards, a multi-discipline design program.

Opticians recognized as accredited resellers of Kirk & Kirk will be able to order direct from Luxe Lab to reduce delivery time and save on transportation costs.

Luxe-Lab is the company of Richard Wilhelm, longtime friend of Jason Kirk.

Kirk & Kirk will show their collection for the first time in the US at Vision Expo.
