About us

Rooted in optics since 1966

We are an owner-managed family business, which is now in its 2nd generation in the optical industry. Our family has been rooted in this industry since 1966. Today's company HELBRECHT optics was founded by the oldest of the three brothers Helbrecht (Helly). It all started in the classic way in a garage. Today, the company is jointly managed by the three Helbrecht brothers.

Many people know our company as the leading manufacturer / supplier of biker & motorcycle glasses. With the brand "Helly No.1 Bikereyes" our company has made a name for itself in the motorcycle industry worldwide. Our product range also includes sunglasses, sports glasses, protection & correction glasses as well as military goggles.

In addition, we also manufacture glasses for external labels and/or glasses under licence, some of which are also available directly from us. In addition, we offer other relevant trade brands at attractive prices. In order to guarantee prompt delivery, we keep up to 400,000 items in stock during the season.

Adjacent to our specialist trade partners and opticians, we also offer the end consumer the opportunity to purchase our glasses directly from us online. As we were one of the few companies in the world to specialise in individual sports and safety glazing at a very early stage, we also offer, in addition to "normal" corrective glasses in prescription, custom-made sports or motorcycle glasses in prescription directly from us - of course: MADE IN GERMANY! Our team of opticians will be happy to advise you here.

Against the trend

Contrary to the general trend of many former German producers, we as a manufacturer have for decades worked single-mindedly to develop, process and/or refine our products in Germany.

For example, custom-made products in PRESCRIPTION and glasses with the designation "PREMIUM" are produced exclusively in our own factory grinding shop in Hilden / Germany. The lenses processed in our factory are almost exclusively purchased from German manufacturers of spectacle lenses (Video: FACTORY GRINDERY).

All services such as websites & advertising material (flyers, catalogues, etc.) are created directly in our company (Video: MEDIA DEPARTMENT).
