About Labpads
We believe our edging / glazing edger pads are about the best in the business, even better than the top branded pads.
We keep it very simple:
- Superhydrophobic should cover all the jobs in the lab
- Our Blue Cut should cover about 92% of the jobs in a typical lab and 100% if used with a SIP
- Finally, we have our budget range, a quality pad used in hundreds of labs around the world
Following customer demand, we have grown our product range to include a wide range of lab and showroom consumables and test room accessories.
Background
Some of you may know me from my many years at Specsavers and then my time with Birmingham Optical. Using my contacts and experience, I spent a great deal of time researching for the best quality and most economical blocking pads and consumables. I believe I have found them and am pleased to offer them on our website.
At Labpads, we grew the business by word of mouth and have never advertised in any media. It was by offering the best pads, at the best price, with the best service that we grew our business.
We have a very simple pricing structure and always give FREE delivery regardless of order value.
Labpads supply edger pads for most of the common lab edgers including all Nidek machines and the SE1. We are an official supplier for Visionix, Briot and Weco edgers consumables and pads. We also supply pads for the Essilor edgers including the Neksia, Mr Blue and Mr Orange together with Huvitz brands of edgers. All our edger pads are correctly sized for each brand and edger block, we do not have ”one size fits all”.
In 2024 we formed an agreement with Visionix to supply genuine and authentic consumables including blocks, canvas pads, drill bits and a wide range of consumable products.
We have been able to expand our product portfolio and now sell a much wider range of consumables including screws, nose pads, specialised cloths, hand tools Threadlock, UV and coloured tints, edger blocks and much, much more.
To help even more, no credit card is required for account customers. You can order on account and, subject to our agreement, we can open an account for you.
FREE shipping regardless of order value

- All orders are sent out for next day delivery using either DHL courier or Royal Mail signed for service
- We do not compromise on quality to reach a price point; we believe we sell the best edger pads for the job
General Optics – USA
In May 2022, we forged a very strong partnership with General Optics who are a top class multi-million dollar optical company based in Miami, Florida in the United States. This increased relationship has meant that we have greater access to huge stocks held in our European warehouse and have a direct input into production and processing and the wide range of products manufactured by General Optics.
General Optics
Labpads is now the official distributor in the UK for General Optics range of edger pads. This means that as well as having large stocks held in the UK, we have quick delivery shipments from our huge European warehouse.
With this relationship in place, we can work with wholesalers, suppliers, and distributors in the UK to produce their own brand edger pads. Feel free to contact us if you are a supplier or distributor and would like your own brand of edger pads.
Please browse our website, knowing your orders will be looked after in the most professional and caring manner by the Labpads team.
Kind regards,
Steve O’Dwyer
