SIZE MATTERS
One size does not fit all - Get help finding PPE that fits
We understand that when it comes to personal protective equipment (PPE) one size does not fit all.
It may seem obvious, but correctly sized PPE can help avoid accidents, reduce discomfort and increase productivity. If employees find their PPE uncomfortable to wear chances are they won't wear it.
uvex have developed a range of solutions, ensuring something for everyone.

COST IN USE
How to make savings when buying PPE
Ever considered the real cost in use of your PPE? Better quality safety products can help save you money in the long run.
As a premium brand, uvex is often perceived as expensive, however, we can actually save you money - through high-quality resource-saving products, increasing compliance, and providing education for your workforce.
FEMALE PPE
Empowering women with perfectly fitted PPE
As advocates for gender inclusivity, we understand that a ‘one size fits all’ approach to PPE is simply not adequate.
The traditional gender divide in the workplace is gradually fading
Not only is the rate of female employment at 72.4%*, a mere 0.3% behind its record high in 2019, the number of women venturing into industries that were once considered exclusively male domains is also on the increase.
