UVEX: Experience and expertise

Uvex is a German family company now in its third generation. Established in 1926, when Philipp M. Winter handcrafted an advanced pair of safety glasses in a small workshop in Poppenreuth, Germany, demand became high for these safety glasses and by the 1930s, he was supplying protective glasses and goggles to professional athletes. By the 1960s, Uvex was known as a chief developer of head-to-toe safety equipment, including eyewear and protective head gear. The name Uvex was derived from “uv-ex” meaning “ultraviolet excluded”. Since then, Uvex has developed its helmet technologies, maintaining an emphasis on the strength of German engineering and manufacturing, as well as the consistent exploration of new technologies. All products designed and manufactured by Uvex undergo rigorous assessments in the Uvex testing centres in Germany and Europe to guarantee each one meets strict safety standards.
