uvex protects people and the planet

uvex’s corporate mission of "protecting people" is more relevant than ever!

uvex’s commitment to protecting people also includes responsibility with respect to society and the environment. As a family business, sustainability has been at the forefront of the company‘s thoughts and actions for many years.

uvex has set itself ambitious goals in terms of the environment, the economy and society. In its manufacturing facilities, uvex is working hard to increase energy efficiency and doing everything it can to become carbon-neutral in the near future.

High quality standards for products are combined with the development of recycling concepts and the use of bio-based materials. The durability and long service life of uvex products helps to reduce waste and conserve resources.

To communicate these numerous measures, a label concept “protecting planet” has been developed that describes the uvex group’s sustainability projects with compelling statements such as;

• by using recycled material
• by not using harmful substances
• by reducing waste
• by saving energy
• by using bio-based material
• by creating durable products
• by reducing C02 emissions
• by using environmentally friendly packaging

The uvex sustainability label protecting planet can be found on products and their packaging, as well as at trade fair stands or in uvex group catalogues, for example. With this approach, uvex wants to not only emphasise its commitment to these areas of sustainability, but also raise awareness of environmentally friendly and socially responsible business practices.
