For construction experts, lab heroes and machine tamers — for doers! At the heart of occupational safety are the people who require the best-possible PPE for their everyday work. In this blog, we would like to showcase the wide range of areas in which occupational safety plays a crucial role. What needs to be considered? What are the dangers that the employees must be protected against and what criteria does optimal PPE need to fulfil?

We will answer frequently asked questions and share our expert knowledge, always with a focus on what really matters: the people for whom we develop our occupational safety products.
