uvex professional safety equipment for the construction industry
Around 327,000 companies are currently operating in Germany’s construction sector. Of these, approximately 23 percent operate in the mainstream construction industry and 77 percent in the finishing trade. A large proportion of these businesses are small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), but a number of large companies are also emerging.
Regardless of their size, all the companies have one thing in common: occupational accidents, occupational illnesses and work-related health hazards are always a possibility for construction workers. Occupational safety officers, safety engineers and other similar roles are responsible for minimising these risks, every single day.
uvex is here to help!

With over 4,000 reported cases, skin cancer is the number 1 occupational disease in Germany.
