People with individual health needs have very special requirements for personal protective equipment. Together with our partners, we meet these requirements with prescription safety spectacles, otoplastics and orthopaedic safety footwear – the rights solutions for the perfect fit.
Personal protective equipment – additional information
Investing in PPE which is made with a specific application in mind – customised protective eyewear, hearing protection or protective footwear – ensures that the personal protective equipment fits perfectly as well as offering optimum wearer comfort, meaning wearers will actively enjoy using the product. Additionally, we also cater to individual needs, for example with shoes which offer a high level of comfort for wide feet or for medical issues such as diabetes. PPE from uvex is adapted to your employees’ requirements through collaborating with specialist optometrists, orthopaedic specialists and qualified experts.
Orthopaedic orders
Employees that require orthopedic safety footwear due to health reasons, are not permitted to replace insoles with their own orthotic insoles for the reason that safety footwear needs to be certified as a complete unit and modications could alter the performance of the boot/shoes. Orthotic safety footwear is available and therefore, employers should make the appropriate provisions.
