uvex
German eye-protection expertise since 1926
uvex is a German family-owned manufacturer of personal protective equipment with roots in optics — and eye protection remains the heart of the brand. Since it was founded in Fürth in 1926, uvex has specialised in shielding the eyes from particles, splashes, sparks and UV radiation without compromising on vision or wearer comfort. The name uvex stands for "ultra violet excluded".
supravision coating
uvex's in-house supravision coatings produce lenses that are scratch-resistant on the outside and anti-fog on the inside at the same time — clear vision through temperature changes and a longer service life.
UV400 as standard
The safety glasses filter out harmful UV radiation up to 400 nanometres — UV400 protection built in even in clear lenses, not just tinted ones.
Comfort that keeps them on
With model ranges such as Pheos, i-vo and Astrospec, uvex focuses on lightweight, metal-free frames, soft contact surfaces and a wide panoramic field of view.
