Discover how our expertise contributes to a safer workplace in the most demanding industries and applications.
Firefighters and intervention teams
Emergency services never know in advance what situation they will find themselves in. Effective protection that is also comfortable to wear in every situation is of vital importance.
Electric arc protection
The discharge of heat energy released during an electric arc causes severe burns. In addition to wearing the right PPE, an understanding and knowledge of the risks is essential.
Police protection
Personal protection equipment for police and intervention services. From tactical work boots to bodycameras.
Taking care for healthcare
Coronavirus has turned today's life upside down. PPE for emergency workers is now more indispensable than ever. Conducting proper market research is crucial.
Making a safe port
In a dock environment, the staff of different port operators work together at one site. Communication and a single-minded focus on safety are key to port safety.
Safe entry into confined spaces
Poor accessibility for emergency workers and lack of ventilation make working in confined spaces dangerous. Entering a confined space begins with good organization and coordination.
