Why UV Safety is Non-Negotiable
UV radiation is invisible but poses significant risks to eyes and skin. Proper protection is essential to prevent both short-term and long-term health damage in industrial environments.
Eye Protection
Prevents painful conditions like photokeratitis (welder's flash) and long-term damage such as cataracts and retinal damage.
Skin Protection
Shields skin from UV burns, premature aging, and reduces the risk of developing skin cancer from occupational exposure.
Regulatory Compliance
Ensures your operations meet stringent health and safety standards, protecting your workforce and your business from liability.

Frequently Asked Questions
Your safety questions, answered by our experts.
What does the UV400 rating mean?
UV400 protection is the highest level of protection for eyewear. It means the lenses are capable of blocking nearly 100 percent of UV rays, including UVA, UVB, and UVC radiation with wavelengths up to 400 nanometers. This ensures your eyes are completely shielded from harmful radiation.
Do I need protection from reflected UV light?
Yes, absolutely. Many surfaces, especially metals like aluminum and stainless steel, can reflect a significant amount of UV radiation. This reflected light can be just as harmful as direct exposure. This is why full-coverage gear like face shields and proper workplace design are critical.
How often should I replace my safety gear?
Safety equipment should be replaced immediately if any damage, such as deep scratches on glasses or cracks in a face shield, is visible. Even without visible damage, materials can degrade over time with prolonged UV exposure. We recommend a scheduled replacement every 12-24 months for gear used regularly.
