Professional Safety Glasses
PPE and Effective Solutions for Eye Safety at Work
Work Glasses
Industrial safety glasses are essential devices for workplace safety, designed to protect the eyes from impacts, dust, chemicals, and harmful radiation. All of our models comply with Regulation (EU) 2016/425 on Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and meet the UNI EN 166 standard, which defines resistance, protection, and optical quality standards. Protect your vision with reliable and certified devices.
Safety, precision, and comfort for your eyes at the workplace. In the work environment, eye protection is not just an accessory, but a real necessity. Work glasses are an essential tool to safeguard eye health in environments where dust, chemicals, impacts, or radiation can compromise vision. From mechanical workshops to chemical laboratories, from construction sites to metalworking plants, to workstations with laser or electrical technology: each sector presents specific risks that require suitable protective devices. The eyes are, in fact, among the most sensitive parts of the body and, at the front portion, also among the least naturally protected.

Why use certified work glasses?
In many work environments, the eyes are constantly exposed to potential risks. For this reason, the use of adequate protective glasses is not only recommended but often required by law.
The eyeball, although partially protected by the skull structure, has an extremely delicate exposed surface. It is this area, the most vulnerable, that can be subject to injuries caused by impacts, splinters, chemicals, or light radiation. Work glasses are designed to create a protective barrier while ensuring clear and comfortable vision.
Depending on the job and industry, you may encounter different types of hazards:
- Mechanical Risks
Dust, splinters, chips, metal or wood fragments can accidentally hit the eye during activities such as cutting, grinding, drilling, or welding.
✔ Glasses with impact-resistant lenses and side shields are essential to prevent injuries, corneal abrasions, or eye trauma.
- Chemical Risks
In laboratories, industrial plants, or during technical maintenance, the eye may come into contact with irritating vapors, acids, solvents, oils, or splashes of corrosive liquids.
✔ In these cases, closed-face goggles or protective face shields are used to ensure an airtight barrier that protects the entire ocular and periorbital area.
- Optical Risks
Exposure to UV (ultraviolet) rays, infrared rays, lasers, or electric arcs can cause retinal damage or even severe thermal injuries.
✔ For these environments, the use of specific filtering glasses, certified according to regulations, with lenses offering selective protection based on the harmful wavelength is necessary.
Safety Glasses
The main types of visual risks
Impact-Resistant Glasses
Made with durable materials such as polycarbonate, these glasses are designed to protect the eyes from shards, dust, sparks, or high-speed debris. They provide an effective barrier against accidental impacts, making them particularly suitable for work in industries such as construction, welding, and mechanics.
UV Cutting Glasses
Designed to protect the eyes from ultraviolet rays emitted during operations such as welding or plasma cutting, these glasses effectively filter harmful UV radiation, preventing retinal damage and discomfort such as redness or photophobia. Ideal for industrial environments and mechanical workshops.
Chemical Risk Glasses
Equipped with airtight seals and materials resistant to corrosive agents, these glasses provide full protection against chemical splashes, irritating vapors, or hazardous fumes. Essential in laboratories, pharmaceutical industries, or environments exposed to chemical products.
Laser safety glasses
Specifically designed to shield the wavelengths emitted by lasers, these glasses provide high-level visual protection during the use of laser devices in medical, technical, or industrial fields. Each model is certified for a specific type of laser and ensures high attenuation of light intensity.
