Staged situation versus reality
The world of uvex moves between these two conflicting areas. Excessive staging or idealisation is never our goal; we always look for exactly the right balance in order to implement and authentically communicate the brand values of uvex.
The laws of nature govern the basic requirements for the uvex image language. Positive and negative examples from similar situations are shown and explained below.
