Our process
One process, two routes — the same professional standard
Assessment and consulting always come from us. Together we then define the right route: a mobile optician on your site, or care through our partner optician network. Manufacturing always happens in our Swiss workshop — and the eyewear is always handed over by a qualified optician.
- 01
Assessment
We walk your workplaces and record hazards, visual demands and wearing conditions.
- 02
Consulting
For every role we recommend the right protection class, frame and coating — documented to standard.
- 03
Define the route
Larger sites are served on site by Unico individual industry; smaller teams and individuals through our partner optician network.
- 04
Vision test & fitting
Refraction, centration and frame fitting — on your site or at a network optician, to one identical professional standard.
- 05
Production
Prescription safety eyewear made in our own Swiss workshop — with lenses from Optiswiss exclusively, including logo marking.
- 06
Handover & service
Handover is always done by an optician — with final inspection, fit check and instruction. Then: repairs, spare parts and reorders.
Services
A ready solution for every hurdle in eye protection
We don't start with the product — we start with what costs you time.
Your situation
“Vision tests mean appointments, travel and downtime?”
On-site vision testing
A whole shift equipped in a single day.
Our mobile opticians come to your site with full measuring equipment. Testing, advice and fitting follow your shift plan — to the same professional standard as in a store. Where a nearby partner optician is the better route, we organise that just as reliably.
Your situation
“Unsure which protection each workplace requires?”
Workplace assessment
A clear equipment plan per role.
Together with your safety officer we walk the production floor, record hazards and define compliant eye and hearing protection for every workstation.
Your situation
“Employees spread across multiple sites?”
Partner optician network
Over 500 points of contact in Europe.
Where an on-site visit isn't practical, a nearby partner takes over. Same products, same terms, same documentation — wherever your people are.
Your situation
“Damaged eyewear means buying new every time?”
Repair service
Repair instead of replace.
Temples, nose pads, seals and lenses can be replaced individually. That extends the life cycle considerably, lowers cost and saves material. We only replace parts when we can vouch for the quality and the eyewear still complies with the standard and its conformity can be confirmed — otherwise we recommend a replacement.
Your situation
“New employees, same equipment — starting from scratch each time?”
Reordering in the customer shop
Your setup stays on file.
The customer shop holds your approved items, your terms and your order history. Reordering takes minutes, not days.
Your situation
“Eyewear is worn, but maintained incorrectly?”
Training & instruction
Acceptance instead of obligation.
Hands-on training for safety officers and teams: correct selection, proper wearing, cleaning and recognising when to replace.
Your situation
“Protective equipment nobody connects with your name?”
Logo printing & branding
Your company logo clearly visible on the safety eyewear.
We apply your company logo permanently and clearly visibly to the temple or frame — resistant to cleaning, sweat and industrial use, including compliant markings. It is more than a label: it is a message. Using first-class eye protection yourself and passing it on sends a visible signal for your safety culture — to employees, customers and partners.
Your situation
“Organising hearing protection separately?”
Hearing protection in the same visit
One appointment, two protection areas.
We take ear impressions during the same on-site visit: moulds, fitting and function checks alongside the vision test.
