Tradition and Vision
The Uvex Winter Group was founded in 1926 by Philipp M Winter. Right from the start his entrepreneurial aims were clear; his first business cast stated, "Specialty: safety goggles of all kind."

During the '50s, a cooperation with top class international athletes was initiated and intensified, with an emphasis on skiing and alpine sports: In 1952 Winter Olympic Games, numerous international ski races were equipped by Uvex with. This cooperation was later extended to the sports of cycling and motorcycle racing.

However, it was in the '60s that saw the beginning of the Uvex Era. Uvex - the short version of quality characteristics of 'UltraViolet EXcluded', was developed as a visual trademark. All sports and leisure products were then distributed under the Uvex trademark while the industrial safety division retained the original name 'Winter'.

In line with its motto of 'Protecting People', the first humble production of safety goggles has now grown to include top quality sunglasses, optical glasses, helmets and other related accessories essential for the safety of an active sporty lifestyle. today, the brand Uvex is synonymous throughout Europe for quality and style.

Pound i-ware
Pound i-ware Pte Ltd was established in May 2004 by Jenny Bose and Cellena Lim.

Having traveled extensively throughout the last two decades and witnessing our own families' growing involvement in outdoor sports, we realised the need for high performance sports-related accessories that not only looked good but could provide excellent all-round protection.

Hence began our mission: the hunt for such sports products that combined fashion and function for an active, outdoor lifestyle.

With this in mind, we sought and secured the sole distribution rights for a leading, established German brand of lifestyle products -- Uvex

In line with Uvex's own motto of 'Protecting People', our goal is to extend this philosophy throughout South East Asia by making top quality, stylish Uvex products available and affordable for all, thus keeping true to Pound i-ware's own mission, of achieving fashion with function for men, women and children alike.
