The optrel group at a glance

Every year we deliver well over one hundred thousand occupational safety products. And we are not a mass producer. Almost every product is unique. Tailored to the needs of the customer.
We are still shaped by the special culture of a family business. Strong values and sustainable action make us a reliable partner.

In everything we do, our customers and us are united by a common goal. We want to sustainably improve their processes.
The start-up from back then has long since become a global player. The optrel group includes highly specialized companies such as optrel tec ag, in which the entire product development process is bundled. Our sales and logistics network spans the entire globe and is ensured by our sales companies optrel ag, optrel inc. and optrel sports ag. Wherever our customers are, we are close to them.
