Coverguard: Premium Protection for Welding Professionals
A historical legacy serving welders
The history of Coverguard (formerly known as Euro Protection) is closely linked to the world of welding. It was in Lyon, in the late 1930s, that the first welding gloves and aprons were produced in their artisanal workshops. Building on this historical expertise, the family business has evolved into a major international player in Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), now protecting professionals in over 100 countries.
Professional expertise: "Safety Designer"
Defining itself as a “Safety Designer,” Coverguard places people and their skills at the heart of its mission. Through its signature “Every Skill Matters,” the brand is committed to designing innovative solutions that enhance the technical precision of every craftsman. To achieve this, product managers develop an in-depth understanding of field requirements by regularly collaborating with professional testers. This expertise is supported by rigorous standards: each year, ISO 9001 audits and more than 700 inspections are conducted to ensure equipment performance, leather quality, and material safety.
A complete range for welding and industry
Coverguard’s expertise is fully demonstrated in its ability to address the specific risks of welding. Through its specialized know-how (notably with the Weltek range), the brand offers highly technical solutions such as automatic, passive, and powered air welding helmets, as well as dedicated protective eyewear. The “Welding” catalog is particularly comprehensive, including protective jackets, sleeves, gaiters, aprons, and specialized gloves designed to withstand metal splatter and intense heat. All products are tested and certified by internationally recognized laboratories to ensure maximum safety.
