Why genuine, active structure is unbeatable

One glance at the warehouse is enough to immediately see how a company operates. Clearly marked storage locations, clearly defined walkways, structured shelving systems and transparent inventories are signs of professionalism. Unclear storage, temporary solutions and "accumulated" clutter, on the other hand, cost time, money and nerves. In times of digitalisation, automation and "flexible processes", order is sometimes dismissed as old-fashioned. But the opposite is true: classic, consistently implemented warehouse order is the basis for modern warehouse management. Order does not just mean "tidy". It means: clear storage location labelling, defined processes for goods receipt and dispatch, clear responsibilities, clean documentation and systematic inventory management.

These principles have been proven for decades – long before buzzwords such as "chaotic warehouse" or "free space system" became popular. Order is not a trend. It is a craft.

Short supply chains

The German Supply Chain Due Diligence Act places high demands on transparency, control and responsibility along the supply chain. Airline uniforms in particular demonstrate that the simpler and shorter the supply chain, the better the compliance. "One-stop shop" uniform solutions reduce complexity, create clear responsibilities and facilitate risk analysis. Instead of many individual suppliers, there is a central contact person who coordinates and documents social and environmental standards. In addition, short supply chains – ideally with regional or European production – increase controllability and reduce risks with regard to human rights and environmental violations. At the same time, transport routes and emissions are reduced.

Conclusion: Integrated uniform solutions with short supply chains not only support compliance with supply chain legislation, but also strengthen sustainability, legal certainty and trust.

Comprehensive uniform management

In aviation, uniforms are much more than just functional workwear – they represent safety, precision and trust. They shape first impressions and convey a sense of reliability. Professional uniform management ensures that design, fit and quality meet the highest standards. A digital uniform management system works behind the scenes to ensure transparent processes, precise control of procurement and inventory, and reliable supply to crews – worldwide and across locations. Uniform management is more than just a fulfilment service.

At the same time, the emotional dimension plays a central role: uniforms accompany crew members for many hours and in demanding situations. High-quality materials, excellent fits and thoughtful design convey comfort, safety and pride – and strengthen identification with the airline.

Maximum Data Security Through Local Servers

To further strengthen the protection of sensitive information, our company relies entirely on local data storage. All business data — from internal documents and customer information to system backups — is stored exclusively on our own in-house servers.

By deliberately avoiding the use of cloud services, we maintain full control over all data flows and significantly reduce external access risks. At the same time, our internal IT infrastructure enables continuous monitoring and rapid response whenever security measures need to be adjusted or expanded. With this approach, we ensure that the data of our partners, and customers is safeguarded at all times.

Sustainable heat from the server rack

Our servers are energy-intensive and continuously generate heat during operation. The electricity for this comes from hydropower or as surplus electricity from private PV systems purchased from a local energy community. In traditional data centers, this energy is cooled at great expense and dissipated to the outside. In our case, however, the heat generated is used to heat an entire floor. This creates tangible added value from digital performance.

The benefits for the environment and our company are obvious:

1. Reduced energy consumption: Less external heating energy means lower operating costs and significantly lower CO₂ emissions.

2. Efficient dual use of energy: The electrical energy for our IT infrastructure now serves two purposes: computing power and heat supply.

3. Sustainable corporate strategy: Sustainability begins in our own building. The heat from the server cabinet is only a small step, but it is a step in the right direction and brings us closer to our big goal.

Taking measurement made easy

A personal fitting is still the best prerequisite for a fitting uniform. However, large distances between our client and us do not always make this possible.

Under these conditions, we have created an online tool that makes taking measurements easy. Short videos show how and where the required measurements can be taken and then entered in a data field. All data is transmitted - in compliance with all data protection regulations - and with the support of an AI system, which is based on all our experience, the most suitable uniform size for you is determined. Of course, the determined size is finally checked for plausibility by an expert. Try it out. Here you can go to our Measurement-Tool.

From private rooftops to our operations: green energy from EVA

More and more households are turning to photovoltaic systems, making an important contribution to the energy transition. Often, however, more electricity is generated than can be consumed at home.

The regional energy cooperative EVA (Energie Vision Alpbachtal) has a solution for this: We buy surplus solar power from private system operators and use it directly in our company. In this way, we secure a sustainable energy supply, support private producers with fair remuneration and at the same time increase the share of renewable energies in our everyday lives.

Our goal is to take responsibility – for a clean, decentralised and future-oriented energy supply. Together with committed citizens, we are making the energy vision a reality step by step.

New HPE Servers for Enhanced Performance and Future-Readiness

We have upgraded our IT infrastructure with a new server generation from Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE). This powerful, future-ready infrastructure significantly enhances the performance, stability, and flexibility of our IT systems.

The new HPE servers impress with high computing power, modern virtualization capabilities, and efficient resource usage. They enable the processing of large amounts of data, faster delivery of our digital services, and reliable support for complex applications.

With this investment in cutting-edge server technology, we ensure that our IT infrastructure meets the growing demands of the digital world and supports innovation and growth in the long term.

The fact that a partnership with TRANEMO, a leading manufacturer of personal protective equipment (PPE), came about may seem surprising at first glance, but in the end it is a logical consequence. In almost all airside areas of airports, EN ISO 20471-certified high-visibility vests must be worn to protect personal safety. However, depending on the time of year or destination, it is practical if a high-visibility vest is also integrated into a lightweight weather protection jacket. Experienced air ambulance pilots confirm that this jacket is the best softshell they have ever worn.

But the partnership with TRANEMO advanced workwear has more to offer, namely a complete range of PPE (personal protective equipment) in all safety categories (I to III) and for a wide variety of industries.

NEW: The uniform trousers that adapt to the flight level!

Based on our years of working with uniforms for airlines and feedback from pilots, we know: Before the crew takes their seats in the cockpit, the belt is loosened and possibly the top button on the waistband is undone. The reason is provided by flight physiology: At an altitude of 30,000 to 40,000 feet, the pressure in the cabin still corresponds to an altitude of 6,000 to 8,000 feet which causes the abdominal girth to increase by about 4 cm. That's a whole clothing size!

We now solve this inconvenience with uniform pants that have a stretch waistband that adjusts to changes in the body and a matching leather belt with the same function. The pants fit during the preflight check just as well as during the cruise section and then also during the engine shutdown and the post-flight inspection, when the aircraft is already back in the parking position. The uniform trousers with stretch waistband guarantee a constant and comfortable fit. More than ever before, pilots can concentrate on their task without being distracted by a constricting waistband. The uniform pants with stretch waistband thus contribute significantly to the safety and efficiency of flight operations.
