The right choice is driven by your industry requirements.

ENGEL Workwear is a Danish family-owned company with more than 90 years in workwear. The brand has grown from a small manufacturer in Herning into one of Europe’s most respected suppliers of professional workwear.

The Galaxy range is ENGEL’s flagship for trades and industry. The collection is defined by a two-tone design that reads modern and professional, while being built for maximum durability. Galaxy garments use a polyester-cotton blend that delivers durability without sacrificing comfort. Stretch panels in strategic places ensure freedom of movement, and reinforced knee pockets take standard EN 14404-approved knee pads.

If you work in demanding environments with a risk of heat and flame, the Safety+ range is the right choice. This collection is certified to EN ISO 11612, EN 1149-5 and EN ISO 20471, meeting the requirements for use in oil and gas and other heavy industry. Safety+ uses inherently flame-retardant fibres that keep their protective properties for the full life of the garment. The range comes in both hi-vis and standard colour variants.

The X-treme range is built for the active tradesperson who needs maximum flexibility. With 4-way stretch in the main fabric and an ergonomic cut, these garments offer freedom of movement rarely seen in workwear with comparable durability. X-treme is popular with carpenters, electricians and plumbers who combine physical work with the need to look presentable.

ENGEL also holds a strong position in greener solutions. The Extend range is made from recycled polyester and organic cotton, meeting the ever-tighter sustainability requirements in public procurement. Every Extend garment is OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certified, guaranteeing it is free of harmful chemicals. For businesses with ambitious environmental targets, this is an attractive option.

ENGEL’s size range is among the broadest in the industry, with standard sizes from XS to 6XL and the option of special orders. The fit is typically Scandinavian, a touch roomier than southern European brands, with good length in the torso and sleeves. We recommend ordering sample garments in several sizes to find the optimal fit for your team.

When it comes to branding, ENGEL garments suit every method. The consistent fabric quality gives strong embroidery results, and the smooth surfaces work well for both print and DTF. ENGEL also provides its own branding-zone guide showing recommended logo placements on each garment. At Universe Profile we have broad experience branding the ENGEL range and can help you find the best solution.

On price, ENGEL sits in the mid-tier of the premium segment. A pair of Galaxy work trousers typically costs between 800 and 1,det nedre sjiktet depending on the model, while Safety+ garments sit somewhat higher given the specialised materials. As our direct partner, ENGEL consistently delivers good value, with especially strong reviews for durability and fit.

Our recommendation: start by identifying the requirements for your industry. Need certified protective wear? Go for Safety+. Working in the trades and need flexibility? X-treme is right. Want a solid all-round option with a professional look? Galaxy is the way to go. Whichever you choose, you get a proven product from a supplier that puts quality first.
