CREATING BETTER WORKING DAYS TOGETHER!
We create better working days for you
Image Wear is a Finnish family business. We have manufactured workwear already since 1959. Operating on a family-owned basis from the start, our company has grown into a forerunner in the field, manufacturing almost 5000 different products and operating in several countries. The Image Wear group includes the parent company Image Wear Oy and the subsidiary Image Wear AS operating in Estonia. We employ directly almost 300 professionals in the field - around 120 in Finland and more than 150 in Estonia.
However, we have not become the market leader by coincidence. We make sure our professionalism is top-of-the-art and we help our clients succeed. We are attentive to the world around us and utilize the latest textile and clothing technology for our clients.
Since it is our job to help you improve your work, we are committed to being number one in the workwear industry. We invest in quality and sustainability - both in our products and operations. Our R&D unit in Tampere works closely with all our clients, because the users of our clothes know best, what is ultimately important in workwear. Our task is to listen to our clients and understand their everyday life.

Over 60 years of Finnish family entrepreneurship
Image Wear is a Finnish family business with more than 60 years of tradition in the production of workwear. The roots of our company are in Laitosto founded by Eero Sarin in 1959. In 1987, Pekka and Auli Vettenranta bought the Laitosto business. The current name Image Wear Oy was introduced in 2006. The Vettenranta children, Kati and Janne, have continued the strong development of the operations along the path set by their parents, cherishing the family business as it truly deserves.
Our quality and environmental policy
Quality assurance is a key part of our operations, and we follow the ISO9001:2015 quality system.
