Legacy meets innovation
More than workwear providers, alsico pushes boundaries and engineers clothing that redefines excellence
alsico stands as one of the world’ s largest workwear providers, with nearly 100 years of experience and a turnover of around € 300 million. Founded in Belgium in 1934 by Leopold Aelvoet, the company’ s reputation for innovation was cemented by Leopold’ s son-in-law Gaston Siau, who introduced specialist garments and expanded production globally. Today, fourth-generation leaders Gauthier and Vincent Siau continue this legacy of forward-thinking growth.
What sets alsico apart is its demand driven workwear model and a continual search for innovation and sustainably focused improvements to its garments. Delivering on a promise that‘ Our Performance Protects Yours’, the business regards its garments as ways to enable its clients’ growth, by ensuring their teams are safe and comfortable. From healthcare to electrification and contamination control, alsico can supply garments to all workwear environments. As Vincent Siau, Managing Director at alsico EU, explains, a dedication to understanding each clients’ needs is at the heart of its operation.“ We must find the balance of performance and price. Not over-engineering, or simplifying, but understanding challenges and the hazards workers face.
