How Lautus Vide improved safety with better workwear
LAUTUS VIDE specializes in waste management across Latvia, providing essential services to households and businesses while promoting a cleaner environment. Sustainability, efficiency, and employee well-being are at the core of their operations. With 43 employees using workwear provided by Lindström, the company places a strong emphasis on both environmental responsibility and workplace safety.
Staff at Lautus Vide start their workday at 5:00 AM – often in darkness – and work in environments where visibility and comfort are crucial. Waste collection involves physical tasks, exposure to changing weather conditions, and the need to navigate busy streets and hazardous areas. In these demanding conditions, high-quality, high-visibility workwear isn’t just an option but a necessary prerequisite for keeping the team safe and productive.
Before partnering with Lindström, we purchased, washed, and maintained workwear ourselves, which required significant time and resources. Despite our efforts, the clothing did not always meet the necessary standards, and employees had to take care of cleaning and maintaining it themselves.
There was no reliable system in place to ensure that every employee had clean, standardised, and job-appropriate workwear. Partnering with Lindström has changed that. Now, the team at Lautus Vide can focus on their work without worrying about maintaining their garments or meeting safety standards—everything is taken care of.
In our industry, high-visibility clothing is a safety element we can’t overlook. Collaborating with Lindström gives us confidence that all employees are not only visible in darkness and hazardous work areas but are also dressed in unified, professional, and comfortable workwear tailored to both the weather and job-specific requirements.
In addition to always having ready-to-use workwear on hand, Lautus Vide no longer has to worry about washing or repairing the textiles. Garments are consistently clean, properly maintained, and ready to use, making daily operations smoother. This reliability reduces the risk of delays or garment shortages, contributing to a safer and more efficient work environment.
Employees also appreciate having professional, comfortable clothing that helps them perform their daily tasks. Correct industrial textile care extends the garments’ lifespan, ensuring they meet hygiene and safety standards, while making the most out of the available resources.
