About U-Power

U-Power is an Italian company that began as Almar in 1950, transitioning to the U-Power brand name in 2005 when entrepreneur P.F.

The company immediately gained a leading position in the European market and became the market leader in safety shoes and boots in Europe by 2019, particularly after launching their innovative RedLion collection in 2017.

The company has expanded beyond footwear to include multiple workwear lines, achieving the same leadership position obtained with safety footwear. The company has integrated sustainability concerns into its business model, viewing environmental protection as both an ethical obligation and a source of competitiveness.
