From Suva to Meyer BlechTechnik: A Tradition of Safety
Introduction
Every great company builds on tradition. For decades, Suva has been the authority when it comes to accident prevention in woodworking. Their protective devices set the standard for safety and have been used successfully across Europe.
In 2018, Meyer BlechTechnik joined this legacy as the official assembly partner. Starting in 2026, we will also take over direct distribution, offering customers a complete package of consulting, delivery, and service.
The Suva Legacy
Suva (Schweizerische Unfallversicherungsanstalt) is not just an insurance provider—it is also a pioneer in workplace safety. Recognizing the dangers of woodworking early on, Suva invested heavily in developing protective devices that:
- Comply with strict European safety standards.
- Can be retrofitted onto existing machines.
- Offer a balance of safety, usability, and durability.
These products are the backbone of woodworking safety across the continent.
Meyer BlechTechnik’s Role Since 2018
As a specialist in sheet metal construction, Meyer BlechTechnik ensures that Suva’s protective devices are produced and assembled with absolute precision. Our role has been to guarantee consistent quality so that every product meets the demanding needs of workshops.
2026: A New Chapter
Starting in 2026, Meyer BlechTechnik will not only assemble but also distribute Suva-developed protective devices directly. What does this mean for our customers?
- Faster delivery thanks to direct sales.
- Comprehensive consulting from experts who know the products inside out.
- One-stop solutions including accessories, spare parts, and custom fabrications.
This step allows us to serve woodworking professionals even better.

By combining Suva’s proven designs with our technical know-how and production capacity, we deliver the best of both worlds: safety rooted in tradition and modern service tailored to today’s needs.
Conclusion
At Meyer BlechTechnik, we see ourselves as custodians of Suva’s legacy and innovators for the future. Our mission is simple: to ensure uncompromising safety for every woodworking professional.
