Arbeitsschutz Aktuell is the trade fair and congress for safety and health at work — in 2024 more than 9,000 trade visitors from Germany, Austria and Switzerland came to over 230 exhibitors. Protective gloves, high-visibility clothing, fall protection or respiratory equipment only show their value on a person; we photograph your products in use, your live demos and your conversations with safety professionals.

A protective glove on a shelf is a glove. Only on a hand holding a cutting edge does it show what it is made for. That applies to almost everything at Arbeitsschutz Aktuell: high-visibility clothing, safety shoes, hearing protection, harnesses, respirators, fall arrest systems. So we photograph your products worn and in motion — on your staff, on demonstrators and, with permission, on visitors trying the equipment at your stand.
Technically that means: retro-reflective stripes without flash, so they do not overpower the whole picture; fluorescent yellow and orange in true colour instead of tipping into neon; natural skin tones even under cool hall lighting. For catalogues and tenders we add clean product shots with label, standards marking and workmanship details.
Arbeitsschutz Aktuell lives on demonstrations: drop tests on fall protection, exoskeletons while lifting, extinguishing demos, measuring instruments in use. We film these moments from two perspectives, cut a 30-second highlight for LinkedIn and deliver vertical clips with which your sales team reaches safety officers in companies. Statements by your product managers or your safety specialist are recorded with a wireless microphone and delivered with subtitles.
If your company speaks at the congress or in one of the show forums, we photograph talk, audience and panel — pictures that trade associations and accident insurers like to use in their reports.
Arbeitsschutz Aktuell takes place only every two years. Your material from Stuttgart therefore accompanies two years of sales, tenders and social media — and replaces staged catalogue photos with real pictures of real safety professionals at work.
Tuesday is opening day with the start of the congress and many association representatives. Wednesday brings the densest technical conversations and suits conversation pictures and interviews. For stand overviews without visitors we use the time before opening; Thursday is quieter and good for worn product shots with your team and for portraits. You receive the highlight video and first images on the evening of the shooting day.
Gloves, high-visibility clothing, shoes and respirators worn and in motion — reflective stripes without flash, true colours.
Drop tests, exoskeletons and extinguishing demos from two perspectives, at the right moment.
Label, standards information and workmanship photographed cleanly for catalogues and tenders.
Your stand before opening, with no visitors in frame.
Talk, panel and audience for the show report and association media.
Product managers and safety specialists with wireless microphone, delivered with subtitles.
A post with your stand while the show is still running gets seen and shared. That is why every package includes finished photos and video within 24 hours after the event ends — first images usually the same day. Two revision rounds included.
A sample from our production: the event recap for your website and LinkedIn — below it, native 9:16 footage for Reels, Shorts and Stories, shot in parallel with the main coverage.

We photograph without flash and in available light, so reflective stripes remain visible without dominating the picture. Fluorescent colours are matched on the stand so yellow and orange look like the product.
Yes, if they agree — we ask briefly and respect every no. For catalogues we also recommend shots with your own team, which you can use without restriction.
Yes. We coordinate the timing with your demonstrator, shoot with short shutter speeds and film in parallel, so the arrest is visible in both photo and video.
