UNI&FORMA, the company behind the high-performance tactical clothing brand UF PRO, has been recognised with this year’s FDI Award Slovenia in the “Creative Company” (ustvarjalno podjetje) category.
The award is presented annually by SPIRIT Slovenia and the Ministry of the Economy, Tourism and Sport to highlight the contributions of foreign-owned and mixed-capital companies to the country’s economic and technological progress.
A Slovenian Innovator with Global Reach
With roots dating back to 1997, UNI&FORMA has established itself as a leader in the development of high-performance tactical clothing and ergonomic garment systems.
Products designed and manufactured under the UF PRO brand are used by elite law-enforcement and military units worldwide, from European special teams to numerous SWAT units in the United States, reinforcing the company’s reputation for quality, reliability, and technical excellence.
Part of a Strong International Group
As a core entity within Mehler Systems and supported by its German parent company, UNI&FORMA operates within a stable international framework. This structure enables the company to align its development and production activities with the broader operational goals of the group.
The FDI Award highlights not only UNI&FORMA’s achievements, but also the wider value that international investment brings to the Slovenian economy and to the continued growth of Mehler Systems.
Reflecting on the recognition, Jože Kastelic, Managing Director of UNI&FORMA, noted:
“We are honoured to receive the FDI Award Slovenia 2025. This recognition belongs to our team whose daily work transforms ideas into high-performance tactical clothing.
