FDI Award Slovenia 2025 for Creative Company

UNI&FORMA, the company behind the high-performance tactical clothing brand UF PRO, has been honoured with the FDI Award Slovenia 2025 in the “Creative Company” (Ustvarjalno podjetje) category. The FDI Award, presented by SPIRIT Slovenia and the Ministry of the Economy, Tourism and Sport, is the country’s national recognition for foreign-owned and mixed-capital companies that make a meaningful contribution to economic growth, technological progress, job creation, and international integration.

UNI&FORMA has a longstanding history of developing high-performance tactical clothing and ergonomic garment systems used by elite law-enforcement and military units worldwide. Under UF PRO, products developed and manufactured by UNI&FORMA serve highly demanding users, from European special units to SWAT teams in the United States, which underscores the company’s global reputation for quality, reliability, and technical excellence.

As a core entity within MEHLER SYSTEMS, backed by its German parent company, UNI&FORMA operates within a stable international framework that supports its development and integration into the group’s broader operational goals. The FDI Award not only recognises UNI&FORMA’s achievements, but also highlights the wider importance of foreign direct investment for both the Slovenian economy and the continued growth of the Mehler Systems group.

Jože Kastelic, Managing Director of UNI&FORMA, commented: “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. Thanks to the support and stability provided by Mehler Systems, we can commit to long-term development, continuous innovation, and production standards that meet the expectations of elite users all over the world.”

For MEHLER SYSTEMS, the award confirms that the integration of local Slovenian expertise with international investment and global reach remains a strong foundation, one that enables the group to meet future challenges and continue delivering excellence.
