Approximately 1.3 million
Americans are blind, and
another 20 million Americans
suffer from partial or complete
vision loss (above).

the reason that, since our founding,

more than 20
languages,

regional
dialects as

At Uhlig, we have never accepted those barriers, either for ourselves or for the millions of people we serve each month. We believe that it is an essential part of our job to make our solutions available across media, across languages, and across the barriers of location, technology and physical impairment.

More than 60 million
Americans, or 20% of the
population over five years of
age, speak a language other
than English at home (above).

At least one million Americans
are deaf, and another 35 million
have hearing impairments (left).

and knowledge is power.”
