Safety Information
RANGE
The Safety Boots R Us range of safety and protective footwear has been selected to offer a comprehensive range of styles allied to modern manufacturing methods which are suitable for all working conditions.
SAFETY STANDARDS
Many of our styles conform to ISO20345 with the remainder conforming to EN345. One style FS96, conforms to EN346 100 joules, protective footwear. These standards are noted in the product details for the style concerned.
EXTREME SIZES
Some styles are available in extra large sizes.
SLIP RESISTANCY
Accreditation SRA passes a measured slip resistancy test on a wet ceramic tile floor. Accreditation SRC passes a measured slip resistancy on a steel floor with glycerol solution and also passes the SRA measurement on a ceramic tiled floor.
ESD (Electro Static Dissipative Footwear)
ESD Footwear is designed specifically for the electronic components manufacturing
and assembly industries. ESD conforms to BSEN 1000015/1 1992 to be superceded
by IEC 61340-4-3.
