USER INFORMATION NOTICE

This safety footwear complies with the Regulation for Personal Protective Equipment (Regulation 2016/425) and meets the requirements of the European standard EN ISO 20345 :2022 S2 FO SR.  It is certified by CTC France (Notified Body 0075), 4 rue Hermann Frenkel - 69367 Lyon Cedex 07 - France.

Safety Footwear is manufactured using both synthetic and natural materials which conform to the relevant sections of EN ISO 20345:2022 S2 FO SR for performance and quality.

Safety Footwear is designed to minimize the risk of injury which could be inflicted by the wearer during use. It is designed to be used in conjunction with a safe working environment, and will not completely prevent injury if an accident occurs which exceeds the testing limits of EN ISO 20345 :2022 S2 FO SR . The size range is 35-47.

The footwear protects the wearer’s toes against risk of injury from falling objects and crushing when worn in industrial and commercial environments where potential hazards occur with the following protection plus, where applicable, additional protection.

Impact protection provided is 200 Joules.

Compression protection provided is 15,000 Newton's.

Additional l protection may be provided, and is identified on the product by it marking as follows.

It is important that the footwear selected for wear must be suitable for the protection required and wear environment.

Where a wear environment is not known, it is very important that consultation is carried out between the seller and the purchaser to ensure, where possible, the correct footwear is provided.

To ensure the best service and wear from footwear, it is important that the footwear is regularly cleaned and treated with a good proprietary cleaning product. Do not use any caustic cleaning agents. Where footwear is subjected to wet conditions, it shall, after use, be allowed to dry naturally in a cool, dry area and not be force dried as this can cause deterioration of the upper material. When stored on normal conditions (temperature, and relative humidity), the obsolescence date of a footwear is generally 4 years.

This footwear has been successfully tested against EN ISO 20345 :2022 S2 FO SR slip resistance and the following marking symbols apply.

SRA- Ceramic tile with sodium lauryl sulphate

SR- Slip resistance on ceramic tile floor with Glycerin

*Note: Slippage may still occur in certain environments.

If the footwear is cared for and worn in the correct working environment and stored in dry ventilated conditions, it should give a good wear life, without premature failure of the outsole, upper and upper stitching. The actual wear life for footwear is dependent on the type of footwear, environmental conditions which can affect the wear, contamination and degradation of the product.

Marking on footwear denotes that the footwear is licensed according to the PPE regulation and is as follows :

If the footwear becomes damaged, it will not continue to give the specified level of protection and to ensure that the wearer r continues to receive the maximum protection, the footwear should immediately be replaced.

The packaging provided with the footwear at the point of sale is to ensure that the footwear is delivered to the customer in the same condition as when dispatched; the carton can also be used for storing the footwear when not in wear. When the boxed footwear is in storage, it should not have heavy objects placed on top of it, as this could cause breakdown of its packaging and possible damage to the footwear.

The footwear is supplied with a removable in sock. Please note the testing was carried out with the in sock in place. The footwear shall only be used with the in sock in place. The in sock shall only be replaced by a comparable in sock supplied by the original footwear manufacturer.

 

ANTISTATIC FOOTWEAR

Antistatic footwear should be used if it is necessary to minimize electrostatic build-up by dissipating electrostatic charges, thus avoiding the risk of spark ignition of, for example, flammable substances and vapors, and if the risk of electric shock from any electrical apparatus or live parts has not been completely eliminated. It should be noted, however, that antistatic footwear cannot guarantee adequate protection against electric shock as it only introduces a resistance between foot and floor. If the risk of electric shock has not been completely eliminated, additional measures to avoid this risk are essential. Such measures, as well as the additional tests mentioned below, should be a routine part of the accident prevention programmed at the workplace.

Experience has shown that, for antistatic purposes, the discharge path through a product should normally have an electrical resistance of less than 1 000 MO at any time throughout its useful life. A value of 100 Ko is specified as the lowest resistance limit of a product, when new, in order to ensure some limited protection against dangerous electric shock or ignition in the event of any electrical apparatus becoming defective when operating at voltages of up to 250 V. However, under certain conditions, users should be aware that the footwear might give inadequate protection and additional provisions to protect the wearer should be taken at all times.

The electrical resistance of this type of footwear can be changed significantly by flexing, contamination or moisture. This footwear might not perform its intended function if worn in wet conditions. It is, therefore, necessary to ensure that the product is capable of fulfilling its designed function of dissipating electrostatic charges and also of giving some protection during its entire life. It is recommended that the user establish an in-house test for electrical resistance, which is carried out at regular and frequent intervals.

Class I footwear can absorb moisture and can become conductive if worn for prolonged periods in moist and wet conditions.

If the footwear is worn in conditions where the soling material becomes contaminated, wearers should always check the electrical properties of the footwear before entering a hazard area.

Where antistatic footwear is in use, the resistance of the flooring should be such that it does not invalidate the protection provided by the footwear.

In use, no insulating elements should be introduced between the inner sole of the footwear and the foot of the wearer. If any insert is put between the inner sole and the foot, the combination footwear/insert should be checked for its electrical properties
