How Do Anti-Static Shoes Protect Me?
Footwear with anti-static capabilities effectively channels static electricity away from your body, directing it safely through the shoe's inner sole, lining, and outer sole into the earth. This feature significantly reduces the build-up of static electricity, enhancing your safety in environments where static-related risks are a concern.
Safeguards Against Chemical Hazards
More than just a sturdy outer layer, the shoe's sole is engineered with multiple lines of defence: it's not only resistant to punctures but also fortified against hydrocarbons and chemical hazards. Coupled with cutting-edge shock-absorbing technology in the heel, each step is designed to be both secure and comfortable.
What Is the Importance of Hydrocarbon Resistance?
Hydrocarbons are organic compounds comprised solely of hydrogen and carbon atoms. Shoes that are resistant to hydrocarbons offer essential protection when you're working with or around chemicals. Such footwear guards against the risks of skin irritations, allergic reactions, infections, and chemical burns, particularly when chemical leaks or spills occur.
How Do I Keep My Portwest Base B0962 Clean?
Increase the life of your Portwest Base B0962 by taking good care of them. Use only soft brushes and water. Do not use substances such as alcohol, thinners, gasoline, oil or any other chemicals. Keep the footwear, dry and clean, in a proper place at room temperature.
