What Do These Standards Mean?

These trainers have the safety standard EN ISO 20345: 2011 S2. Please read below to understand what this means in more detail:

  • EN ISO 20345: 2011 S2 refers to a specific safety footwear standard that outlines the requirements and specifications for a particular type of safety trainers. The "S" stands for "Safety" and indicates that the footwear provides basic toe protection, and the "2" represents additional features and requirements related to the footwear:
    • Closed Heel: S2 footwear has a closed heel construction, which means the back of the shoe is enclosed, providing additional support and protection for the foot.
    • Toe Protection: The footwear must have a protective toe cap that can withstand an impact energy of 200 joules. This helps protect the toes from falling objects or compression hazards.
    • Closed Heel Area: The footwear must have a closed and energy-absorbing heel area. This provides additional support and protection to the wearer.
    • Antistatic Properties: The footwear must have antistatic properties, which means it can reduce static electricity buildup and minimize the risk of electrostatic discharge.
    • Water Resistance: The footwear must have water-resistant properties to some extent. This ensures that the footwear can withstand a certain level of water exposure without compromising its protective capabilities.

In summary, EN ISO 20345:2011 S2 is a specific safety footwear classification that indicates the footwear meets the requirements for toe protection, closed heel area, antistatic properties, and water resistance.

Comfortable and Protective

These trainers feature a lightweight design with perforated tops for extra breathability when working in hot environments. With antimicrobial lining, antibacterial-treated, perforated insoles, these trainers offer enhanced hygiene in work environments where people are on their feet all day, often in host, sweaty temperatures. 

Who Needs Breathable Trainers?

Various industries require people to be on their feet all day, often in hot, sweaty conditions. Some examples of these include:

  • Healthcare and Nursing, while treating patients all day and handling often heavy medical equipment
  • Hospitality and Food Services, serving customers and running around in hot kitchens 
  • Retail and Customer Service, carrying heavy boxes of good and walking around for extended periods
  • Construction and Manual Labour, while handling heavy goods and helping with building work
  • Warehouse and Logistics, carrying items to and from production for hours on end

These safety trainers are therefore the best solution for anyone needing basic safety at work that is also highly comfortable, while preventing trips and falls.

Why Should I Wear Metal-Free Trainers?

These trainers are metal-free, making them perfect for use in various workspaces. Metal-free trainers, (also known as non-metallic trainers), are required in certain work environments for several reasons:

  • Security and Safety Checks: In some high-security areas, such as airports, government facilities, or certain industrial sites, metal detectors or X-ray machines are used for security checks. Metal-free trainers are necessary to pass through these security checkpoints without triggering alarms or requiring additional screening. This helps to streamline the security process and maintain efficient operations.
  • Electrical Hazard Protection: Metal components in footwear can conduct electricity, which can pose a risk in electrical work environments. Metal-free trainers eliminate the risk of electrical conductivity, reducing the potential for electric shocks or electrical accidents. These trainers are often made with non-conductive materials like composite toe caps or fiberglass shanks.
  • Non-Magnetic Environments: In some industries or research settings, non-magnetic conditions are essential, such as in medical imaging facilities (MRI rooms) or laboratories working with sensitive magnetic equipment. Metal-free trainers are necessary to prevent interference with sensitive instruments and maintain the integrity of test results or imaging equipment.
  • Lightweight and Comfort: Metal-free trainers are typically lighter in weight compared to trainers with metal components. This can provide increased comfort and reduce fatigue for workers who need to be on their feet for extended periods. Additionally, non-metallic footwear often offers better flexibility and improved ergonomic design.
  • Heat and Cold Insulation: Metal-free trainers may offer better insulation against temperature extremes. Metal components can transfer heat or cold, potentially causing discomfort or temperature-related injuries. Non-metallic trainers can provide better thermal insulation, keeping the feet more comfortable in hot or cold environments.

Why Are Toe Caps Important?

These safety trainers come with inbuilt composite toe caps, which have a variety of benefits including:

  • Impact Protection: Composite toecaps are designed to withstand a significant amount of force and provide protection against heavy falling objects or accidental impacts. They act as a barrier between the toes and potential hazards, reducing the risk of fractures, bruises, or other foot injuries.
  • Compression Resistance: In certain work environments, there is a risk of the feet being exposed to compression forces, such as heavy machinery or equipment rolling over the feet. Fiberglass toecaps offer resistance against compression, preventing the toes from getting crushed or injured.
  • Occupational Safety Compliance: Many industries and workplaces have specific safety regulations or standards that require workers to wear protective footwear with toecaps. This is particularly common in construction, manufacturing, logistics, and other sectors where foot injuries are a potential risk. Wearing composite toecap trainers ensures compliance with these safety requirements.
  • Durability: Composite toecaps provide an additional layer of durability to the front portion of the shoe. They are highly resistant to impact and compression forces, as well as abrasion, making the trainers more robust and long-lasting.
  • Versatility: Composite toecaps can be incorporated into various types of footwear, including boots, trainers, and sneakers. This allows workers in different industries to choose the appropriate footwear style while still benefiting from toe protection.
