What Do These Standards Mean?
EN Standards can be difficult to understand, especially if you're not within the industry. For more information on these shoes and what these safety standards mean, keep reading the information below. For a more detailed breakdown of EN standards, including specific variations and codes, check out our handy guide to EN standards for footwear.
These safety shoes have the EN safety standard rating: EN ISO 20345: 2011 S1P HRO. Let's break down what this means:
- EN ISO 20345 2011: This is the overarching standard at which the safety requirements needed for all work footwear are met. This standard is then divided into several different classes which are rated and determined from a series of risk assessments that are conducted for different parts of the footwear.
- S1: This is the subcategory of the EN ISO 20345: 2011 rating mentioned above. 'S1' means that this footwear has protective toecaps, fully closed heels with energy absorption, antistatic properties and resistance to fuel oil.
- P: This stands for 'Penetration Resistance'. This means these trainers prevent foot injury caused by punctures.

Here are some common areas where safety shoes are worn:
- Construction Sites: Safety shoes are essential in construction sites where workers are exposed to falling objects, heavy machinery, uneven terrain, and other construction-related hazards.

The Portwest safety shoes offer enhanced protection without feeling or looking as robust as they are - keeping workers comfortable no matter where they go.
