What EN Safety Standards Do These Safety Work Boots Comply With?
These shoes 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 shoes. 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.
- Anti-static 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, anti-static properties, and water resistance.
