What Do These Standards Mean?
These boots have the safety standard EN ISO 20345: 2011 S5 and EN 13832-3: 2018. Please read below to understand what these mean in more detail:
- EN ISO 20345: 2011 S5 refers to a specific safety footwear standard that outlines the requirements and specifications for a particular type of safety boots. The "S" stands for "Safety" and indicates that the footwear provides basic toe protection, and the "5" indicates the level of safety features provided by the footwear. The S5 designation for safety footwear means that the footwear meets the following requirements:
- Toe Protection: The footwear must have a protective toe cap that can withstand an impact energy of 200 joules. This protects the toes from falling objects or compression hazards.
- Closed Heel Area: The footwear must have a closed and energy-absorbing heel area for additional support and protection.
- Antistatic Properties: The footwear must have antistatic properties, reducing the risk of electrostatic discharge.
- Energy Absorption: The footwear must have energy-absorbing properties in the heel area, which helps to reduce the impact on the wearer's feet and joints.
- Penetration Resistance: The footwear must have a puncture-resistant sole to protect against sharp objects penetrating the sole.
- Water Resistance: The footwear must have water-resistant properties to some extent, providing protection against water and moisture.
- EN 13832-3: 2018 provides guidelines and requirements for footwear used by professional kitchen staff to ensure their safety and comfort. It covers various aspects such as:
- Slip Resistance
- Durability
- Water Penetration
- Absorption
- Cleanability
- Heat Insulation
Both EN standards address the footwear's ability to maintain hygiene standards in the kitchen. They are specific safety footwear classifications that indicate the footwear meets the requirements for toe protection, closed heel area, antistatic properties, energy absorption, penetration resistance, and water resistance.

Who Can Use Anti-Static Shoes?
These anti-static boots are ideal for a range of industries, including:
- Electronics Manufacturing for protection against ESD when handling electronics
- Semiconductor Industries to prevent damage to semiconductor components (and wearers)
- Computer and IT industries to reduce likelihood of damage to sensitive computer components
- Pharmaceuticals and Laboratories to prevent ESD from interfering with sensitive experiments and samples

Who Can Use the Portwest Wellington Boots?
Safety shoes should be worn in various work environments where there is a potential risk of foot injuries. Here are some common scenarios where safety trainers are typically worn:
- Construction Sites: Well-known for their robust construction and toe protection, S5 wellington boots are commonly worn by construction workers who face potential hazards like heavy objects, sharp materials, and wet conditions.
- Industrial and Manufacturing Facilities: In industrial settings, where there may be risks of falling objects, metal components, or chemical spills, S5 wellington boots can offer protection against impacts, punctures, and chemical resistance.
- Agricultural and Farming Environments: Wellington boots are often used in agricultural and farming sectors, where workers deal with various outdoor tasks, including livestock management, working in wet or muddy conditions, and potential exposure to sharp objects or chemicals.
- Marine and Fishing Industries: S5 wellington boots are suitable for marine and fishing environments due to their water-resistant properties. They can provide protection against water, slips on wet surfaces, and potential hazards like fishing equipment or marine machinery.
- Utilities and Maintenance Work: For professionals working in utilities, such as plumbing, electrical maintenance, or sewage management, S5 wellington boots can be suitable as they offer toe protection, resistance to punctures, and protection against potential exposure to water or chemicals.
Why are Steel Toe Caps Important?
These safety boots come with inbuilt steel toe caps, which have a variety of benefits including:
- Impact Protection: Steel 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. Steel 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 steel toecaps. This is particularly common in construction, manufacturing, logistics, and other sectors where foot injuries are a potential risk. Wearing steel toecap shoes ensures compliance with these safety requirements.
- Durability: Steel 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 shoes more robust and long-lasting.
- Versatility: Steel toecaps can be incorporated into various types of footwear, including boots, shoes, and sneakers. This allows workers in different industries to choose the appropriate footwear style while still benefiting from toe protection.
We have a range of Steel Toe Capped Shoes, Steel Toe Capped Footwear and Steel Toe Capped Trainers for personal protection across a variety of industries.
