  General Requirements CR

  The standard EN ISO 20345:2011 encompasses general requirements for safety footwear to ensure they provide adequate protection in various occupational environments. Rating 'CR' signifies that the footwear has a cut resistant upper ensuring enhanced protection. The test method involves assessing the material's resistance to splitting or cracking under certain conditions, which simulates real-world industrial hazards involving sharp objects or surfaces. Practically, this result ensures that the footwear is suitable for environments where there is a risk of materials splitting or getting caught, thereby providing essential safety benefits to the user.

  General Requirements S1P

  The EN ISO 20345:2011 standard sets the benchmark for safety footwear designed to protect users from injuries and accidents in diverse environments. The S1P designation under this standard refers to footwear that has 200 joules toe cap, fully enclosed heel, anti-static protection, energy absorption in the heel, and penetration resistant midsole. The test for the S1P requirement involves ensuring that the footwear has a resistant toe cap tested against a 200-joule impact, electrical resistance testing under defined conditions to confirm anti-static properties, and penetration resistance, where the sole is tested against a force of at least 1100 Newtons. Moreover, the heel region of the footwear is required to absorb energy, thereby reducing impact during wear. These criteria make EN ISO 20345:2011 S1P certified footwear ideal for environments where sharp objects, electric charge, and heavy impact risks are prevalent, thereby guaranteeing a high safety standard for wearers in such conditions.

• CE Marking

  CE Marking is a label that shows a product meets certain safety and environmental standards set by the European Union. To get the CE Marking, a company must test and certify their product meets these standards. CE Marking is required for many products sold in the EU, including electronics, machinery, toys and medical devices. It helps ensure that products are safe for consumers and the environment, and allows for easy trade within the EU.

• Textiles

  Textiles are materials made from fibers, such as cotton, wool, or polyester. In Europe, there are rules for how textiles should be made, sold, and labeled. These rules are set by the European Union. These rules ensure that textiles are safe and do not contain harmful chemicals, that they are labeled correctly and that the use of certain dangerous chemicals are banned. These rules are set to protect the health and safety of consumers and the environment. Companies that make or sell textiles in the EU must comply with these rules.
