  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 S2

  The General Requirements result S2 in the standard EN ISO 20345:2011 indicates the specific protection level for safety footwear designed to ensure high-level safety standards at workplaces, including basic toe protection, anti-static properties, energy absorption of the seat region, water resistance, and fully enclosed heel. This result reflects that the footwear has passed tests for basic safety with additional resistance features, notably against water penetration, which is key in wet environments. The test involves subjecting the footwear to simulated wear conditions focusing on the heel's capability to absorb energy and evaluating the upper material's resistance to water penetration and absorption. This result ensures compliance with a higher protective standard than the basic requirement (SB), which only covers toe protection and is mainly relevant to industries where workers may be exposed to moisture, providing assurance of foot protection and contributing to increased productivity and safety in working conditions that involve water or dampness.

• EN ISO 20344:2011

  EN ISO 20344:2011 is a standard that covers performance requirements and test methods for personal protective equipment (PPE) worn by workers in the construction industry. It specifies the requirements for PPE used to protect against foot hazards such as safety shoes and boots. The standard covers the design, construction, and testing of PPE, including items such as slip resistance, water absorption, and wear resistance. Test results will include information such as the PPE's grip and slip resistance, its durability, and comfort. The standard aims to ensure that PPE used in the construction industry provides adequate protection for workers from foot hazards.

• 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.

• PPE Category 2

  PPE stands for "personal protective equipment." PPE Category 2 refers to equipment that is more complex, and has a higher level of risk. Examples of PPE Category 2 include safety helmets, ear protection, and fall arrest equipment. In Europe, PPE Category 2 must meet certain safety standards set by the European Union, which means that it must be designed and manufactured to protect the user without causing harm. Companies that make or sell PPE must prove that it meets these standards. They also must have a quality management system in place and have to be audited regularly by a notified body.
