Lightness is a fundamental requirement for those who wear safety shoes for 8 hours a day. Often, however, safety shoes, even respecting the safety standards set by the regulations, are heavy and damp, causing discomfort to the foot. For this reason, Base Protection has designed the non-metallic SlimCap toe cap.
The weight of normal safety shoes can be up to 750 grams. Thanks to SlimCap and other technologies, Base Protection footwear can weigh up to 480 grams, while maintaining the safety parameters unchanged.
With SlimCap, the external dimensions of the Base Protection shoes are significantly reduced, with a 35% decrease in thickness compared to market standards. However, this reduction does not affect the performance of the safety shoes, which are guaranteed from -40 ° to 60 °.
The non-metallic SlimCap toe cap, only 6.5 mm thick, is not only smaller and lighter than those normally used, but it's also elastic, non-magnetic, and heat-insulating.
Lightness and comfort are also guaranteed by the protective band, which is perfectly adherent and shaped to the toe cap, avoiding the risk of detaching which causes pressure on the foot, and consequent pain to the toes.
Toe-cap's thickness is reduced to as low as 6.5 mm compared to other similar toe cap on the market: more room for toes.
Equipped with a protective strip and toe-cap shaped, it avoids the risk of accidental detachment and reduces the painful pressure on toes.
No pressure on toes and no pain.
One of the most important technologies applied to Base Protection shoes is SmellStop, a particular anti-odour lining that prevents the proliferation of microorganisms responsible for bad odours and fungi.
With SmellStop, Base Protection has made its safety shoes anti-odour and antibacterial*, ensuring maximum foot protection.
Thanks to the SmellStop permanent antibacterial* treatment, the risks of infections and fungi caused by sweat are drastically reduced, since the innovative lining recreates a healthy environment inside the shoe and a constant dry microclimate, ideal conditions to give well-being to the foot.
*Treatment made with biocide Zinc pyrithione (CAS-No.13463-41-7) product type PT 09 which counteracts the deposit of microorganisms on the surface of materials.
The advantage of Base Protection's SmellStop technology lies in the fact that the antibacterial* treatment does not have an expiration date but is effective for the entire lifespan of the safety shoes, carrying out a constant action.
Thanks to SmellStop, the Base Protection anti-odour safety shoes are comfortable and light even when worn for many hours a day.
The SmellStop lining keeps the foot dry, gently wrapping it with maximum wearability.
This is the European standard relating to safety footwear used for general purposes.
There are a host of specific tests conducted as part of EN ISO 20345, including tests for: Impact Resistance, Compression Resistance, and Anti-Penetration Insert.
Impact Resistance Test:
A steel weight of 20kg is adapted to fall freely on top of the footwear sample in order to assess the strength of the toe cap. After impact the distance between the toe cap and the insole must range between 12.5 –15mm.
Compression Resistance Test:
The footwear sample is subjected to a force of 15kN between two steel plates. Upon completion of the test the distance between the toe cap and the insole must range between 12.5 –15mm.
Anti-Penetration Insert Test:
A force of at least 1100N is applied to a test nail. In order to meet the standard, the tip of the nail must not protrude through the midsole of the footwear sample. A visual inspection is carried out to verify this.
The toe-cap is resistant to an impact of 200 joules
The sole is resistant to punctures
This shoe features a water resistant upper to help prevent water penetration
The sole is resistant to hydrocarbons, such as fuel and oil, to help ensure the shoe's lifespan is not compromised by exposure to these substances
These shoes are anti-static to help minimise the accumulation of electrostatic charges, thus avoiding the risk of fire, e.g. with inflammable substances and vapours
