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
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
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.
Features an orthopaedic made to measure footbed that complies with european norms DGUV112-191
Offers shock absorption in the heel region
Base Protection has been independently rated by Ecovadis for its environmental, social, and ethical performance and achieved a platinum rating, meaning they are in the top 1% of globally rated companies.
The pillars taken into consideration include the environment, labour practices and human rights, ethics, and sustainable procurement.
