oil & gas safety boots brochure 2014 from project sales corp
DESCRIPTION
The new laced/zip boot which normally offers a combination of laces and zip closures, allows the wearer to adjust the footwear via the laces, and then by use of the zip, doff and don the boot with relative speed and ease. Once the adjustments have been carried out, there should be no need to carry out any other fitting adjustments. The boots have proved to be very successful in oilfield industry and offer excellent support and ankle protection. What Are the Benefits of Lace-up / Zip Safety Boots? Physical hazards requiring protective footwear are involved in many workplaces. Many kinds of safety boots exist to meet these needs. The kind chosen depends on the hazards to protect against. Steel toe boxes are a common feature. While less universal, lace-up / zip construction which can provide valuable benefits. Avoiding Sprains Over-the-ankle lace-up / zip safety boots provide better protection when working in places where slipping on wet floors or working on uneven surfaces is a regular hazard. Twisting an ankle can result in a sprain, which involves the painful overstretching or tearing of ligaments. Good ankle support is provided by lace-up / zip footwear. The best lace-up boots have a side zip for ease and speed of removal Minimizing Fatigue Workers carrying a heavy load or walking on an uneven surface gain extra ankle support from over-the-ankle lace-up / zip boots, which help the wearer to minimize straining, tiring and injuring legs. Preventing Skin Injuries Rugged, over-the-ankle lace-up / zip boots can protect wearers from burns, cuts and abrasions. Over-the-ankle work boots are also wise choices for workers whose jobs expose them to sharp, ankle-high hazards, the lace-up / zip boot provides a tight fit at the top making it less likely for objects to enter the boot.

Slip Resistance
It is confirmed by the HSE that slips, trips and falls are the most common cause of major injuries at work and 95% of major slips result in broken bones. The cost to employers in the UK is £512 million per year... The human cost is incalculable.
3 KeY FaCTORS that affect slip resistance in footwear are:
1. Sole Compound: We use special blends of Rubber which give extraordinary levels of grip.
2. Tread Pattern: Our soles are designed with maximum floor contact with lots of sharp profiles to cut through contaminant with plenty of channels to disperse liquid.
3. Ladder Grip: We utilise a defined heel buttress and ladder grips to improve safety when working on ladders or steps.
2
as well as exceeding all the requirements of en ISO 20345 we independently test our footwear on surfaces that you commonly encounter such as Kennedy Grating and Scaffold board in line with hSe recommendations ‘Procuring slip-resistant footwear for work’.
