FROM RISK TO PRODUCT SELECTION

What's important?

  • Ground conditions and cleaning

    Consider the build-up of mud and organic debris in the tread. Both cleanability and suitable arrangements for drying footwear after cleaning matter.

  • Substances used

    See safety data sheets for disinfectants, fertilizers and plant protection products. Verify with the manufacturer the compatibility of the shoe material and the chemical in question.

  • Additional task-specific hazards

    Describe separately the need for mechanical protection in machine maintenance and material handling. Consider the need for special protective equipment for jobs involving cutting equipment.

The final selection is made with the risk assessment of the workplace and the current technical documentation of the model. Industry guides are not a declaration of product conformity.
