Collection: Electrostatic Discharge Protection (ESD)

The ESD marking indicates that the shoes are designed to protect against electrostatic discharges. This means that these shoes are made of materials that allow electrostatic charge to be dissipated, thus protecting workers and sensitive equipment from potentially dangerous electrical discharges.

Main Features:

1. Electrostatic Discharge: ESD shoes are designed to dissipate electrostatic charges that can build up on the human body. This is especially important in workplaces where sensitive electronic equipment is used.
2. Protection for Workers and Equipment: ESD shoes help protect workers from electrical shock and reduce the risk of electrical discharges that can damage electronic equipment or pose a health risk to workers.
3. Antistatic Materials: ESD shoes are made of special antistatic materials that allow electrostatic charge to be dissipated through the sole of the shoe, thereby reducing the risk of its accumulation on the human body.

Areas of Use:

• Electronics Manufacturing and Assembly: Workers working with sensitive electronic equipment must wear ESD shoes to protect both themselves and the equipment.
• Computer and Telecommunications Industry: ESD shoes are essential for workers working with computer components and telecommunications equipment.
• Explosive Environments: ESD shoes help reduce the risk of sparks caused by electrical discharges, which can cause explosions in hazardous work environments.

Additional Benefits:

• Comfort and Safety: ESD shoes not only protect against electrostatic discharges, but also ensure that employees feel comfortable and safe throughout the workday.
• Durability: High-quality materials ensure that ESD shoes are durable and long-lasting, even with intensive use.

Standards:

• EN ISO 20345: This standard defines safety requirements for work footwear in Europe, including antistatic and electrostatic discharge properties, which are necessary to obtain the ESD marking.
