The Portwest S3 safety boot, model FC18, is an advanced mid-cut safety shoe specifically designed for professionals who require optimal foot protection in challenging working conditions. Thanks to its metal-free construction and high-quality composite materials, this shoe offers excellent safety without adding extra weight. The model is ideally suited for work environments where both protection against sharp objects and protection against electrostatic discharges are required.
For which specific work environments is this Portwest S3 safety boot most suitable?
This safety shoe is ideally suited for ESD-sensitive zones, the construction sector, and industrial environments where work is performed with electronics or fuels. Thanks to the ESD certification according to the IEC 61340-5-1 standard, the shoe prevents electrostatic discharges that could damage sensitive equipment.
In addition, the water-repellent upper ensures that your feet stay dry during outdoor work. The heat-resistant outsole, which can withstand contact temperatures up to 300 degrees Celsius, also makes the shoe extremely useful in hot work environments.
What do the S3S and HRO standards mean for this S3 safety boot?
The S3S rating in accordance with EN ISO 20345:2022 means that the shoe is equipped with a protective composite toe cap, a water-repellent upper, and a puncture-resistant composite midsole against nails and sharp objects. The HRO designation indicates that the outsole is resistant to contact heat up to 300 degrees Celsius.
The addition of SR also guarantees excellent slip resistance on ceramic tiles with glycerine. This provides you with maximum grip and stability on slippery work floors.
The excellently cushioned footbed reduces fatigue during long workdays, while the reflective print on the upper significantly improves your visibility and safety in the workplace.
