Resistance to oil and many chemicals
Sievi’s sole resists oil and many chemicals. The oil resistance of Sievi footwear meets the requirements of the EN ISO 20345:2011 standard.
Antistatic
Footwear designed with antistatic features, discharges the
body’s static electricity up to tolerances of 100 kΩ - 1000 MΩ.
Shock-absorbing heel
The shock-absorbing heel area protects the feet and the skeletal system against stress. The product meets the requirements of EN ISO 20345:2011 and EN ISO 20347:2012: the shock absorption capacity of the footwear is at least 20 J. The cushioning effect is guaranteed by the use of FlexStep® sole material in all Sievi footwear.
Sole material PU
The footwear sole is made of FlexStep® material. This single
density microporous structured polyurethane sole offers very
high slip-resistance and fl exiblity providing excellent shock
absorption.
ESD
Through its sole construction, ESD footwear provides a safe and
controlled method of discharging the body’s static electricity.
The tolerances for the resistance of Sievi footwear are stricter
(100 kΩ-35 MΩ) than for ordinary antistatic footwear
(IEC 61340-5-1).
FlexStep® – Grip and flexibility to work
The microporous FlexStep® sole material, developed by Sievi has been re-designed. The re-designed sole material maintains its excellent shock absorbing properties and flexibility in freezing conditions more efficient. The footwear sole therefore remains softer, even in heavy freezing conditions, and maintains excellent friction on slippery surfaces. The construction of the FlexStep® flexible sole eliminates stress and shocks to the feet and spine, helping to prevent foot and back pains and thereby improving work efficiency. The FlexStep® flexible sole is featured on all Sievi footwear.
