Shoes, doing their job.

So that you can do yours.

Our work and safety footwear is primarily focused on protection and safety. Year after year, the focus is shifting increasingly from minimum requirements to perfect comfort and attractive styling. We work on this every day: founded 80 years ago in Saarland, we have been supplying customers all over the world for decades. In addition, we have been one of the market leaders in the ESD and cleanroom sector since 1988. With continuous healthy growth, the abeba, Protektor and Grom brands now form the abeba group.

Must-have for the EPA: ESD shoes

ESD shoes dissipate electrostatic charges via the floor and must have a contact resistance of less than 100 MOhm in accordance with EN 61340-5-1. Qualification is carried out in accordance with EN 61340-4-3 under defined test conditions. Climate, contamination, floor conditions and body resistance have a significant influence on conductivity.

ESD officers must regularly check whether the protective effect is still maintained. The floor resistance must not impair the function of the shoes – ‘walking tests’ evaluate the interaction between the person, the shoes and the floor.

Toe protection for greater safety

Depending on your requirements, you can choose antistatic ESD work shoes made of steel, aluminium or composite plastic available.

Slip Resistance A, B, C

acc. to EN ISO 20344-20347

To test slip resistance, the shoe is clamped into a measuring device in various positions and then moved across the corresponding test surfaces. The value determined in this way is called the friction coefficient.

The test is carried out on ceramic tiles with SLS (sodium lauryl sulphate solution) and steel flooring with glycerol. Depending on whether the shoe passes the test on tiles, on steel flooring or on both types of flooring, the slip resistance is classified as SRA, SRB or SRC.nbsp;

The test methods are described in standard EN ISO 13287:2012, which replaces DIN 4843 Part 100 previously used in Germany.

SRA

Slip resistance on ceramic tile flooring with SLS (sodium lauryl sulphate solution).

SRB

Slip resistance on steel flooring with glycerol.

SRC

Slip resistance on ceramic tile flooring with SLS (sodium lauryl sulphate solution) and on steel flooring with glycerol (SRC = SRA + SRB).
