CHEMICAL PROTECTION FOOTWEAR DESIGNED FOR CHEMICAL PROTECTION Whilst the applications of chemicals, acids and oils differ depending on the work site. The level of PPE required to handle these products too often varies. Some workers require a significant level of protection against possible spills and splashes, whilst others may just require footwear that lowers the risk of burns on an infrequent exposure. It is important to consider the level of footwear protection employees require for the jobs they're doing Given the level of risk can significantly differ from workplace to workplace, no single footwear solution will cover all applications. Employers need to understand the properties of the chemicals being used whilst determining the most appropriate footwear for the job. #982 EXTREME SERIES SAFETY BOOT In collaboration with members of the Australian aluminium manufacturing industry, Blundstone has designed the #982 Extreme Series safety boot range. Designed to be resistant to common industrial chemicals like sodium hydroxide (caustic soda) and Acetic Acid these boots ensure workers’ feet are protected whilst retaining the comfort and flexibility of a regular safety boot. Made with Schoeller® Keprotec® fabric and Kevlar® stitching these boots are compliant with the internationally agreed European Standard EN 13832-2:2006 for footwear designed to protect against chemical exposure. Making for an ideal footwear solution for many industrial applications. AUSTRALIAN APODA 2 ASSOCIATION MAINTAINING FOOT HEALTH Feet are central to everything that we do. But often foot health is not top of mind when considering overall health and functioning. However, poor foot health often leads to serious issues that affect the whole body. Legs, back and several joints rely on the feet being able to do their job, if not these areas are often the first to experience injury. Assuch, foot health is a critical area of consideration for workplaces looking to improve workers’ well- being and lower the risks associated with poorly fitting footwear. Supplying employees with the correct fitting footwear that not only meets safety requirements, but that is comfortable and fit-for- purpose should be atop priority for all organisations. Podiatrists are specialists who know the importance Blom ue In particular, their main concern is the prevention, diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation of conditions that impact individuals’ feet and lower limbs. The Australian Podiatry Association (APODA) is the nation's largest and oldest peak body representing podiatry and foot health promotion. Additionally, they are responsible for providing endorsements on footwear ranges that meet the stringent requirements specified to ensure the products promote and facilitate foot health. KINGGEE QUANTUM RANGE Endorsed by APODA, the Quantum range is designed to support foot health across an array of industries and applications. Offering a variety of hybrid footwear options, the range reduces the strain poorly fitting shoes have on an individual's overall health. Built on the understanding that traditional footwear is heavier and therefore requires more oxygen intake and heart rate response, the Quantum technology is up to 200g lighter than a traditional boot. 2B: SAFETY FOOTWEAR
