When it comes to safety footwear, key performance factors include slip-resistance, antistatic functionality, and the bonding strength between dual-density layers. In safety applications, both comfort and durability must be achieved simultaneously. Pluskim’s polyurethane systems, developed for high adhesion and antistatic performance, offer advanced solutions tailored for the safety segment.
Slip Resistance: Reliable Grip on Every Surface
Industrial floors are often slippery, wet, or contaminated with chemicals. Therefore, the outsole must:
- Comply with SRC certification (SRA + SRB)
- Maintain grip even in contact with oil, water, or detergents
- Resist abrasion and deformation
Pluskim-enhanced outsoles incorporate special fillers and additives to deliver exceptional slip resistance.
Antistatic Performance: Protection Against Electrostatic Discharge
A key safety feature in work shoes is the ability to prevent electrostatic discharge (ESD). Antistatic systems:
- Protect workers from static electricity buildup
- Ensure safety in sensitive environments like electronics manufacturing
- Fully comply with EN ISO 20345 antistatic requirements
Pluskim’s antistatic formulations are engineered to meet these standards reliably.
High Bond Strength in Dual-Density Systems: Seamless Layer Fusion
In dual-density safety shoes:
- The outer sole (e.g. TPU) is designed for abrasion resistance
- The inner sole (e.g. PU) offers flexibility and comfort
Ensuring strong adhesion between these two layers is essential. Pluskim’s solutions provide:
- High chemical bonding capacity between layers
- No separation, even under high pressure and temperature
- Near-zero delamination during extended use
With Pluskim’s slip-resistant, antistatic, and high-bond polyurethane systems, your safety footwear will meet both compliance requirements and user expectations. These advanced systems combine industrial durability with ergonomic comfort, delivering long-term performance and satisfaction.
