THE GRAM RANGE

UL1P safety shoes

This safety footwear complies with the Regulation for Personal Protective Equipment (Regulation 2016/425) and meets the requirements of the European standard EN ISO 20345:2011.  It is certified by CTC France (Notified Body 0075), 4 rue Hermann Frenkel – 69367 Lyon cedex 07 – France.

Safety Footwear is manufactured using both synthetic and natural materials which conform to the relevant sections of EN ISO 20345:2011 for performance and quality.

Safety Footwear is designed to minimise the risk of injury which could be inflicted by the wearer during use. It is designed to be used in conjunction with a safe working environment, and will not completely prevent injury if an accident occurs which exceeds the testing limits of EN ISO 20345:2011. The size range is 37-48.

The footwear protects the wearer’s toes against risk of injury from falling objects and crushing when worn in industrial and commercial environments where potential hazards occur with the following protection plus, where applicable, additional protection.

Impact protection provided is 200 Joules.
Compression protection provided is 15,000 Newton’s.


Additional protection may be provided, and is identified on the product by it marking as follows:

P – Steel or Fiber midsole designed to withstand perforation forces of up to 1100 Newton
C Electrical Resistance less than 100 kΩ
A Materials and structure designed to dissipate static electricity charges (resistivity range between 0,1 and 1000 100 MΩ)
E Energy absorption capacity in the area of the heel is greater than/equal to 20 J
HI Footwear insulated against heat, designed to slow down temperature build up (less than 22 °C)
CI Footwear insulated against cold, designed to slow down temperature decrease (less than 10 °C)
FO Resistance to fuels
WRU Water resistant uppers
HRO Heat resistant soles (up to 1 min. contact time at 300 °C)

The only risks covered are those specified by the symbols marked on the footwear. Symbols are protection-specific. Later additions may modify product characteristics.

It is important that the footwear selected for wear must be suitable for the protection required and wear environment. Where a wear environment is not known, it is very important that consultation is carried out between the seller and the purchaser to ensure, where possible, the correct footwear is provided.

To ensure the best service and wear from footwear, it is important that the footwear is regularly cleaned and treated with a good proprietary cleaning product.  Do not use any caustic cleaning agents.  Where footwear is subjected to wet conditions, it shall, after use, be allowed to dry naturally in a cool, dry area and not be force dried as this can cause deterioration of the upper material. When stored in normal conditions (temperature, and relative humidity), the obsolescence date of a footwear is generally about 2 years. 


This footwear has been successfully tested against EN ISO 20345:2011 slip resistance and the following marking symbols apply:


Marking of product for slip resistance properties Marking code
Ceramic tile with sodium lauryl sulphate SRA

*Note: slippage may still occur in certain environments


If the footwear is cared for and worn in the correct working environment and stored in dry ventilated conditions, it should give a good wear life, without premature failure of the outsole, upper and upper stitching.  The actual wear life for footwear is dependent on the type of footwear, environmental conditions which can affect the wear, contamination and degradation of the product.


Marking on footwear denotes that the footwear is licensed according to the PPE regulation and is as follows:

Postal address of manufacturer
CE CE mark
EN ISO 20345:2011 Number of European standard
SB Category of protection
P Penetration resistance
E Energy absorption of seat region
SRA Type of slip resistance

Categories of safety footwear:

SB – Professional safety shoe with toe caps designed to withstand impact forces up to 200 J
S1 – Closed back part, Antistatic properties, Shock-absorbing heels, Resistance to fuels
S2 – as S1 + Water resistant (penetration and absorption)
S3 – as S2 + Resistance to penetration from sharp objects. Cleated soles

If the footwear becomes damaged, it will not continue to give the specified level of protection and to ensure that the wearer continues to receive the maximum protection, the footwear should immediately be replaced.

The packaging provided with the footwear at the point of sale is to ensure that the footwear is delivered to the customer in the same condition as when dispatched; the carton can also be used for storing the footwear when not in wear.  When the boxed footwear is in storage, it should not have heavy objects placed on top of it, as this could cause breakdown of its packaging and possible damage to the footwear.

The footwear is supplied with a removable insock. Please note the testing was carried out with the insock in place. The footwear shall only be used with the insock in place. The insock shall only be replaced by a comparable insock supplied by the original footwear manufacturer.


Penetration resistance
In this footwear, Non-Metal penetration-resistance insert is used.

The penetration resistance of this footwear has been measured in the laboratory using a truncated nail of diameter 4,5 mm and a force of 1100 N. Higher forces or nails of smaller diameter will increase the risk of penetration occurring. In such circumstances alternative preventative measures should be considered.

Two generic types of penetration resistant insert are currently available in PPE footwear. These are metal types and those from non-metal materials. Both types meet the minimum requirements for penetration resistance of the standard marked on this footwear but each has different additional advantages or disadvantages including the following:

Metal: is less affected by the shape of the sharp object / hazard (ie diameter, geometry, sharpness) but due to shoemaking limitations does not cover the entire lower area of the shoe;

Non-metal: may be lighter, more flexible and provide greater coverage area when compared with metal but the penetration resistance may vary more depending on the shape of the sharp object / hazard (ie diameter, geometry, sharpness)

For more information about the type of penetration resistant insert provided in your footwear please contact the manufacturer or supplier detailed on these instructions.


Antistatic footwear

Your newly acquired safety shoes are antistatic; a brief explanation follows below. Antistatic footwear should be used to minimize electrostatic charges, thus avoiding the risk of spark ignition of, for example flammable substances and vapours. And if the risk of electric shock from any electrical apparatus or live parts has not been completely eliminated. It should be noted that antistatic footwear cannot guarantee an adequate protection against electric shock as it introduces only a resistance between foot and floor. If the risk of electric shock has not been completely eliminated, additional measures to avoid the risk are essential. Such measures, as well as the additional tests mentioned below, should be a routine part of the accident prevention programme of the workplace. Experience has shown that, for antistatic purposes, the discharge path through the product should normally have an electrical resistance of less than 1000MΩat any time throughout its useful life. A value of 100 KΩis specified as the lowest limit of resistance of a product when new, in order to ensure some limited protection against dangerous electric shock or ignition in the event of any electrical apparatus becoming defective when operating at voltages up to 250V. However under certain conditions, the users should be aware that the footwear might give inadequate protection and additional provisions to protect the wearer should be taken at all times. The electrical resistance of this type of footwear can be changed significantly by flexing, contamination or moisture. This footwear will not perform its intended function if worn in wet conditions. It is, therefore, necessary to ensure that the product is capable of fulfilling its designed function in dissipating electrostatic charges and also giving some protection during the whole of its life. The user is recommended to establish an in-house test for electrical resistance and use it at regular and frequent intervals. If the footwear is worn in wet conditions where the soling material becomes contaminated, wearers should always check the electrical properties of the footwear before entering a hazard area. Where antistatic footwear is in use, the resistance of the flooring surface should be such that it does not invalidate the protection provided by the footwear. In use, no insulating elements with the exception of normal hose should be introduced between the inner sole of the footwear and the foot of the wearer. If any insert is put between the inner sole and the foot, the combination footwear/insert should be checked for its electrical properties. 


Wear life

The lifetime of shoes is not endless. The exact useful life of the product will greatly depend on how and where it is worn and cared for. It is therefore very important that you carefully examine the footwear before use and replace it as soon as it appears to be unfit for wear. Careful attention should be paid to the condition of the upper stitching, wear in the outsole tread pattern and the condition of the upper/outsole bond. Replace shoes timely, especially when they are seriously damaged or worn out. Over the years, the qualities of the material may be adversely affected by elements such as microbes, damp and/or temperature. This is also the case for unused shoes. 


Cleaning

Clean your footwear regularly using high quality cleaning treatments recommended as suitable for the purpose. Never use caustic or corrosive cleaning agents.
