SAFETY BOOT

Safety Shoe Safety Level SRA, SRB & SRC – WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE?

Newman Safety shoe is provided with an SRC certified slip resistant sole, meaning the slip resistance of the sole was tested on a ceramic tile wetted with a dilute soap solution and on a smooth steel plate with glycerol. The soles pass both tests with glance and do not only fulfill the minimum standards (SRA/SRB), but exceed them remarkably.

Make sure you’re aware of the degree of slip resistance below your feet, accidents are expensive. All Newman products are tested in laboratory conditions to be granted with a slip resistant rating. However, there are shoes out there described as ‘slip resistant’ or ‘improved grip performance’ that haven’t been formally tested. You can be 100% sure the safety footwear is slip resistant when you identify a slip resistant rating SRA, SRB or SRC.

SRA  (slip resistant soles are tested on a ceramic tile wetted with dilute soap solution) + SRB (slip resistant soles are tested on smooth steel with glycerol) = SRC (slip resistant soles pass both SRA and SRB slip resistance tests)
