Insoles
PANTER has the greatest and widest range of insoles for every work safety requirement on the market. We have developed our insoles with biomechanical criteria on mind, prioritising ergonomics, mobility and comfort, in our endeavour to provide the highest level of protection to your feet at your workplace.
TRI-TEC INSOLE
DRY FEET: Activated carbon that prevents theproliferation of microorganisms and bad odours, keeping the feet dry and comfortable.
PROPULSION: Viscoelastic material. Uses the remaining kinetic energy during gait to to take the next step.
SHOCK ABSORBER: Effective shock absorber in the area of highest impacts. Prevents micro traumas.
PERSPIRATION TRANSFER SHEET: Removes perspiration from the feet quickly and efficiently.
HIGHLY ABRASION-RESISTANT TEXTILE
ECOLÓGICA INSOLE
Ecological insole made with ESD antistatic polyurethane foam, recycled and with absorbent and breathable active carbon. Developed with PET fabric from the recycling of plastic bottles. The new Panter Memory antistatic foam provides extra padding on the tread thanks to its absorption, cushioning and recovery system after the impacts produced while walking.
Characteristic:
- ESD antistatic
- antibacterial
- antifungal
- Recycled PET
- light
- comfortable
- breathable
Crampons
Multipurpose system which provides the worker the possibility of changing the system located in the sole when the need to access a frozen area arises, ensuring the highest grip. It can be reverted to its original state at will, enabling it to be both as work footwear and regular footwear. It is the ideal boot to work in environments in which frost take place yearly.
Its rubber-based sole has been designed having frozen surfaces in mind. The folding system of aluminum crampons allows for the safe adherence to the surface. Moreover, it is possible to activate or deactivate them quickly and easily on the go to adapt to the surface.
HRO Shoes
The sole offers heat contact resistance up to 300º C (HRO). Produced from two layers of different densities: rubber-nitrile outsole and expanded polyurethane sole. Both layers are injected to the upper, ensuring its perfect bond and preventing delamination and ungluing. These soles are abrasion, fat and oil and hydrocarons resistant and provide heat and cold insulation.
Also included is the energy absorbing system in the heel area and relief sole for increased grip.
ESD Shoes
Some properties of static electricity cause problems, and footwear has become an important component that provides electrostatic control in some work areas.
Control of unwanted static electricity is of vital importance when staff works in the vicinity of processes, objects or materials that are sensitive to static discharge such as in production or use of electronic components. One can provide grounding for staff through their feet while they are standing or walking on a properly established surface for electrostatic control. That is why, when using esd footwear, it should be remembered that footwear cannot provide protection by itself, but a suitable ESD surface is also necessary.
UNE-EN 61340-4-3:2005 Standard describes the testing method to determine the electrical resistance of footwear used for controlling electrostatic charges. The Standard sets out two types of footwear:
- ELECTROSTATICALLY CONDUCTIVE FOOTWEAR: Footwear whose electrical resistance is less than 0,1 M Ω.
- ELECTROSTATICALLY DISSIPATIVE FOOTWEAR: Footwear whose electrical resistance is between 0,1 M Ω and 100 M Ω.
When footwear/surface systems are used as the main means of grounding for staff, the resistance of the combination must be set by the ESD coordinator, but it is recommended to be between 0,75 M Ω and 35 M Ω.
Metal Free
ADVANTAGES
· 40% LIGHTER
With a non-metallic insole and toecap, a lower weight is achieved than when it is metallic, this provides greater comfort and relief to the foot.
· 50% MORE FLEXIBLE
With a non-metallic insole, a more flexible and comfortable shoe is achieved, taking into account a factor as important as the natural flexion of the foot.
· 100% METAL FREE FOOTWEAR
PANTER's MetalFree footwear is free of metallic components both inside (textile anti-perforation insole, composite anti-impact toecap) and outside (textile or plastic eyelets, non-metallic trim, etc...)
· GREATER THERMAL INSULATION
Metals are not good thermal insulators, on the other hand, composites and fiberglass achieve a significant improvement in thermal insulation, avoiding the conduction of heat and cold.
· NON-MAGNETIC
As it is made of non-metallic materials, a non-magnetic shoe is achieved, so that it is not detected in metal detection arches.
· ANTISTATIC
A shoe without static electricity is also achieved, thus increasing the comfort of the user.
· RESPONSE TO CRUSHING
Another very important characteristic is the response of the material after an impact. This type of material, unlike steel, recovers its shape after impact thanks to elastic memory. This is very important in the event of entrapment as this makes it easier to extract the foot.
· CORROSION RESISTANT
As it is not a metallic material, there is no risk of oxidation.
Oeko-Tex
The slogan “Confidence in Textiles” is synonymous worldwide with responsibility for textile production, safety and transparency
• RELIABLE FABRICS, STANDARD 100
ORGANIC LABEL
The Oeko-tex Standard 100 is the world’s leading eco-label for determining whether textile articles contain harmful substances. The Oeko-Tex Standard 100 is a worldwide, unified testing and certification system for textiles at all stages of processing.
Tests for toxic substances include substances which are prohibited and regulated by law, chemicals which are considered hazardous to health, as well as preventive parameters.
Comfort Seal
The COMFORT SEAL guarantees the comfort of footwear, through an evaluation carried out based on:
APPARENT COMFORT. Analysis of comfort during use and qualitative identification of materials and components
CHARACTERIZATION OF PHYSICAL PROPERTIES. Determination of properties related to comfort such as hardness, rigidity, sweat management, impact/energy absorption, slip and antistatic characteristics.
DIMENSIONAL CONTROL. Analysis of the homogeneity of manufacturing in terms of weight and dimensions of all the scaling.
SIMULATION OF USE. Analysis by a panel of qualified and controlled fit testers and ergonomics.
Functional Seal
The FUNCTIONAL SEAL ensures that footwear is healthy and comfortable based on its use, through an evaluation carried out based on:
APPARENT COMFORT. Analysis of comfort during use and qualitative identification of materials and components.
SIMULATION OF USE. Analysis by a panel of qualified and controlled testers of specific user and usage requirements.
THERMAL COMFORT. Evaluation of the thermal response of the shoe and the foot during use and analysis of thermal management to interpret properties such as breathability, thermal insulation and thermoregulation.
ANALYSIS OF THE FOOTPRINT. Analysis of the distribution of plantar pressures and being able to interpret aspects such as the perception of comfort, grip, stability and the distribution of forces.
ANALYSIS OF MUSCLE ACTIVITY. Evaluation of the muscular activity required during walking and the perception of muscular fatigue.
MOVEMENT ANALYSIS. Analysis of the mobility of the joints, stability, cushioning of impacts when walking and the grip of footwear on different surfaces.
