PANTER® VIBATECH, THE ONLY ANTIVIRAL AND ANTIBACTERIAL COMPOUND FOR EFFECTIVE FOOTWEAR AGAINST COVID 19

PANTER® VIBATECH ACCELERATES THE DISAPPEARANCE OF SARS-COV-2 IN JUST 6 HOURS, GUARANTEEING HYGIENE AND ANTIMICROBIAL PROTECTION DURING THE ENTIRE USEFUL LIFE OF THE FOOTWEAR

The Covid-19 health crisis has placed hygiene and safety protocols as an essential measure for the prevention and control of the spread of the virus. In the clinical, health, food and professional cleaning sectors, these standards are very strict, since viral and bacterial transmission in these activities is especially sensitive. Let us not forget that in the meat and food industry, as well as in hospitals, clinics (dental, physiotherapy, medical, aesthetic, etc.), nursing homes, laboratories, pharmacies or cleaning, exposure to biological agents is frequent as a consequence of the presence of microorganisms, which supposes one of the main risks for the health of the worker and for the rest of the people. In this sense, it is essential that professionals dedicated to these activities use personal protective equipment that protects them from this microbial contamination, since hygienic prevention is an effective and proven measure that helps stop the spread of viruses and bacteria.

Sensitive to these risks to public health and the needs of workers in these sectors, in terms of risk prevention from microbial poisoning and possible infectious or parasitic diseases that can be transmitted, PANTER®, manufacturer "made in Spain ” of safety footwear, offers the market work footwear with the most powerful antimicrobial shield on the market: PANTER® VIBATECH. Solution that guarantees maximum protection and hygiene, thanks to its advanced antimicrobial compound integrated into the polymer of the sole, being effective against viruses such as SARS-COV-2 and against bacteria such as MRSA, Ecoli, Campylobacter, Legionella, Salmonella, Listeria...

PANTER® VIBATECH is endorsed by BIOMASTER and has been developed under the ISO 21702:2019 (antiviral activity) and ISO 22196:2011 (antibacterial activity) standards, currently being the only footwear technology that accelerates the disappearance of viruses and bacteria up to 99% in just 6 hours. In addition, it has a permanent active ingredient of an inorganic nature, which remains in the footwear throughout its useful life, without migrating or disappearing after washing, unlike other organic antimicrobial technologies.

PANTER® VIBATECH technology is present in the entire line of footwear aimed at the health, clinical, food, HORECA (Hotels, Restaurants and Cafeterias), professional cleaning, etc. sectors, its most evolved proposals being:

• Zagros O2/S2 White or Black, Merlot S2 White or Black, Hops S2 White and Brisa O2/S2 White. These footwear, developed under the EN ISO 20345 standard, are made of state-of-the-art OEKO-TEX® certified microfiber that is 100% breathable and disinfectable, autoclaveable and machine washable, offering extraordinary flexibility and great resistance to degradation by chemical products. .

• Fragua Velcro ® Totale S2 white 269, Chacinero Totale 269 and Diamante Velcro® Totale S2 white 269. These shoes, developed under the EN ISO 20345 standard, are made of top-quality grain leather with a highly water-repellent treatment, effective against substances that degrade leather: blood serum, fats and oils of animal or vegetable origin, etc. Models highly resistant to tearing, easy to clean and with guaranteed breathability parameters.

• Charquera, Tlaloc and 2090 Blanco S4. These waterproof boots are made of PVC + Nitrile Rubber with high resistance to grease, oil and hydrocarbons, and are reinforced with different gauges of material in the areas most exposed to possible blows and scratches (heel, ankle, instep and toecap). Bellows-shaped instep design that facilitates flexion when walking. Its studied design prevents the entry of water in the feet. Extraordinarily durable and comfortable.

It should be noted that in these work activities it is frequent for personnel to come into contact with wet surfaces, it being essential that the footwear that equips them have soles that provide stability and adherence to the ground. In this sense, these PANTER® ranges are equipped with soles made from rubber and non-slip polymeric materials that provide extraordinary grip. In addition, they are highly flexible, resistant to abrasion, hydrolysis and aggressive substances. They have a special ribbed drawing that better drains water and prevents the accumulation of dirt. Among them, the PANTER® HIDROGRIP sole made of dual-density PU, super light, shock absorbing and with a very high anti-slip coefficient (SRC marking), stands out.

On the other hand, it should be noted that these professions often require spending a lot of time standing. Standing is a natural posture but it can become a health problem when you spend long hours in this position. to consequently it is common to suffer from contractures, back and knee pain, ankle swelling, venous problems…etc. Disorders that can be mitigated with comfortable and ergonomic footwear. In this sense, PANTER® footwear incorporates PANTER® OPTIMAL SOLE technology that not only cushions the impact when walking, but also helps promote the next step by optimizing effort. Transforms the energy of the footstep into impulse for the next one, ensuring an optimal distribution of plantar pressures, decreased muscle fatigue, lower back pain, and less risk of injury. This last, patented and developed by PANTER®, under strict scientific and biomechanical criteria, has been endorsed by the conclusions of the first Functional Study of Work and Safety Footwear in Comfort and Ergonomics carried out by Panter in collaboration with INESCOP, with certificate No. I- 13070356.
