Product Overview
The Be-Active S1PL LG FO SR is a high-specification safety shoe designed for professionals who require a blend of protection, comfort, and a contemporary aesthetic. Part of the respected Classic Plus collection, these low shoes are finished in a refined Grey/Blue colourway that maintains a smart appearance in diverse working environments. Built to meet the stringent EN ISO 20345:2022 safety standards, this footwear provides a comprehensive safety solution without the cumbersome weight often associated with traditional industrial boots.
Key Features
- 200 Joules resistant toe-cap: This integrated safety feature provides essential protection against impact and compression, ensuring your feet remain shielded from falling objects or heavy equipment.
- Puncture resistant sole: The underside of the shoe is engineered to prevent sharp objects, such as nails or shards, from penetrating the sole, significantly reducing the risk of puncture wounds.
- Metal Detector Friendly: Being non-magnetic and free from nickel and ferrous materials, these shoes are ideal for personnel working in high-security environments or areas with sensitive electronic equipment.
- Shock absorption in the heel region: By dissipating the energy generated during movement, this feature reduces fatigue and strain on the joints during long shifts on hard surfaces.
- Hydrocarbon resistance: The outer sole is designed to resist damage from oils and fuels, ensuring longevity and maintaining grip in environments where such spills are common.
- Anti-static footwear: These shoes help to prevent the build-up of static electricity, protecting both the wearer and sensitive electronic components in the vicinity.
Design & Performance
The design of the Be-Active low shoe prioritises both physical protection and ergonomic support. The low-profile silhouette allows for a greater range of movement at the ankle, making them particularly suitable for roles that involve frequent bending or kneeling. The interior is prepared for an orthopaedic made-to-measure footbed, complying with DGUV112-191 European norms, which ensures that those with specific postural requirements do not have to compromise on safety.
Performance-wise, the combination of the puncture-resistant sole and the shock-absorbing heel creates a stable platform for a full day's work. The materials selected for the upper and sole are chosen for their durability and their ability to withstand the daily rigours of a busy workplace while maintaining their structural integrity over time.
Why No Customisation?
At MyWorkwear, we pride ourselves on our customisation expertise; however, we do not offer embroidery or heat-seal services for this specific product. Modifying the structure of safety footwear by piercing the material with needles or applying intense heat can compromise the integrity of the safety certifications, such as the EN ISO 20345:2022 standard. To ensure your safety remains paramount, we provide these shoes in their original, tested condition.
Use Cases
These shoes are exceptionally well-suited for warehouse staff, logistics personnel, and light manufacturing workers who require toe protection and slip resistance. The metal-detector-friendly construction also makes them a premier choice for airport ground staff or security professionals who must pass through scanners frequently without the inconvenience of removing their footwear.
Why MyWorkwear
With a history stretching back to 1976, MyWorkwear has spent decades sourcing and supplying the most reliable personal protective equipment from our base in Telford. Our experience allows us to curate a range that balances technical necessity with daily practicality, ensuring that every product we offer meets the high standards our customers expect from a long-established British specialist.
Practical Advice
The Be-Active shoe is designed to accommodate both men’s and women’s widths, making it a versatile option for diverse workforces. When selecting your size, ensure there is a small amount of space at the front of the toe-cap to prevent rubbing during movement. We recommend pairing these shoes with high-quality work socks to enhance the moisture-wicking properties and the effectiveness of the heel shock absorption.
Caring for your product
To maintain the high-performance characteristics of your safety shoes, regular cleaning is essential. Remove surface dirt and debris after each shift using a soft brush or a damp cloth. Allowing dirt to accumulate can lead to the premature degradation of the materials and may affect the anti-static properties of the sole.
If the footwear becomes wet, always allow them to dry naturally in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources like radiators. Forced drying with high heat can cause the materials to become brittle and may weaken the adhesives used in the construction of the shoe.
Regularly inspect the soles and the toe-cap area for signs of excessive wear or damage. If the puncture-resistant sole or the toe-cap is compromised following a significant impact, the footwear should be replaced immediately to ensure continued protection in accordance with safety standards.
