Safety footwear provides good slip resistance, especially in wet
conditions, as well as a high degree of penetration resistance
(e.g. in case of nails) and protects the feet from falling objects
(e.g. during transport).
Protective gloves protect hands from infections as well as slight
crushing or bruises and cuts, especially during transport, instal-
lation, maintenance and dismantling.
