FAQ - Correct use, replacement, and maintenance of the helmet

  1. Proper maintenance of professional footwear for the food industry is essential to maximize its lifespan. It is advisable to regularly clean shoes with an appropriate detergent, check seams and materials for any signs of wear, and replace laces when necessary. Additionally, it is important to store them in a dry, well-ventilated place to prevent the proliferation of bacteria and unpleasant odors.

To ensure the safe use of safety shoes, it is crucial to choose the appropriate model based on the type of risks present in the workplace. The shoes must fit the foot correctly, offer adequate support and cushioning, and comply with safety regulations. Furthermore, it is essential to always wear them during work activities and follow the instructions for proper lacing.

Professional footwear for the food industry must meet specific requirements to ensure food safety. They must be made from materials compliant with approved food contact standards and equipped with non-slip soles to prevent workplace accidents.
