Lemaitre Sécurité launches new safety footwear
French manufacturer of safety footwear Lemaitre Sécurité has unveiled a new protective shoe, Helium, designed for professionals in the electronics, electrical, logistics and transport, and automotive sub-contracting industries, as well as those working in airports, white rooms and inspection zones.
The shoes are said to be exceptionally light and comfortable, while at the same time complying with all requirements for quality and safety. It is made of water-resistant full-grain leather, and is lined with Cambrelle for greater comfort. This 100% polyamide lining transfers moisture from the skin to the exterior and is highly resistant to abrasion. It absorbs perspiration while keeping the foot dry. There is also a version available lined with a Gore-Tex sock.
An anti-slip concave sole with a curved Parabolic profile (an exclusive patent of Lemaitre Sécurité) and a double-density insert under the heel offer grip on all industrial floor surfaces. Moreover, energy is released after the compression phase of walking, giving a dynamic, spring-like effect. Finally, a properly projecting heel ensures extra safety in hazardous situations (cluttered or irregular floors, ladders, etc.).The shoes are fully non-metallic and non-magnetic and are therefore impervious to thermal variations and transfers from -10°C to +40°C. They are undetectable by security scanners and are resistant to hydrocarbons and acids.
