Kitchen safety shoe
The particularities of kitchen and food industry environments require suitable footwear and personal protective equipment.
Indeed, several issues must be taken into account.
Kitchen shoes, safety in wet areas
As a result, floors and surfaces are often washed and disinfected with plenty of water and therefore agents are required to move on damp surfaces.
It is therefore essential to have a grippy safety shoe whose sole meets appropriate slip resistance standards.
The waterproofness of the shoe is also very important for working in good conditions with dry feet.
In this context, the clog, even if it is often preferred by certain agents due to its practicality, has a notable disadvantage in terms of insulating the feet from humidity with the risk of products being projected.
In all cases, the kitchen moccasin remains optimal protection knowing that if the environment is very humid, the kitchen safety boot may prove necessary.
Foot protection in the kitchen
A kitchen is often stainless steel furniture, with legs and angles that are sometimes protruding, sources of possible injury. Here again, the choice of a very practical clog in itself, a moccasin or a boot will not offer the same security in terms of protection, particularly at the heel level.
When using a clog, the strap, the objective of which is to hold the feet to a minimum, is often folded over the front of the feet to facilitate putting on and taking off, causing an additional risk of twisting and/or or loss of the clog during use.
For these reasons, the moccasin or boot offers increased safety with much greater protection , comfort and support.
