9. What anti-static properties are built into Frams safety footwear?
Static electricity accumulation is a serious hazard around sensitive electronics or explosive vapors. To prevent sparks, Frams builds specialized anti-static properties into its industrial footwear. The in-sock is made from a non-woven material stitched with anti-static conductive threads, creating a grounding circuit that safely dissipates static electricity from the body into the earth.Frams anti-static boots significantly reduce electrostatic risks.
- Does Frams offer safety shoes with anti-penetration steel midsoles?
Yes, for environments littered with sharp debris, Frams offers styles (including the Addo – 8472 and Chelsea – 11706) equipped with built-in anti-penetration steel midsoles (such as Style 11706). While standard steel toes protect from falling objects, they cannot stop a nail piercing upward through the sole. The Frams steel midsole acts as a shield across the entire footbed, resisting penetration forces up to 1100 Newtons. This makes these boots essential for workers in construction, scrap metal yards, and recycling plants.
