What is Puncture Resistance and Why is it Important?
Puncture resistance is a critical test that prevents puncture of the soles of protective footwear against hazardous substances. This test determines how puncture resistant the shoe is and is of great importance for occupational safety. In the USB Certification laboratory, we perform this test in accordance with TS EN ISO 20344:2021 and TS EN ISO 22568-4:2022 standards.
What are TS EN ISO 20344:2021 and TS EN ISO 22568-4:2022 Standards?
The S EN ISO 20344:2021 and TS EN ISO 22568-4:2022 standards are test methods for measuring the puncture resistance of personal protective equipment, especially protective footwear. These standards determine how puncture resistant the shoe sole is and whether it meets the required safety standards. In our laboratory, we conduct tests in accordance with this standard, ensuring that your footwear complies with safety standards.
Importance of Puncture Resistance Tests
Puncture resistance tests are vital to determine how durable protective footwear is to ensure safety in hazardous working conditions. These tests help to ensure that your products meet the requirements of CE certification processes and also give your products a competitive advantage in the marketplace.
Importance in terms of Environment and Area of Use
Puncture resistant footwear is essential to ensure the safety of workers in various industrial environments. Determining the puncture resistance of your products ensures that they can be used safely and effectively in a variety of industrial applications.
Puncture Resistance Test Process in Our Laboratory
Puncture resistance determination in our laboratory is based on the principle of piercing the shoe sole with a steel nail at a certain speed. This test measures the resistance of the sole to puncture and reports the results.
Puncture Resistance Test Process in Our Laboratory
The testing process begins with the preparation and conditioning of the specimens in the laboratory according to certain standards. The specimens are subjected to a puncture test with a steel nail and the results obtained for each specimen are recorded. These results are used and reported to determine the puncture resistance of the product.
