WORKWEAR FOR YOUR SAFETY IN THE WORKPLACE

 

Safety in the workplace it’s a matter of prevention, awareness, attention and precaution.

When you use the personal protective equipment best suited to your profession, you don’t only make an intelligent and conscious purchase, but you put yourself in the best position in the best condition to do your job. Workwear, indeed, is designed to meet the specific needs that arise in your working day and to improve your working conditions.

 

 

The functionality of workwear is essential to make your movements and actions more comfortable. Technical fabrics can improve your comfort and reduce stress, improving concentration and attention in performing your functions.

The safety’s clothing is given by little details that not only reduce the risk of an accident at work, but also help you saving precious time and maximising your efforts: if you have to look for a working tool in the toolbox whenever you need it, how often do you have to stop to complete your task? What if you could have everything at hand?

Correctly matching workwear allows you an excellent job “setup” that improves your performance and your wellness and reduces work stress.

WORKWEAR SOCKS: THE PROTECTIVE SAFETY CLOTHING IDEAL FOR YOUR SAFETY SHOES

 

Work health and safety legislation pays a lot of attention to the importance of workwear. It is worth the assumption:

Safety at work=appropriate workplace clothing

If your work shoes hurt or you suffer from blisters on your feet, before changing your shoes, exchange your socks with a pair of specific workwear socks!

The use of a sock that is not suitable for safety shoes and the type of continuous effort required can cause discomfort in feet, small injuries, and blisters.

 

 

Workwear socks are subjected to continuous stress and movement and, to protect the foot and to ensure its health, they must have specific characteristics, including:

 

• ✔ Stretch band/edge with adequate compression;
• ✔ elasticated Support Band;
• ✔ Ankle protection;
• ✔ reinforced toe and heel;
• ✔ antibacterial Protection;
• ✔ Quality materials and fibres to keep you warm in winter and fresh in summer.

 

U-POWER SKIN line offers short, medium and long socks, with protective padding, innovative materials with thermo-regulating properties, antibacterial treatments, support band with graduated compression, ventilation channels and all the freshness and heat that you need in summer or winter.

Choosing appropriate workplace clothing, as good workwear socks to combine with your U-POWER safety shoes helps you to have healthy and protected feet.

Purchasing a U-POWER item means choosing a quality workwear product that protects you, respect your skin and ensures safety from head to toe.
