Description
The shaft of our recycling shoe consists of 92% recycled PET bottles. The material is called REPREVE® polyester and is already used by numerous well-known brands. To produce REPREVE® polyester, plastic bottles and post-industrial waste collected worldwide are chopped, ground, washed and processed into high-quality flakes. These flakes are melted into liquid polymer and extruded through tiny openings in a spinneret, thus creating filaments that form the REPREVE® fibre. The company Unifi spins the fibre into yarn, from which a material is woven - REPREVE® polyester, which we process for the shaft of our ATLAS® Recycling Safety Shoe. In a comprehensive process we were awarded the U Trust® certificate, which confirms our compliance with the REPREVE® Certification Standards. · As with all ATLAS® safety shoes, the sole is made from our in-house MPU® (multifunctional polyurethane). We have further advanced the production process for the Recycling Safety Shoe: Production waste naturally occurs during the manufacture of the midsole in the direct soling system. We now collect these PU residues, granulate them and return them to the production cycle. 20% of the midsole of the Recycling Safety Shoe consists of added solids due to this process. In the midsole production of a single shoe, we can therefore save one fifth of primary materials and thus reduce the use of raw materials (polyol and isocyanate). Our MPU® Rebound System effectively springs back to its original shape immediately after impact. The wearer thus has optimal force distribution and the joints are relieved of stress. · Thanks to penetration-resistant XP® technology ATLAS® offers an innovative system that protects the foot against sharp objects such as nails. A high-tech textile material that includes aramid fibres is used for this purpose. The increased safety is not at · The anatomically shaped steel toe cap protects the foot in the toe area against impact of min. 200 joules and a compressive stress of min. 15 kN, according to EN ISO 20345:2012. · When handling high levels of physical strain in everyday work especially, temperature-regulating properties are not only required, they are expected.The aktiv-X functional lining stands for the highest quality, innovative technology and offers the wearer · The new MPU-REBOUND-SYSTEM from ATLAS® enables perceptibly economical and fatigue-free walking. The basis for this excellent walking comfort is formed by the three basic components: Pressure relief. Cushioning. Dynamics. This is ensured by the perfect interaction of a pressure-relieving insole and the light and highly reactive MPU sole technology. · The ATLAS® clima-stream® concept maximizes breathability, balances out the moisture inside the shoe and optimally regulates the temperature of the environment. The use of the high-quality, particularly breathable upper, the thermo-regulating inner lining · ATLAS® offers you a wide range of different orthopaedic insoles. The articles marked here are suitable for orthopaedic insoles according to DGUV regulation 112-191. The marking on the shoe is decisive for this.
