The SBP safety standard means these shoes offer basic safety protection with the crucial addition of a puncture-resistant midsole.
Here is a breakdown of what the SBP certification (according to the EN ISO 20345 standard) provides:
SBP Safety Standard Explained
- SB (Safety Basic) Requirements:
- Toe Protection: A protective toe cap (in this case, steel) that can withstand an impact of 200 joules (equivalent to a 20 kg object falling from 1 meter).
- Non-Slip Soles: The outsole is designed to be slip-resistant. The shoe is also oil-resistant, enhancing traction on slick surfaces.
- P (Penetration Resistance) Addition:
- The "P" indicates a protective midsole plate (made of steel in this case) is included to protect the foot against penetration from sharp objects like nails or splinters from below. This plate must be able to resist a penetration force of 1100 Newtons.

In essence, SBP-rated footwear ensures your toes are protected from falling objects and your feet are safe from sharp items on the ground.
