Steel or composite
toecap?
Bruises and Fractures
The toecap
of a safety shoe serves a vital role: to protect your toes from impact damage.
An errant falling crate or sharp edge could do a lot of damage without this
vital piece of protective gear.
Steel toecaps tend to be heavier but more protective. They are not a good fit for workplaces that use metal detectors because they will need to be removed by workers before they undergo scanning. They are a great fit for workers who want nothing less than maximum protection in their safety footwear.
Composite
toecaps are made from materials that do not contain metal such as carbon fiber
or plastic. They are generally lighter and more comfortable compared to steel
toecaps so long work shifts become more bearable for wearers. Composite toecaps
are always improving as new technologies emerge. They are great for most work
in general.
