Maximum slip resistance
22 September 2017
U-Power’s new RedLion range of safety footwear is said to be one of the most slip-resistant on the market.

Because the workplace floor cannot always be relied on to be non-slip and may be contaminated with water, oil, grease, food or other residues, anti-slip safety shoes are essential in many industries such as construction, food manufacturing, offshore oil and gas and utilities.
RedLion’s 40 different, sporty, high-performance models, are all classified SRC, meaning they have more than met the specified requirements when tested on both wet ceramic tiles and steel with glycerol.
To have maximum slip-resistance, safety footwear should fit properly, be extremely comfortable, and have a flexible sole with an effective tread pattern that grips the floor, no matter what the conditions. The RedLion is designed to fulfil all these criteria with ease.
The RedLion has a coefficient of friction (CoF) of 0.82, double the industry standard.
