What this certificate certifies
The 888 is certified under EN ISO 20346:2022+A1:2024, the European standard for protective footwear — not EN ISO 20345. The distinction matters and we do not blur it: protective footwear is rated at 100 J toe cap impact and 10 kN compression, while safety footwear (EN ISO 20345) is rated at 200 J and 15 kN.
The certificate, registration number BP 50693715 0001, was issued by TÜV Rheinland LGA Products GmbH (notified body 0197) and is valid from 2025-09-12 to 2030-09-11, backed by test report CN25HKY8 005.

Choosing the right pair for the job
For light industrial, warehouse and service work where the risk is dropped tools and floor debris, a PB P protective shoe is the appropriate and lighter choice. Where the risk assessment calls for 200 J toe protection — heavy plant, construction, steel — pick a style certified to EN ISO 20345. Our product pages state which standard each model is certified to, and the tongue label of every pair repeats it.
