Materials

For our safety shoes we only use first-class natural materials, plastics, rubber types and yarns.  When it comes to developing safety footwear, Bata Industrials is casting beyond the borders of its own work area. The most recent evidence of this are safety shoes equipped with the unique and patented Boa closure system. This is a system that finally puts an end to the traditional shoelace, guarantees a perfect fit, and ensures that the wearer literally acquires a ‘firm footing’ throughout the entire working day.

SATRA certified

SATRA is the most prominent centre for research and technology in the world. Close cooperation with and strict adherence to the SATRA procedures has led to an improvement in our products and our quality control system, enabling us to guarantee high-quality products.

Bata Industrials has a SATRA certified lab

We view it as our responsibility to supply the working population with the best fitting shoes which not only increase people’s safety, but also their vitality. To realise this goal, we invest continually in every type of innovation. Our own certified laboratory is an extremely important component in our company strategy.

Vibram®

Vibram® is the world leading specialist in outsoles for a variety of footwear. The Italian company is named after its founder, Vitale Bramani. Bramani is credited with inventing the first rubber lug soles for shoes. A lugsole is a thick rubber sole with deep indentations that improve the stability and traction.

Bright rubber safety sneaker outsole

Go to all safety shoes with a Vibram® outsole.

These soles were first used on mountaineering boots, replacing leather soles fitted with hobnails or steel cleats, commonly used up until then. Bata Industrials works together with Vibram® for safety shoes. A result of this cooperation is the sportive Bright collection.

A large part of our safety shoes are developed and produced in Best in Noord-Brabant. Our investments in robotics, Research & Development and advanced technologies are bearing fruit. Founded in the Czech Republic in 1894, Bata was one of the first manufacturers to sell its products all over the world.
