SSR
The sole with the highest grip in the world!
It is estimated that the 23% of the accidents at work are caused by slipping and consequent falls, which lead to an average of more than 200,000 absences from work every year, for a total of 8.7 million of working days lost each year. A huge amount, that many times is not taken properly into account.
For this reason, Garsport has created a range of products dedicated to the agri-food sector, which is characterised by an outsole with rubber inserts featuring an exceptional resistance to slipping, and that guarantee the maximum safety on all the types of surfaces, even the most insidious ones. Thanks to the collaboration with “SSR Tecnology”, who has patented this special type of insert applied to our innovative monodensity polyurethane injected outsole, the new PU/SSR outsole hits a new and extremely high level of safety and a grip
which was unthinkable till now.
