Description
Professional gardeners and forest rangers often encounter danger in the shape of muddy surfaces and falling branches and also face the potential hazard of working with chainsaws. The Protector Pro by HAIX will help keep you safe whatever you are doing.
Certified health and safety at work for forest rangers – cut protection class 1
The HAIX Protector Pro has been awarded the “KWF PROFI” seal of quality by the German Forestry Advisory Board to indicate that it fulfils all the relevant safety standards in this regard.
A cut protection boot offers extra peace of mind for those who work with chainsaws. The Protector Pro has been categorised as providing class 1 cut protection (tested at a chainsaw speed of 20 m/s).
The tip of the boot also features a steel toe cap to help avoid any injuries that may potentially be caused by falling objects such as branches or tools.
Slip resistant on any surface
The deep tread of the Protector Pro ensures a firm foothold on any surface, including wet tree trunks or icy cartways. The rubber used in the construction of the sole is extremely abrasion resistant. It will not wear down easily, even with frequent use.
The robust sole is also resistant to oil and petrol as well as being colour fast. It provides outstanding insulation against the heat and cold. Your feet will not become cold, even in snowy and icy conditions.
Dry feet – whatever the weather
The HAIX Protector Pro is easily able to deal with rain and damp. A four-ply GORE-TEX® membrane means that no drops of water and other liquids can penetrate the boot whilst expelling sweat at the same time. All of this keeps your feet feeling fresh and comfortable, even after finishing a strenuous day’s work.
