FAST PACE IN MEDICAL PROFESSIONS
THE FOCUS IS ALWAYS ON WELL-BEING
The right shoes are of great importance in medicine. Professional shoes for nurses, medical assistants, masseurs and physiotherapists impress with a modern and professional design and high functionality. Healthcare footwear must be durable and meet the high standards of hygiene. For this reason, shoes for medical personnel are usually offered in the classic colour white. This colour gives a professional appearance, conveys competence and seriousness. Modern design is just as important as pleasant wearing comfort and safe protection. Shoes for medical personnel are therefore characterized by safety features such as a slip-resistant and shock-absorbing outsole. With these shoes you can always walk safely even on slippery floors. In addition, shoes for medical personnel are breathable and water-repellent and provide you with high durability.
SELECTION OF PRODUCTS
ERGO-ACTIVE FIT CONCEPT
Besides the correct width, other factors contribute to achieving the right fit. In order to address typical problems regarding fit (too wide, too narrow, too short), we have developed the Ergo-Active 2.0 system. We distinguish between three different foot types:
- Type 1 (for larger feet),
- Type 2 (for average feet),
- Type 3 (for narrower feet).
MULTIPLE WIDTH FIT CONCEPT
The feet of employees in medical professions have to do a lot – so the shoes should fit perfectly. That is why we offer some of our models in three different widths:
- W (For the average width foot)
- XW (For the wider foot)
- XXW (For the very wide foot)
The comfortable multi-width system provides each foot with the individual space it requires. Since the toe cap has also “grown” in width, the necessary volume in the forefoot area is maintained.
LADIES FIT CONCEPT
LADIES HAVE A NARROWER FIT
Women’s feet are different to men’s: they are narrower and flatter than those of men with the same shoe size. For this reason, we have special women’s models within our range, which offer appropriate solutions to meet the requirements of female foot anatomy.
NON-SLIP THANKS TO SR
EXCELLENT SLIP RESISTANCE
If a safety shoe is SR certified, it means that it fulfills the addtional requirement for slip resistance. An SR certified safety footwear is tested on ceramic floors (tiles) where glycerine is used.
ORTHOPAEDIC FOOT PROTECTION
CERTIFIED ACCORDING TO EN ISO 20345/20347 (DGUV 112-191)
Many people develop foot problems during the course of their lives. Often it is not necessary to have these conditions treated orthopaedically. If your feet still hurt, our semi-orthopaedic insoles can help. If you develop an orthopaedic condition, special orthopaedic insoles are essential. A large proportion of the ELTEN collection is certified for orthopaedic adjustments in accordance with EN ISO 20345/20347 (DGUV 112-191). The orthopaedic shoemaker / medical supply store can make orthopaedic changes, without the shoe losing its protective function.
NO TIRED FEET
WELLMAXX
Especially in medical professions, employees are on their feet for many hours every day. They move around a lot on hard floors, stand for long periods of time, or work in a squatting position. For the feet, this means a heavy load. We prevent this problem with our WELLMAXX series! The innovative Infinergy® cushioning material in the sole core, from BASF, noticeably relieves the feet.
