The Anti-Smash And Anti-Puncture Safety Shoes from Xi'An PPE MAX Co., Ltd are built to meet EN ISO 20345 and ASTM F2413 standards. Each pair carries a toe cap rated at 200J of impact resistance and 15kN of compression load. Underneath sits a puncture-resistant midsole that withstands 1,100 Newtons of penetration force. Toe versions come in steel, aluminum alloy, or composite. Midsoles come in steel plate or Kevlar. Construction crews wear them. So do manufacturing plants and logistics teams, where the danger arrives from above and from the floor at the same time.

This product are a special group of PPE footwear. They deal with two serious site hazards at the same time. One is a vertical impact force from something falling above. The other is an upward puncture from sharp debris below.
A protective toe cap handles falling steel beams, pallets, and machinery parts. A puncture-resistant midsole stops rusty nails from pushing up through the sole. Screw shards and jagged scrap metal get the same treatment. Those are two separate systems. Together they give dual-hazard protection, and standard footwear cannot deliver that.

Dual-layer protection architecture. Each layer does its own job. One risk is handled by the toe cap, the other by the midsole. Both kinds of cover arrive at once, and neither has to be traded away for the other.
Choice of midsole technology. Steel plates provide reliable resistance against thin sharp objects such as needles. Kevlar (Aramid Fiber) covers 100% of the footbed area — steel plates often leave edge gaps — and is lighter and thermally insulating by comparison.
Multiple toe cap materials. Carbon steel brings solid structure and costs less. Weight is the reason to pick aluminum alloy, since it brings the total down. Composite (fiberglass or plastic) holds no metal at all, so it fits electrical work where EH-rated footwear is required.
Durable outsole options. Dual-density PU/PU outsoles soak up shock and hold up through daily wear. Tougher site conditions ask for more, so rubber outsoles carry HRO heat resistance and SRC slip resistance ratings.
Chemical and physical resistance. Models that fit this use stand up to fuel oil, acids, and alkalis. That makes them a workable pick for chemical plants and for workshop floors that get oily.

Construction & Demolition Sites
Bricks fall. Heavy tools fall. Structural debris comes down from above too. Underfoot there is exposed rebar, nails left in formwork, and sharp bits of concrete. No other site hits you with impact and puncture danger at the same moment as often as this one.
Heavy Manufacturing & Metal Stamping
Chassis parts bring heavy crush risks in car and machinery plants. Metal swarf on the floor adds a second problem. One pair of Anti-Smash And Anti-Puncture Safety Shoes covers both hazards.
Waste Management & Recycling Logistics
Glass splinters show up on a recycling line. So do hypodermic needles and jagged scrap. Conditions change fast, and nobody can predict what comes next. A puncture-resistant midsole gives workers a key safety barrier here. Heavy bales and forklifts bring their own risks, and the toe cap guards against those.


Certifications
Our safety shoes are produced and tested in compliance with:
The tongue label on each pair states the applicable standard and protection category — for example, S1P indicates anti-smash and anti-puncture protection; S3 adds water resistance and cleated outsoles. Full certification documentation is available upon request for procurement and compliance purposes.

Our QC process follows EN ISO 20345 test protocols across five key areas:

Xi'An PPE MAX Co., Ltd makes Anti-Smash And Anti-Puncture Safety Shoes and protective footwear itself. Our operations began in 1956. Construction and heavy manufacturing buyers come to us for B2B supply. Recycling and logistics firms do the same. They get factory-direct access and full in-house quality control.


Q: How do steel plate midsoles differ from Kevlar ones?
A: A steel plate costs less. It stops thin sharp things like needles. Kevlar weighs less and bends more easily. It also blocks heat, and it covers the whole sole area. With steel plates the edges often end up with gaps. Kevlar does away with that problem.
Q: Should shoes be replaced after a major impact?
A: Yes. Once a shoe has sustained a significant impact or serious puncture attempt, the integrity of the toe cap or midsole may be compromised — even without visible external damage. Replacement is recommended in that situation.
Q: Are these shoes heavy to wear all day?
A: Steel toe and steel plate models are heavier. Composite toe and Kevlar midsole versions are noticeably lighter, which reduces fatigue for workers covering high step counts during a shift.
Q: Can these shoes be used for electrical work?
A: Standard models carry anti-static ratings, not EH (Electrical Hazard) ratings. For live electrical environments, composite hardware and non-conductive soles with a specific EH rating are required.
Q: How do I verify the shoe's certification on the product?
A: Look at the label on the tongue. It has to show the standard that applies (e.g., EN ISO 20345) and the protection category. S1P means anti-smash and anti-puncture. S3 adds waterproofing and cleated outsoles.
Q: Can you customize orders for OEM or private-label buyers?
A: Yes. OEM and ODM options are both available. That covers logo, labeling, and specification changes. Tell us what you need and we can go through it in more detail.
