In accordance with BIS IS 11226:1993, ISI Mark certification is mandatory for Leather Safety Footwear having Direct Moulded Rubber Sole. This Indian Standard specifies the requirements, sampling procedures, and testing methods for protective leather footwear manufactured using direct moulding technology to ensure enhanced durability and secure sole attachment.
The standard defines quality requirements relating to leather quality, direct moulded sole construction, toe protection, impact resistance, compression resistance, sole adhesion, flexibility, slip resistance, and overall workmanship. The direct moulding process provides improved bonding between the upper and sole, enhancing product reliability under demanding industrial conditions.
IS 11226 prescribes comprehensive testing for upper materials, rubber sole performance, flex resistance, abrasion resistance, tensile strength, water resistance, and structural durability to ensure long-term safety and performance. The standard also requires strict quality control measures during manufacturing to achieve consistent compliance with prescribed specifications.
Marking, packing, and labelling provisions are included to support product identification, traceability, and regulatory verification.
Leather Safety Footwear having Direct Moulded Rubber Sole certified by the Bureau of Indian Standards under IS 11226:1993 offers dependable protection, durability, and compliance with national safety standards, making it suitable for various industrial and occupational applications.
