Mining, Quarrying, and Oil and Gas Extraction
The Mining, Quarrying, and Oil and Gas Extraction industry focuses on exploring, extracting, and processing natural resources such as metals, coal, petroleum, and natural gas. Companies in this sector use advanced drilling, excavation, and refining technologies to extract valuable materials for manufacturing, construction, and energy production. This industry is crucial for supplying raw materials to global markets, supporting infrastructure development, and meeting energy demands.


Safety Solutions
Mining, Quarrying, and Oil & Gas Extraction demand extreme durability from both workers and their gear. Underground operations, heavy machinery, and volatile environments increase the risk of crushing impacts, fire hazards, and chemical exposure. Our safety technologies, including puncture-proof soles, fire-resistant materials, and high-traction outsoles, are built to handle the toughest conditions. Discover how our protective solutions help workers stay safe in the most demanding extraction industries.

Risk of Impacts or heavy falling objects
The risk of impacts or falling objects refers to the potential for direct impacts on the foot, including incidents involving falling objects, collisions with moving machinery, and handling heavy tools, equipment, or objects.
