1. Choose shoes that move with you
You cover more ground than you think in facilities work, often walking for miles every day. The last thing you want is stiff, heavy shoes that make every step feel like a chore. Opt for lightweight designs with flexible soles; shoes that move with you, not against you. 

EMMA uses clever combinations of materials and flexible sole constructions that support smooth movement and great walking comfort – ideal for long, active days.

2. Grip is gold – especially on slippery floors
A freshly mopped floor, a wet bathroom, or a slick warehouse aisle are all part of the job. But slips and trips? Definitely not. That’s why slip-resistant soles are a must. All EMMA shoes feature outsoles tested for grip. The latest slip resistance rating is SR (upgraded from the previous SRC). These soles provide maximum grip on both wet and oily surfaces.

EMMA develops its own outsoles for optimal grip, rigorously tested on a variety of floor types.

3. Comfort isn’t a luxury – it’s essential
When you're on your feet all day, comfort matters. It's as simple as that. That’s why ergonomics is so important; from shock-absorbing midsoles to footbeds that support your natural foot shape. This helps reduce fatigue and lowers the risk of knee, back, and foot problems.

EMMA models feature breathable linings and moisture-regulating materials, making them ideal for fast-paced, active work.

Available in white and neutral colours – perfect for the hospitality and healthcare sectors.

5. Safety also means no sore feet
There’s more to safety than just a steel toecap. Well-fitting footwear prevents rubbing, blisters, and pressure points. EMMA footwear often features seamless interiors and space for orthotic insoles if needed. 
Tip: Pair your safety footwear with proper work socks, like EMMA’s Coolmax® polyester socks with Sanitized® treatment for extra freshness.
