About Briggs International Footwear

Briggs International Footwear is a safety footwear specialist supplying the UK industrial and commercial market with a practical range of boots and shoes designed to meet the protection requirements of workers in physically demanding occupations. The focus is on footwear that is properly built for the working environment, with the durability, waterproofing and underfoot protection that daily industrial use demands, at pricing that makes sense for organisations equipping teams rather than individuals making a single purchase.

The safety footwear market in the UK is defined by the EN ISO 20345 standard and its associated safety categories (S1, S1P, S2, S3 and S5), which specify the minimum protective features required for each classification. Briggs International Footwear products are manufactured and tested to these standards, carrying the CE marking that confirms compliance for PPE purposes under UK workplace health and safety legislation.

The range covers the footwear types most commonly needed across UK industry: safety boots for outdoor and construction use, safety shoes for indoor and light industrial environments, and specialist options for situations with particular requirements around slip resistance, electrical hazard protection or chemical resistance. With solid construction and accessible pricing, Briggs International suits procurement teams looking to equip a site workforce efficiently.

Products We Can Supply from Briggs International Footwear

S3 waterproof safety boots. Full-grain leather and synthetic upper safety boots rated to EN ISO 20345 S3, with steel or composite toe caps, steel penetration-resistant midsoles and waterproof membranes for use in outdoor construction, civil engineering, groundworks and any environment where wet underfoot conditions are the norm rather than the exception.

S1P safety boots and shoes. S1P rated footwear combining toe cap and midsole protection in a style suited to indoor and semi-outdoor environments. It comes in both boot and shoe formats to suit different applications and preferences. The shoe format is lighter and more comfortable for all-day wear in warehousing, light manufacturing and logistics.

Composite toe cap options. Composite (non-metallic) toe cap variants across the range for applications where metal detectors are in use, such as food production and some logistics facilities, or where reduced weight and cold-weather comfort are priorities.

Slip-resistant and specialist footwear. Footwear with enhanced SRC slip-resistance ratings for environments where wet or greasy floors are a specific hazard, including food processing, hospitality and healthcare maintenance. The SRC rating indicates testing on both ceramic tile with sodium lauryl sulphate solution and steel with glycerol, the two most demanding standard slip-resistance test conditions.

Industries

Briggs International Footwear products are used in construction and groundworks, manufacturing and production, warehousing and logistics, food processing and production, facilities management, retail and commercial distribution, and any workplace where a risk assessment identifies foot protection as a requirement. The range is particularly suited to organisations equipping a team or workforce with reliable, compliant safety footwear as part of a broader PPE programme.
