ESD stands for electrostatic discharge. ESD footwear is made for areas where static could damage sensitive electronic parts, and is tested to the EN 61340 series of standards, which sets a lower maximum electrical resistance than the anti-static range in EN ISO 20345. Every product on this page carries an EN ISO 20345 safety rating and is described by its maker as ESD.

Questions, answered
Is anti-static the same as ESD?
No. EN ISO 20345 requires anti-static properties from S1 upwards, with an electrical resistance between 0.1 and 1,000 megohms. ESD footwear must also meet the lower maximum resistance set by EN 61340, so ESD safety footwear is anti-static, but anti-static footwear is not necessarily ESD.
What does ESD mean on safety footwear?
ESD stands for electrostatic discharge. It means the footwear is made to control static for work near sensitive electronics.
