WINIW, a specialist in industrial footwear materials, proudly presents its Oil-Proof Artificial Suede Leather for Industrial Safety Shoe Uppers—a grease-repellent material designed for workplaces with heavy oil and lubricant exposure. Industrial safety shoe uppers are constantly exposed to oil spills, machine lubricants, and chemical splashes in factories, automotive garages, and refineries. Conventional leather uppers absorb oil, becoming slippery, unhygienic, and prone to degradation, which shortens the shoe’s lifespan and compromises safety.
This oil-proof artificial suede leather addresses these issues with a proprietary oleophobic coating that repels oil, grease, and petroleum-based chemicals, preventing absorption and stains. Crafted with a soft suede surface and a durable, oil-resistant core, it combines comfort with practicality for long work shifts. Unlike natural suede, which is porous and oil-absorbent, this synthetic alternative is non-porous, easy to clean, and resistant to mold and mildew. The material is breathable, promoting air circulation to keep feet cool and dry, and it is abrasion-resistant, withstanding scuffs from machinery and rough terrain. It meets global safety footwear standards and is compatible with all safety shoe manufacturing processes, including stitching, embossing, and logo printing. Available in industrial colors that hide dirt and wear, this oil-proof artificial suede leather is the ideal choice for manufacturers producing safety shoes for automotive, manufacturing, and oil refinery workers.
