Beyond PPE: The Physics of Safety Footwear: Performance, Comfort, and Innovation

OCCUPATIONAL HEALT AND SAFETY CONFERENCE REFRESHER HOURS 81/08

THURSDAY 17 SEPTEMBER 2026
09:30 - 11:30

CONFERENCE ROOM A

PAV. A – LANE A4

Edited by: Base Protection

Workplace safety isn't just a matter of regulations, but of applied science.
It's the result of a precise balance between physics, technology, materials, and design, where performance and comfort become key factors for truly protecting people.
In this training session, Base Protection and Professor Vincenzo Schettini, a physicist and science communicator known for his series "The Physics We Like," accompany RSPPs on an original and engaging journey to discover the scientific principles hidden within safety footwear.
How does physics become a technological patent and transform into measurable safety?
Through concrete examples, scientific demonstrations, and real-life research and development cases, Professor Schettini will explain in a clear, light, and rigorous manner how innovations that improve worker protection, concentration, and well-being are born.
A unique opportunity to take a "lesson in innovation," discover how Base Protection's patented technologies—such as HiProFlex and HiFlap—work, and understand why physics isn't abstract: it's within every choice that makes work safer and more comfortable.

Speakers:
Daniela Stolfi, General Manager
Cataldo De Luca, Director of Innovation & Procurement
Vincenzo Schettini, La fisica che ci Piace
