DNA<br />
The result of a<br />
constant<br />
undertaking to<br />
research new<br />
materials,<br />
the DNA range has<br />
been developed to<br />
optimise the<br />
wellbeing of people<br />
who work, in full<br />
compliance with all<br />
the Safety<br />
requirements.<br />
Comfort-System<br />
The DNA range is<br />
characterised by a<br />
new shape and a<br />
new sole.<br />
The internal volumes<br />
have been studied in<br />
order to ensure<br />
optimum space for<br />
the foot during<br />
working hours,<br />
maintaining a high and<br />
constant degree of<br />
comfort.<br />
Light-System<br />
Reducing the weight<br />
of the footwear<br />
enables us to save the<br />
energy of those who<br />
use it and therefore<br />
to improve their<br />
wellbeing. This is why<br />
ALMAR has<br />
developed a<br />
system of<br />
components<br />
and materials<br />
with a high<br />
technological<br />
content,<br />
which put<br />
together<br />
guaranteed<br />
safer, lighter<br />
footwear.<br />
Thermo-System<br />
The choice of<br />
innovative materials<br />
with an excellent<br />
capacity for allowing<br />
perspiration through<br />
and favouring the<br />
circulation of air<br />
inside the footwear,<br />
thus creating<br />
optimum conditions<br />
for the absorption of<br />
excess humidity and<br />
the restoration of<br />
wellbeing for the<br />
foot.<br />
Contact-System<br />
The first “active sole”.<br />
Use of a special TPU<br />
with a different mix,<br />
associated with a<br />
measured and<br />
different degree of<br />
density of the material<br />
itself has enabled the<br />
construction of the<br />
first “active sole”,<br />
which carries out four<br />
specific protective<br />
functions at the same<br />
time.
1<br />
1 The FLEX-<br />
SYSTEM ®<br />
pierce resistant<br />
midsole is made of<br />
composite material<br />
with special<br />
ceramics:<br />
extremely flexible,<br />
it protects 100%<br />
of the sole of the<br />
foot and cannot<br />
be detected by a<br />
metal detector. It<br />
is in fact nonmagnetic,nonthermal<br />
and is<br />
38% lighter<br />
compared with the<br />
traditional<br />
steel plates.<br />
2 The LIGHT-PLUS ®<br />
toe cap is made of<br />
polymeric material:<br />
non-thermal, nonmagnetic,anticorrosive,<br />
electrically<br />
insulating, cannot<br />
be detected by a<br />
metal detector.<br />
Compared with<br />
FLEX-SYSTEM<br />
100% protection<br />
Steel midsole<br />
85% protection<br />
traditional toe<br />
caps in steel it is<br />
51% lighter, even<br />
though it gives the<br />
same resistance.<br />
3 Thanks to<br />
TECHNO-LIGHT ® ,<br />
an innovative fibre<br />
with an excellent<br />
capacity for<br />
allowing<br />
perspiration<br />
through and<br />
preventing<br />
abrasion, the<br />
weight of the<br />
upper is 30% less<br />
than uppers in<br />
traditional leather.<br />
4 3D.LINING ® is the<br />
lining made of<br />
several layers with<br />
a network of<br />
micro-channels<br />
which guarantee<br />
that air and<br />
humidity pass<br />
through to<br />
the outside.<br />
5 VENTO-PLUS ® is<br />
the anatomically<br />
shaped footbed,<br />
covered with a<br />
special heatinsulating<br />
fibre<br />
with an E.V.A.<br />
reticular structure<br />
which absorbs<br />
humidity and<br />
perspiration from<br />
the foot during<br />
use and aids<br />
evaporation during<br />
rest, thereby<br />
obtaining maximum<br />
comfort from the<br />
footwear.<br />

The sole:<br />
1 anti-slip<br />
the TPU soft mix<br />
inserts, positioned<br />
at the exact point<br />
of inclination of the<br />
sole, give optimum<br />
results in<br />
maximizing<br />
adherence while<br />
walking (as set<br />
forth in European<br />
regulation EN<br />
13287:2004) and<br />
ensure a perfect<br />
anti-slip function.<br />
2 anti-abrasion<br />
in the points which<br />
have most contact<br />
with the ground, the<br />
resistance to<br />
abrasion performance<br />
levels of the compact<br />
mix TPU are three<br />
times higher than the<br />
required standards,<br />
the special cut of the<br />
cleats encourages<br />
debris to be expelled<br />
while the wearer is<br />
walking.<br />
3 anti-twisting<br />
the foot arch is<br />
supported thanks<br />
to the rigid mix TPU<br />
which prevents any<br />
unpleasant twisting.<br />

the “Multilevel<br />

inserted in the<br />
heel area, thanks<br />
to the capacity of<br />
differentiated<br />
progressive<br />
compression,<br />
absorbs and<br />
neutralises the<br />
micro-vibrations,<br />
thus avoiding<br />
unpleasant<br />
repercussions on<br />
the vertebral<br />
column.

Leading European<br />
SAFETY brand.<br />
Pioneer in the<br />
safety footwear<br />
market,<br />
avant-garde for<br />
the future.<br />
The Almar-Aimont<br />
<strong>Group</strong><br />
Almar was founded in<br />
1950 and has specialised<br />
right<br />
from the start by<br />
marketing<br />
anti-accident footwear and<br />
work footwear.<br />
The production of<br />
anti-accident footwear,<br />
which started with the<br />
creation of IDEAL, BLAKE<br />
and AGO and then evolved<br />
in the Seventies: Almar<br />
was the first Company in<br />
Italy to inject soles in<br />
dual density polyurethane<br />
directly onto the upper.<br />
During this time, the<br />
Aimont brand was<br />
introduced alongside<br />
Almar and stayed beside<br />
it following different<br />
marketing positions.<br />
In 2000, the merger of<br />
the Almar <strong>Group</strong> with the<br />
French group Jallatte,<br />
parent company of the<br />
brands Jallatte ® , Lupos ® ,<br />
Auda ® and Impact ® became<br />
the <strong>JAL</strong> GROUP, which<br />
today is a European<br />
leader with more than<br />
10 million pairs sold and a<br />
30% share of the<br />
market. The structure of<br />
the <strong>Group</strong> is divided into<br />
production factories in<br />
Tunisia, France and Italy<br />
and into commercial<br />
companies: Central<br />
Management, where the<br />
R&D activities for the<br />
brands is also carried out,<br />
remains the original site of<br />
the Almar <strong>Group</strong> in<br />
Paruzzaro, in the province<br />
of Novara.<br />
Approximately 3,500<br />
people are employed in the<br />
different business units of<br />
the <strong>Group</strong> and in the<br />
production factories, there<br />
are currently 21 carousels<br />
and 24 stations for the<br />
direct injection of dual<br />
density polyurethane, as<br />
well as the equipment for<br />
the production of different<br />
types of footwear.<br />
The automation and<br />
computerization of all the<br />
production processes<br />
have enabled Aimont and<br />
Almar to implement and<br />
guarantee an increasingly<br />
better service to the<br />
client.<br />
From June 2005, the<br />
new ownership<br />
arrangements of the<br />
<strong>JAL</strong> <strong>Group</strong> has given new<br />
strategic lines for the<br />
positioning and marketing<br />
of the Aimont and Almar<br />
brands, creating a new<br />
company image.<br />
