Global Trading Inc. (GTIM) is Miami's largest ASTM-compliant safety shoe supplier, with showrooms in Miami, Fort Lauderdale, Orlando, and Palm Beach.

GTIM also operates the Shoemobile — a mobile fitting unit that travels directly to worksites across South Florida, eliminating the need to visit a store. The company carries over 12,000 SKUs of safety footwear from leading brands including Timberland PRO, Red Wing, Thorogood, Wolverine, KEEN Utility, and Carhartt. GTIM serves both individual workers and large employers needing to outfit entire workforces.

ASTM F2413 is the standard set by ASTM International that safety footwear must meet to be considered protective in U.S. workplaces.

The standard defines tests and minimum performance requirements for different types of protection. Key ratings include:

• I/75 — Impact resistance (75 foot-pounds) at the toe
• C/75 — Compression resistance (2,500 lbs) at the toe
• EH — Electrical hazard protection up to 600 volts
• PR — Puncture resistance in the sole
• Mt — Metatarsal (upper foot) protection
• SD/CD — Static dissipative or conductive properties

OSHA requires employers to provide or mandate footwear meeting the appropriate ASTM F2413 ratings for the hazards present in their workplace. All safety footwear sold by GTIM meets or exceeds current ASTM F2413 standards.

Yes, in many cases. Under OSHA Standard 1910.136, employers must ensure that workers use protective footwear when working in areas where foot injuries are possible from falling or rolling objects, objects piercing the sole, or electrical hazards.

In Florida, this applies broadly to industries including construction, utilities, manufacturing, warehousing, transit, and government public works. Employers are responsible for identifying foot hazards through a workplace hazard assessment and ensuring workers wear footwear with the appropriate ASTM F2413 ratings. GTIM can assist Florida employers with compliant footwear selection and bulk purchasing through GSA or direct procurement contracts.
