New SATRA cold rating test method

SATRA’s new test method now covers the cold rating of children’s footwear.

The development of smaller sizes of SATRA heated foot forms has led to a revision of SATRA TM436:2010 – 'Determination of whole shoe thermal insulation value and cold rating'. This new test method, which keeps the same title, is being published as SATRA TM436:2016 and covers the use of SATRA heated, perspiring foot forms in UK adult size 1 and child size 10. Please see the article 'Children’s cold rating and advanced moisture testing' for an in-depth consideration of the new foot forms.
