I can answer technical questions regarding footwear manufacture, safety footwear, physical testing of footwear and safety footwear manufacture and testing.
I´ve worked 5 years as technical manager of a footwear testing laboratory, where I made testing on footwear and footwear components. After that, I´ve worked for 8 years in a safety footwear factory, in charge of quality control, laboratory testing and ISO 9001 certification. Presently, I work in a footwear soles factory where we make soles for footwear using injection moulding of thermoplastic rubbers and vulcanization of SBR rubber. I´m also in charge of laboratory testing and ISO 9001 certification.
I have a degree in Production Engineering by a Portuguese University. I´ve made several short training courses on quality, laboratory testing and computers.
