Thermal Properties of Polyurethane Safety Wellington Boots

Over the years a number of companies and manufacturers have heavily invested in the research and developments of advanced polymers and have continually developed material technologies. The results have been dramatic with the introduction of safety wellingtons being produced using polyurethane. This material has a great range of features which benefit the wearer and are suitable for use in industries which include food processing, agricultural sectors and heavy industrial companies including mining, construction and oil and gas.

These advanced material technologies deliver a product that out performs on all levels the standard PVC and Nitrile compound safety wellington boots. Polyurethane gives you great flexibility and suppleness whilst also giving you the advantage of increased comfort and lightweight properties which can help reduce fatigue, which can occur when wearing heavy garments and footwear. As you would expect the polyurethane polymer is waterproof but also has the added convenience of being very resistant to wide variety of chemicals, oil, blood and grease. Polyurethane on average is up to three times more robust than standard safety wellington boots that are manufactured from either PVC or rubber.

An outstanding feature of polyurethane is its thermal properties, unlike standard entry level wellingtons, styles that are manufactured using polyurethane deliver thermal insulation down to minus 20 degrees centigrade. Ideal if you are working in cold rooms or just out an about on farm land. It is clear to see from the previous comments that not all models are the same and the most popular styles available on the market today which are manufactured from polyurethane are the Purofort and Purofort Plus Dunlop safety wellingtons. These particular styles deliver all the advantages mentioned in this article plus a few more. The Purofort range also provides the wearer with good shock absorbing properties which help support and reduce stress on the joints. Robust and durable the polyurethane also gives you great resistance from wear and tear thus helping prolong the life of your new work boots.

Safety Wellington Boots in the Agrarian Sector

More often to referred to as the Agricultural industry this particular sector of industry must have safety footwear that performs for workers when required. The versatile nature of the working environment means that the typical worker comes into contact on a daily basis with a wide variety of terrains and potential hazards.

For instance walking across a typical farmyard you may come across wet, dirty and slippery surfaces, inside the animal sheds you have the risk of hygiene cross contamination from animal faeces, urine and various other activities which may include milking livestock. Progressing into the fields, depending upon the current weather, you may come into contact with more water logged, muddy and slippery surfaces. So as you can see in this sector you really do need your safety wellington boots to perform and work as hard as you do. In addition to the obvious protection you would require from the elements and other material and liquid hazards, a paramount requirement for any wearer is all day long comfort and the ability for your chosen wellingtons to be robust and durable, so at the end of the day your feet stay warm and dry.

It is therefore no wonder that the Purofort collection of wellingtons is favoured by many within the Agrarian sector. These boots have been designed to deliver reliable waterproof protection to keep your feet dry, whilst the unique thermal properties of the polyurethane keep your feet cool in warm weather and remarkably help keep your feet warm during colder weather. The tread design of the Purofort sole unit helps prevent clogging and thus helps you retain good grip on slippery surfaces. The properties of the polyurethane compound are also resistant to various liquids and help stop the invasion of animal urine and some liquid chemicals into the boots. These highly technical wellington boots have been the direct result of years of research and development, which has resulted in a product which delivers a wide variety of functional safety features and results in the wearer benefiting from a healthy and comfortable environment for your feet to be in all day long.
