Purofort® Boots
Over 30 years of research and technology have culminated in the development of our Purofort material technology. As a material it displays exceptional properties and gives an outstanding performance for professional work based applications. We use a unique process which produces a material that is lightweight, durable, soft and flexible and thermally insulated down to at least -20°C; ideal for all day work wear.
Purofort wellington boots combine flexibility with a cushioned sole, making them very comfortable. The shock absorbing heel prevents fatigue on the feet which reduces pressure on the knees and hips. Purofort can last up to 3 times as long as traditional wellington boots so we make sure your cost calculator adds up too.
Ideal for farming, construction sites, rigs, food factories and all professional work related purposes.
Typical resistance list:
-Minerals
-Animal & vegetable oils & fats
-Disinfectants
-Manure
-Solvents
-Various chemicals
