This video introduces the Dunlop Purofort boots
Purofort® Material: A Revolutionary Composition
Purofort® is a unique material, exclusively developed and used by Dunlop. It features millions of evenly distributed air pockets, a result of its high-pressure manufacturing process, a technique exclusive to Dunlop. This unique structure results in boots that are not only lightweight but also provide exceptional thermal insulation. The air pockets ensure that your feet remain warm even in the coldest conditions, a critical feature for those working in harsh environments.
The cross-linked structure of Purofort® adds to its durability and flexibility, making these boots resilient to cuts and abrasions, thereby extending their lifespan. The secret recipe for Purofort®, known only to Dunlop, varies for each boot type, tailored to meet specific work requirements and to ensure optimal performance.
Here is some science on the technology in this video
Technological Advancements in Purofort® Wellington Boots
Purofort boots are a culmination of Dunlop's pioneering efforts in redefining protective footwear. Since the early 1980s, when Dunlop first introduced Purofort® boots, they have consistently outperformed traditional rubber and basic polyurethane (PU) boots in several key aspects:
-
Lightweight Design: Purofort Wellies are up to 35% lighter than traditional PVC, rubber, or competitive PU boots. This reduced weight means less fatigue and tiredness in the feet, an essential factor for workers who spend long hours on their feet.
-
Optimal Lifespan: The molecular structure of Purofort, comprising hard and soft blocks, renders these boots cut-resistant and abrasion-resistant. This unique composition allows for a thinner, more flexible shaft, enhancing comfort without compromising on durability.
-
Flexibility: Purofort's extreme flexibility ensures maximum comfort, adapting to the wearer's movements and reducing the strain on the feet.
-
Strength and Durability: The material's maximum stretch capacity contributes to a longer lifespan of the boots, ensuring they withstand the rigors of challenging work environments.
-
Thermal Insulation: Purofort Wellington boots provide exceptional thermal insulation, preventing heat loss and keeping feet warm in temperatures as low as -20°C, and in some models, even down to -50°C.
The end of tired feet at work - Purofort are perhaps the most comfortable wellies around
Dunlop boots are often regarded as being the most comfortable boots on the market. End-users from different countries are confirming this as a fact.
In numerous trials Purofort boots have been shown by wearers as being the most comfortable. This is caused by the fit, low weight and insulating properties of their boots.
In addition, Purofort boots are proven to show less abrasion compared to rubber.
What’s more, Purofort boots weigh up to 2.2LBs less than normal rubber boots. Thanks to this lightweight and supple material your feet will be fresher after a long day work.
Increased durability and lifespan
Purofort boots are 50% stronger than rubber boots - proven in tests that stretch the rubber to snapping point.
Dunlop Purofort lasts up to 3 times longer than traditional PVC or rubber boots, thereby saving you money on your total boot spend.
