Sole Support: not only does the sole of the boot offer support, but it is also made in a bright orange colour for high visibility.

Shova Gumboots for a Range of Industries

We produce a variety of Shova gumboots, with specific design features in mind for each industry that require more specialised footwear protection. These include, but aren’t limited to:

Green and Black Gumboots: for use in the agricultural industry. These boots are made from virgin PVC and carries the EN ISO 20347 certification. Whether you’re operating a tractor or trekking through a field, you need sturdy waterproof footwear to protect you while you’re working.

Black and Black Gumboots: for all-purpose use, these gumboots are made from semi-recycled PVC and are suitable for a wide range of industries.

White and Grey Gumboots: for use in the medical and food processing industries. With 5/10-part nitrile content in the upper and 25-part nitrile content in the sole, these boots are oil/fat, acid, and blood-resistant. Nitrile is an oil-based additive that prevents polymers from breaking apart and forming a new structure, which means it prevents the PVC from getting hard and cracking.

In wet or dry conditions, no matter the industry, whatever the task, the Shova gumboot from Neptun will keep you comfortable, dry and protected.

Neptun offers a range of PVC gumboots that combat many of the threats present in the agricultural, mining, food processing and forestry industries, allowing you to get the job done with peace of mind that you are protected.
