A combination of resistance with flexibility, as well as
durability and comfort. The dual-density soles of safety
shoes are made of polyurethane, making them wear-resistant (able to
resist material loss caused by some mechanical action) and anti-static
(prevents the build-up of static electricity or reduces its effects). The
safety shoes are designed to have a firm grip and provide slip resistance.
Hillson is a well-known safety shoe company that provides
supreme quality shoes at an accessible price. In the industrial field, safety
shoes have become one of the most crucial components. The shoes are made
not only to fit precisely and look good but also to feel comfortable and help
you perform your best at work.

BENEFITS OF DOUBLE DENSITY PU SOLES
The exclusive collection of double density PU sole safety
shoes has excellent anti-static properties, is light weighted, and sweat
absorbent. The sole of the shoes helps provide a cushioning effect to your
feet.
Here’s a little more about the benefits of double density PU
sole in safety shoes:
- Light
in weight – They are light because of how polyurethanes are
formed. In a nutshell, PU is formed when diisocyanates react with other
di-functional compounds like glycols. This triggers the release of
millions of little bubbles which results in their lightness, making it
lighter footwear.
- Climate
controlling – This may sound bizarre considering that they’re
shoes. Dual-density PU material shoes have the capability to withstand any
weather conditions. It allows for feet to remain insulated and warm in
cold conditions and when it’s hot, it allows for air to circulate and keep
the feet cool. This is particularly helpful in industries such as
construction and mining where temperatures vary outdoors.
- Anti-static –
Dual Density PU soles are designed to significantly reduce the flow of
electricity that goes through the shoes towards the ground. Ultimately,
diminishing the possibility of getting electrocuted. Industries such as
manufacturing and mining are suited to these properties of PU.
- Comfortable –
Dual-density polyurethanes provide a more cushioned sole for added ease.
This is to make sure that the time spent wearing these shoes is
comfortable. No matter what the purpose is, comfort is one of the first
things that comes into the mind while purchasing. Hillson
provides comfortable safety shoes.
- Durable –
The double density safety shoes can withstand temperatures up to 95
degrees Celsius which makes them more durable than those made without. It
makes them a coherent and cost-effective choice when one takes into
account the longevity of the shoes. As the shoes are made with dual layers
of PU, they are more reliable and tough.
BENEFITS OF DOUBLE DENSITY PVC
PVC soles resist abrasion, aggressive environments, and are
easy to manufacture. Polyvinyl chloride, widely known as PVC, is one of the
most popular plastics used in building and construction. It is used in drinking
water and wastewater pipes, window frames, flooring, and many other
applications. It provides a modern alternative to traditional materials such as
wood, metal, rubber, and glass.

- Lightweight
& Tough – The key technical advantages of PVC are abrasion
resistance, lightweight, good mechanical strength, and toughness in
building and construction applications.
- Easy
to install – PVC can be cut, shaped, welded, and joined easily in
a variety of styles. Due to its lightweight, the chances of facing
difficulties while handling it are greatly reduced.
- Durable –
PVC can resist different weathers, chemical rotting, corrosion, shock, and
abrasion. It is therefore the preferred choice. In fact, there’s an
account for some 85 percent of PVC production in the building and
construction sector.
- Cost-effective –
PVC provides excellent cost-performance advantages due to its physical and
technical properties, making it a popular material for construction
applications. It is very competitive in terms of price and this value is
also enhanced by the properties such as its durability, lifespan, and low
maintenance.
- Safe
material – PVC is non-toxic and a socially valuable resource that
has been used for more than half a century. It also meets all
international standards for safety and health for both the products and
applications for which it is used.
- Fire
resistant – Unlike other organic materials used in buildings,
including plastics, wood, textiles, etc, PVC products will not burn when
exposed to a fire. These products are self-extinguishing, i.e. if the
ignition source is withdrawn they will stop burning. It has high chlorine
content which contains fire safety characteristics, such as being
difficult to ignite, heat production is comparatively low and they tend to
char rather than generate flaming droplets. However, if there is a bigger
fire in a building, PVC products will burn and will emit toxic substances
like all other organic products.
- Good
insulator – PVC does not conduct electricity and is, therefore,
an excellent material to use for electrical applications such as
insulation sheathing for cables.
- Versatile –
The versatile physical properties of PVC allow designers a high degree of
freedom. While designing new products and developing solutions, PVC acts
as a replacement or refurbishment material. PVC has been the preferred
material for scaffolding billboards, interior design articles, window
frames, etc.
