Safety Wellington Boots

Safety wellies are wellington boots that feature critical safety features to protect your feet from harm while working, doing DIY or even partaking in your favourite hobby. At Start Safety, we stock a vast range of wellies with something for every role and price point, allowing you to keep your feet dry no matter the terrain.

About Safety Wellington Boots

Our range of work wellies has been specially curated to deliver all the performance and protective features you will need when at work. Features within this range of footwear include composite or steel toe protector caps as well as sole protection shielding the foot from puncture wounds caused by treading on upturned nails and other sharp objects.

As all of these boots are still wellingtons, they, of course, perform the standard duties of a wellington. These duties include keeping your feet dry when wading in water or operating in excessively muddy conditions, such as those often seen on farms or winter building sites. Their high form gives greater protection than standard work boots, meaning that water and mud would simply pour over the top of them.

As a piece of safety footwear, all our safety wellies must comply with EN ISO 20345. This rating is always combined with other ratings such as S5 CI SRC, each of which indicating that the shoe has additional features such as a specialist sole that shields the foot from cold, skid resistance and other features.

Getting The Safety Wellington Boots For Your Needs

To get the most from your safety wellies, you need to get a pair that suits your needs; there are many factors to consider when choosing your boot, so we have put some key factors into consideration here to help you decide.

Thermal Insulation

If you are wearing your boots throughout the winter, look for CI rated boots that offer insulation through the sole, which is ideal for working on frosty frozen ground in winter months.

Toe Protection

Steel-toe cap wellies are a common choice, but new, modern composite alternatives are lightweight and a great alternative to the traditional steel-toe cap wellington boot. All safety wellies will include some form of toe protection.

Sole Protection

Treading on a nail, screw or other sharp item is easily done, especially when on a construction site or farmyard. A sole protection element will ensure your feet are protected from puncture wounds from below.

Antistatic

Depending on the environment you are working in you may need anti-static or even insulative boots that can protect from static discharge or electric shocks when working around high-voltage cables.

Colour

This may seem trivial, but the colour of a boot can be of high importance, especially if it is to be worn in a food production environment where white is generally specified.

Material

Choose a material that suits your working environment; some materials are easier to wipe, clean, and maintain, while others are significantly harder-wearing.

Tread Pattern

The tread pattern you need will depend on the type of terrain you are traversing. Deep mud with lots of debris will require a larger, deeper-cut tread pattern that helps displace dirt and water.

Slip Resistance

Ensuring you have plenty of grip on smooth hard floors is just as important as being able to cut through mud with ease.

Ankle Protection

If you are working around heavy equipment where your ankles could see impacts from tumbling rocks or even the equipment itself look for boots with extra ankle protection.
