PRODUCT NEWS Lightweight Strength for Demanding Jobs


This month, Red Gorilla® puts the spotlight on the Gorilla Shovel™, a lightweight yet hardwearing solution engineered to deliver performance, durability and user comfort across multiple professional environments. Designed for trade customers serving construction, landscaping and DIY markets, the Gorilla Shovel™ offers a compelling alternative to traditional metal tools. Manufactured using a robust single-piece unibody design, the shovel is made entirely from durable polypropylene, ensuring long-term reliability while maintaining an impressively low weight of just 1.2kg. This significantly reduces operator fatigue during repetitive lifting and shifting tasks, making it an ideal choice for end users who demand efficiency without compromising on strength.


The Gorilla Shovel™ has been developed with a clear focus on ergonomics. Its D-handle is shaped to enhance grip and control, helping to minimise strain on the arms and back during extended use. The handle remains secure even in wet or slippery conditions, reinforcing its suitability for year-round, outdoor applications. Safety and resilience are also key differentiators. Unlike metal alternatives, the Gorilla Shovel™ is non-sparking, making it suitable for environments where flammable materials may be present. It is resistant to UV, frost and weather exposure, allowing it to be stored outdoors without deterioration and delivering long-term value for both retailers and end users. Available in eight vibrant colours, the Gorilla Shovel™ offers retailers flexibility to align with customer preference or brand identity. Consistently positive customer feedback highlights its excellent strength-to-weight ratio, comfort and versatility, reinforcing its position as a dependable, high-performing tool. As with the wider Red Gorilla® range, the Gorilla Shovel™ is thoughtfully designed and built to last. POS support is available across most lines, backed by a knowledgeable and responsive sales team.
