Universal protection
February 1st 2011 The New Universal Column Protector
from Addgards offers a cost effective
way to protect
columns and forklifts. Supplied in
four sections with plastic cross
membranes, the Universal Column
Protector can be cut to fit any size
concrete column up to 700mm
square.
"We were always receiving enquires
for different size columns, especially
the larger columns that we couldn't
cater for with the current range of
standalone Columns Protectors, so we
designed a protector that could be cut
to fit at either our factory or by the
customer," says Barry Flynn, MD of
Addgards. "This allows the customer
great flexibility and also keeps their
costs down when protecting very
large columns."
All Addgards Column Protectors
are tough – made from a high density
polyethylene – highly visible,
maintenance free, cost effective and
easily installed without tools or
fixings. The range of sizes now
extends to fit columns from 100mm
to 700mm square.
On collision the Addgards Column
Protector will release air to cushion
the impact between the forklift and
the column. The Column Protector
can withstand heavy and frequent
blows. It can also be sold in half or
quarter sections, minimising cost
when only one section needs to be
replaced. More articles from Addgards Ltd: |
