RediRack's Heavy Duty Protection Products

End-of-Aisle Barriers:

These racking barriers are installed at the end of pallet racking aisles to create a physical barrier that prevents forklifts or other equipment from accidentally driving into the racking structure. End-of-aisle barriers are made of heavy-duty steel and are anchored securely to the floor.

Wrap around Post Protectors:

Wrap around Post Protectors are installed around the front and side face of the upright posts to provide additional protection against impact. They help to shield the vulnerable parts of the racking from potential collisions, acting as a buffer between the forklift and the racking, absorbing and distributing the force of any collision.

Pallet Racking Anti-Collapse Mesh Backing:

Wire mesh backing is a protective mesh panel that can be attached to the back of the pallet racking system. The mesh provides a secure solution against products potentially becoming dislodged and acting as a danger to pedestrians enhancing safety on site as well as reducing damage to goods.

The Health & Safety at Work Act 1974 requires you to:

Provide safe systems and equipment for using, handling, storing and transporting articles and substances.
Provide the relevant information, instruction, training and supervision as is necessary to ensure the health and safety at work of employees.
Health & Safety Inspectors and Environmental Health Officers will actively check for Racking damage on your site. Taking the time and effort necessary to implement the additional safety measures to protect your Racking could make the difference between damage which can be quickly resolved, and critical damage which could potentially result in a collapse.
