About the Flexible Impact Pallet Rack Protection System
The Flex Impact pallet rack protection system is designed to provide effective guarding from accidental impact for the ends of racking systems used in the warehouse, distribution and logistics industries.
Flex Impact is suitable for almost all standard racking systems. Unlike barriers made from steel or other materials, it is made from a highly durable synthetic polymer, with inherent flexibility under impact conditions while also having the strength to withstand high impact forces. This means that, rather than being permanently deformed or destroyed, the barrier absorbs and dissipates the force of impact by ‘flexing’ and bending before returning to its original shape and form. This provides a major reduction in the cost of barrier repair and replacement over the lifetime of a modern facility.
When installed, the barrier has no direct contact with the rack end and therefore no impact forces are transmitted, ensuring total protection from damage, even in a crash scenario. These barriers are available in a range of sizes to suit single or double bays from most manufacturers and with optional upgraded reinforcement. Cold store versions of the product are also offered, with working temperatures down to -30C.
