The new Protect-it range solves this problem. Not only does it surpass the highest European standards for BOTH front and side impacts tested on a standard duty upright it also does not impede the aisle performance in a standard application. The protect-it protrudes less than the standard pallet overhang.
The protect-it comes in 134mm segments that can simply be clipped to your upright as many as you want. We recommend 3 per upright. Contact us to find out more about out rack protection products and services.
