Protect-it column protection devices are a new innovation offering exceptional performance in racking protection. Rack systems are not designed to be struck by fork-lifts and even low speed collisions can lead to structural damage. This damage is a major occupational health and safety issue and is very costly to repair.

The Protect-it range of column protectors is designed to minimize the damage caused to pallet racking in the event of a forklift impact. We offer a product to suit most pallet racking column sizes and major brands sold throughout USA and Canada.

Low purchase and installation costs. Lowest replacement cost in the market (at time of writing). Securely grips the column with no separate fasteners. Install as many or as few as required. Effective in cold stores as low as -40 degrees. Available in recognized safety colours. International patents pending

Is Protect-it easy to fit to columns?

Protect-it takes just seconds to install by hand. The design incorporates an ingenious spring clip design that enables Protect-it to securely grip the column and automatically adjust its width to suit a wide range of column sizes. All other competitor products require an additional attachment system like Velcro, bolts, concrete penetration or additional parts that are prone to breakage.

Protect-it MAXI™

We are pleased to introduce the next generation of building column protection, the Protect-It Maxi™

This innovative new product is the ultimate in modular impact protection. Protect-It Maxi™ has inner and outer walls which deflect to offer a staged response when impacted, thus making the product flexible enough to accommodate everyday knocks and bumps, yet robust enough to withstand substantial forklift impacts.

Protect-It Maxi™ is made from a special grade of high density polyethylene (HDPE) with special additives to make it super tough in extreme environments that range from 110 °C /230 °F to -40 °C /-40 °F.

Most plastic competitor products are made from low density polyethylene using the rotational moulding process. This material becomes brittle in minus zero temperatures making tham unsuitable for freezer applications.

Protect-It Maxi™ column protectors are injection moulded, allowing us to use tougher HDPE materials with special additives and capable of performing in temperatures as low as -40 °C.

Sizes and Shapes:

Advantages:

• Lowest replacement cost in the market as only the damaged units need be replaced individually
• One of the lowest priced structual column protectors in the world
• Provides even impact absorption from all directions
• Outstanding impact performance
• Fits any column size beginning with 4" (100 mm) and increasing in 1" (25 mm) increments to fit any shape including SQUARE, RECTANGULAR, "H" SECTION, "I" SECTION, and ROUND
• Can also be used to protect walls of any shape
