Do you comply with the law? Regulation 5

Regulation 5: Is your racking maintained in an effective state, in efficient working order and in good repair?

Pallet racking is considered work equipment and therefore must be maintained in an effective state. When damage occurs, it is your responsibility to have it repaired immediately. This can happen at inconvenient times, causing hassle, taking up time and costing a small fortune. 

The Rack Group have a number of maintenance systems which are proven to protect and strengthen your pallet racking, allowing it to withstand impacts which would usually render it dangerous. 


With the use of our Front Upright Reinforcement Section, Rear Leg Protectors and Rack Armour you can eliminate the need of repairs and replacements. This can be done at a fraction of the price to replace damaged uprights and takes about 1/3 of the time.
