Description

Rack Armour® Overview:

Rack Armour® is a market-leading solution for the protection of exposed pallet racking uprights, which are particularly vulnerable to impact damage from vehicles such as forklift trucks. As a globally-successful range for over 20 years, Rack Armour® is proven to reduce racking damage by up to 80%, saving significant amounts of time and money for the businesses that have installed these products in the process – making it a sustainable and cost-effective racking protection solution.
