Content

Rubber protective systems shall be made of high impact resistance rubber to a number of different size and colour configurations. The system comprises of elements which will control the speed of travel of vehicles, thus protecting people, the structure surface, and other vehicles in the park. It also incorporates other elements which are purely for impact resistance, in order to avoid or minimize the potential damage to a structural component such as a column, a wall or a loading dock area, when impacted.

FeaturesThe system has an aesthetic finish with concealed fixings, is easy to install, maintenance free, and has excellent resistance to UV and weathering.

Some of these elements are listed below

Wall Gard for the protection of walls & circular columns.

Speed Gard supplied in modules, works on the control of vehicular speeds in the car park.

Wheel Stopper is utilized for protection of kerbs, edges and structural elements.

Column Gard is specifically designed for the protection of square and rectangular columns.

Bumper Gard to withstand the impact and load of the loading & unloading vehicles.

WABO® D Gard

Features

Rubber Loading Bay Bumpers are heavy duty extruded or moulded profiles to withstand the impact and load of the loading and unloading vehicles. Bumpers protect the wall from damages and cracks. The impact level of these bumpers are very high. Bumpers are made of good quality, high density compounds to withstand resistance, deflection on impact and heavy impact.

Size

Rubber Bumpers can be manufactured to clients specification or as per cross section and quality details given below. Some of the standard sizes are:
