Melba 46 Cone with No Waiting and Euro Band Cones

Since 1986, the one-piece traffic cone has been a staple of the Melba Swintex product range and has defined the Traffic Management sector. The high-demand for the 1-Piece Cone family has never been as high, and it is therefore with great delight that Melba Swintex introduce the Brand-New MELBA 46 Cone.

Stack of Traffic Cones
Thorough research into manufacturing processes and high-durability materials has resulted in the highest of quality 1-Piece Cone the industry has ever seen, with the improvement in design resulting in 500 pcs per pallet.

Improving lead times with the purchase of new injection moulding machinery has vastly improved production speeds on the 1-Piece Cone family.

With the introduction of new machinery, it has also been possible to double the production for the 1-Piece MPL75 Cone. By focusing on improving manufacturing techniques, production lead times have been vastly improved with customer satisfaction being key.

Collection of Ramps
There are a multitude of instances where either access is required up a sudden step, or emergency piping that is temporary must be placed into oncoming traffic. Due to being specialists in high-compression materials, it is understandable that there are many solutions to these issues available from Melba Swintex.

Access & Square Access Ramps
ACCESS RAMPS

The Access Ramp range is available as a 4” or 6” product providing an easy solution to navigating those curb heights. Indoor or outdoor use, the self-weighted ramp can be placed into a linear run by implementing the interlocking feature, with a water channel provided if rain happens to be forecast (outside hopefully).

Yellow & Black Speed Ramps
SPEED RAMPS

The Melba Ramps are a heavy-duty solution to traffic calming and help discourage those eager drivers in travelling at speeds they shouldn’t be. With the 5cm suited to speeds of 15mph, and its counterpart at 7.5cm for 10mph, the ramps come in a black & yellow variation and are fitted with highly reflective road studs, so those eager beavers don’t have any excuse!

Collection of three Wheelchair Ramps
WHEELCHAIR RAMPS

Designed, tested, and approved by users with varying abilities, our wheelchair ramp range provides a secure and encouraging solution to navigating obstacles found within the traffic management world. All three ramps can be provided in a high-visibility yellow to ensure safety, and all with conformity to current legislation, the ramps ensure easy access around those street works.

Two black Cable Covers
CABLE RAMPS

Event organisers hate this one simple trick! Actually no, they love it. Two heavy-duty cable ramps provide protection for when you just can’t divert those important cables. With both an under or over solution, the ramps boast a high-compressive strength allowing traffic to pass over safely and with ease.

Boss Hog

We were recently delighted to be sent images from one of our Exports customers of an installation they had erected in Belgium. The images speak for themselves, but display one of the many uses for our heavy-duty and highly robust Boss Hog Barrier system and thought we had to share.

Thor & Hammer - No Metal

Originally both our Thor & Hammer barriers implemented steel legs and rivets within its construction. However, these unprecedented times have seen costs and lead times dramatically increase for metal, and we saw this as a key time to take advantage of the situation. We have developed our very own HDPE leg which provides the same high performance and strength, with increased safety in Barrier collisions.

Barrier Hook

All Hooks are manufactured from Polypropylene and attached with the use of Tri-fold rivets allowing a quick and easy connection from barrier to barrier.

Barrier Tube

We have designed and engineered our very own barrier foot manufactured from HDPE at the Melba Swintex factory, providing the same high-quality performance as its metal counterpart.

Customisation Options

Various customisation options are available on both barriers so if you have a specific request then feel free to get in touch to find out what can be done.

Base Options

Melba Swintex supply a vast variety of heavy-duty Bases with which we would not want to fill up your Inbox with listing each and every one, therefore all of our Bases can be found online via our website. www.mebaswintex.com

Have a different Base requirement that we have somehow missed? Get in touch and we will look towards a solution together: sales@melbaswintex.com

Thor Spiderman

Recent weather has seen torrential downpours and high-strength winds that have resulted in damaged properties and uprooted trees. This unpredictable weather has brought unpredictable results, and what better way to ensure the stability of your temporary barriers than with the use of the Melba Swintex Heavy Duty Footplates, as well as our extensive range of Bases?

The New KG-Base is the latest addition to the Heavy-Duty Base collection. Providing a 25kg Ballast with a variety of hole locations for multiple layouts.  2 areas for personalised company identification and an ergonomically designed handle to ease handling.

The 25kg Footplate supplies a substantial ballast to various traffic marking products. 5 separate hole locations provide multifunctional use, as well as 2 areas for personalised company identification. 4 easy-carry handles allow a smooth transition from the work vehicle to the installation site.

The 28kg Footplate is the big brother to the 25kg, with almost identical features, whilst also providing that little bit of extra weight for peace of mind. As well as incorporating features to secure standard beacon sizes seen throughout Europe, the Footplate features a housing compartment for any loose batteries if required.

Need something a little lighter? The Fence Base MKII is suited for the mobile fencing market. Supplying a weight of up to 18kg, and 16 standardised holes ensures suitability for most construction jobs.

The Road Rock provides an impressive 15kg each, as well as a vast selection of uses. Its primary use is as a ballast to the Melba Swintex Barrier range, keeping them upright in Class A wind speeds.

For additional weight onto our Q-Sign range, the Q-Weight provides the perfect solution. Locating with ease onto the back leg, the Q-Weight reduces the chances of movement from the sign.

The Mini-DoubleTop

After the addition of the HOG600 to the Melba Swintex Separator range, the number one request that customer presented us with was an alternative to the short metal-framed panels that increased the overall height of the separator system. We listened.

The Mini-DoubleTop is a smaller variation of the DoubleTop, designed to locate into various barrier systems in order to increase their height. The robust design with additional reflective panels makes the HOG600 Chapter 8 compliant, whilst also providing a sound and stable setup ensuring public and workforce safety.

Height Variations
Like the existing DoubleTop, the Mini-DT incorporates a Hook & Eye connection which allows a fast & effective installation without the need for any additional parts or tools. With extra length on the connecting peg to ensure connection on uneven grounds.

Melba Swintex Recycling
THIS IS SERIOUS

The careless disposal of plastic is an ever-increasing problem for our planet. In 2015, approximately 300 million tons of plastic was generated, with the alarming statistic that nearly all plastic ever created still exists in some form today.

UN Environment Programme 2018

Sending plastic to landfill should no longer be an option, and more needs to be done to reduce the use of these single-use products. Examples include plastic bags, foamed plastics (“Styrofoam”), and glass-reinforced plastics, also known as SMC.

WHERE DOES YOUR RECYCLING REALLY GO?

Many products can be recycled, but to what extent?
It is common to recycle a product’s material just the once, this is a one-and-done process.

Glass-reinforced products can be recycled for use within concrete kilns or to make ash for Energy recovery (both processes being harmful to the environment),  but this rarely happens due to convenience and therefore heads straight to landfill .

PVC Recycling

Melba Swintex manufacture with durable grade plastics
these can be recycled more than once, and this is what we do!

Contact Us

WE ARE COMMITTED TO THE ENVIRONMENT.

All products from Melba Swintex are manufactured from recycled & virgin materials that are completely recyclable, with a company-wide ban on single use plastics and non-recyclable materials. Over 350 tons of plastic is recycled each week on site in our very own factory.

This practice allows the company to offer a true Closed Loop Recycling option to all customers, ensuring no waste product goes to landfill.
