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.

MINIMAL LEAD TIMES – GET THEM HERE FIRST

The Gate Barrier is one of the original Chapter 8 barriers on the market, and our most popular barrier ever. These past few months we have invested heavily in new tooling which has seen lead times for the Gate massively reduced.

So get your orders in ready for all of those upcoming events we can all once again enjoy!

Connection from barrier to barrier is quick and simple with an easy drop and secure solution, that allows for uneven ground and varying kerb heights.

Four Location lugs within the windows of the barrier allow for the attachment of a courtesy sign, providing the option for extra information if required.

Various customisation options are available for the barriers, including bespoke colours and corporate identification embossed onto the front of the barrier.

Like with all Melba Swintex barriers, there is an abundance of heavy-duty foot options as well as methods for ballasting for those high wind speed applications.

Thor & Hammer go All Plastic

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.

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.

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.

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.

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

A crowd may be the last thing anybody wants to be in at this moment in time, so all controls need to created in order to ensure a safe and socially distanced environment.

In just over a months’ time the Boss Barrier will mark 7 years of great success within the Event Management sector. Having been the first of its kind manufactured from completely recyclable plastic, the Boss has become a staple product that has crossed the oceans to be found globally.

Manufactured from durable materials resistant to high impact forces, which are non-conductive, and contain no sharp areas that could cause serious harm, the Boss brings a modern touch to an outdated system.

Coloured in Black as standard with fully rotatable feet, the barrier can be branded with corporate identification, as well as the facility to hold signage & advertisement boards.
