The Driveway Board is the first blow moulded board of its type. Tested under strict laboratory conditions, the board has been approved to the current HAUC specification. As well as it’s great strength and durability, the board is also 100% recyclable.
Sophisticated design on the underside of the board, complete with high-strength bars supply additional strength resulting in the board capable of supporting heavy loads. With the addition of a deavy-duty PVC skirt that adds unparalleled grip to prevent movement of the board.
All materials used on the driveway board are 100% recyclable. By using Melba Swintex closed-loop recycling this eliminates sending the boards to landfill, each Driveway Board when recycled, can be used to manufacture new products, cone bases, or even a new skirt for another Driveway Board.
With safety at the forefront, careful research & design has been focused on the top surface pattern to ensure the best distribution of detail to allow a good grip for both footwear and tyres. Directional arrows have also been implemented to communicate the correct orientation of the board.
Tested in accordance with the latest HAUC regulations, the Driveway Board can withstand a full working load of 875 kgs with minimal deflection, & up to 1750 kgs with no sign of failure, over a trench span of 700mm.

Four location points measuring at 45mm in diameter allow compatibility with the Thor and Hammer Barrier range, as well as other heavy duty barriers seen globally.
Ø38.3MM
Four smaller holes can be found merged with the 45mm variants allowing compatibility with the DoubleTop and other standard metal fencing panels with 38.3mm diameter tubing.
SQUARED
Both 40x40mm & 60x60mm seen throughout the Base range has been included, allowing the possibility of the installation of standard Beacons at the same time as the Barrier system itself.

A New Product You Say?
We haven’t let the process of relocating to a new factory get in the way of our innovations department. We have been hard at work in the background, with the announcement of a brand-new product imminent.
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.
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 .
Melba Swintex manufacture with durable grade plastics these can be recycled more than once, and this is what we do!
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.

CLOSED LOOP RECYCLING
This solution from Melba Swintex aims to battle plastic waste heading to landfill, by taking old products at their end of life, processing them, and then blending each one to be mixed back into production to create brand new products.
This cycle ensures that with Melba Swintex you know precisely where your unwanted end-of-life products are going!

Introducing the New RightRamp from Melba Swintex. Designed in conjunction with the University of East Anglia, led by Dr Katherine Deane BSc PhD – Senior Lecturer in Research, and her team. The RightRamp has been specially designed and developed by focusing on people of varying abilities to overcome the issues that all current wheelchair ramps have.
Existing Styles
Current Wheelchair Ramps force the user to approach the ramp straight on due to its high-rise walls either side. This can cause major issues when there is insufficient clearance for a wheelchair user to approach the ramp, as well as posing as a potentially serious trip hazard.
New Style
The RightRamp has been designed to sit up against the kerb, rather than over it, which allows the form of the ramp to blend from the road surface up onto the footway. The organic curvature of the ramp allows multiple angle access when approaching the ramp from both the road works, and the footway.
An even distribution of Anti-Slip Conical Technology over the entire upper surface of the ramp prevents any slips in dry and wet conditions. When tested to BS 7976 results show no significant slip hazard.
4 completely recycled weights are fixed on the underside of the ramp that not only help anchor the ramp down, but also prevent the ramp from sliding by implementing Anti-Slip Conical Technology, and dramatically increases the ramps compression strength.
After extensive testing at the University of East Anglia, it was concluded that a 9mm tapping rail guided the visually impaired with ease, without creating a potential trip hazard for pedestrians, or issues for wheelchair users.
Kerb Heights
A series of trials were conducted at the University of East Anglia to determine the precise form that allows the smoothest transition onto and off the ramp for varying kerb heights. Working with manual & electric wheelchairs that consisted of both pneumatic and SRT tyres, the new design allows a wheelchair user to transition seamlessly onto and off the ramp at various heights.
The RightRamp boasts a variety of Benefits & Features, which are too many to contain within one email. Head over to the dedicated product page for the RightRamp to discover the story of the ramp, and what makes it stand out from the rest.
