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.
