Racking protection
Protect essential warehouse racks and storage infrastructure from impact damage and downtime with A-SAFE racking protection.
Protect your racking
Impacts from vehicles, palleted goods and materials handling equipment can damage and weaken warehouse racking.
Damaged, quarantined racks cause operational disruption and costly warehouse downtime.
Cumulative racking damage or heavy impacts can result in catastrophic racking collapse.
Keeping your racking safe from damage
Protect vulnerable rack ends
Turning points at the ends of racking aisles can be impact hotspots. Rack end guardrails and bollards can soften sharp corners and deflect frequent glancing blows from turning forklift trucks. Our warehouse safety experts will help to identify high-risk zones in your facility.
Prevent damage to rack legs
RackGuards prevent impact and scrape damage to the front and sides of rack legs during loading and unloading. The health and structural integrity of every rack leg can be monitored and analysed 24/7 by the A-SAFE RackEye system, providing real-time damage detection and around-the-clock visibility.
PAS 13: your guide to warehouse safety
PAS 13 is an independent global benchmark for the installation and testing of workplace safety barriers. It was produced by the British Standards Institution in partnership with leading international companies including Nestlé, Mars, and DHL. Learn more about the PAS 13 code of practice.
Revolutionary rack monitoring technology
RackEye™
RackEye offers an intelligent solution to warehouse safety. It monitors pallet racking 24/7 and instantly notifies warehouse management when an impact occurs. The system also digitizes racking management with guided inspections to EN15635:2008 via the RackEye App, then provides automated analysis of hotspots and risk areas.

Why choose polymer racking protection?
Flexible industrial polymer and patented engineering absorbs and disperses impact forces to protect fixings and prevent floor damage.
Engineered with built-in memory to flex and fully recover from impacts, unique polymer design protects against costly barrier and vehicle damage.
Self-colored, non-corrosive and UV protected, advanced polymer guardrails stay visible, do not rust and never need painting, saving you time and money.
RackGuard™ rack leg protectors
RackGuard™ is designed to protect rack legs and uprights against front, side and scrape impacts from vehicles. It works by absorbing and deflecting impacts and transferring energy around the rack leg rather than through it.
