Heavy-Duty Construction for Longevity
Designed for the secure transport and covering of laden containers, especially industrial skips, our Skip Net boasts a robust construction for a prolonged lifespan. Its flexibility allows it to adapt to different load shapes and accommodate changes in volume effectively.
Equipped with a reinforced border rope and tie chords, this net is made of high-tenacity polypropylene, ensuring durability in the transportation and covering of laden skips. The secure selvage edge adds an extra layer of safety.
Using Nets for Load Security
Unsecured or inadequately secured loads pose a continuous risk of serious road accidents. High loads obstructing traffic behind can lead to accidents, emphasizing the need for appropriately securing road vehicle loads to ensure the safety of all road users.
Beyond road user safety, it’s crucial to protect the load itself from loss, damage, and destruction. While general regulations like the Highway Code mention the obligation to secure loads, they lack specific details. For precise instructions on the most suitable load-securing methods, one can refer to technical regulations such as VDI 2700 ff. and VDI 3968.
