Modular docks

Midlands-based Chase Equipment designs and manufactures loading bay equipment. It ended last year by delivering a 9000kg capacity modular loading dock scheme to Warwick Chemicals.

The bespoke system is fitted with an electro-hydraulic dock leveller and marshalling area with access onto the modular dock by a static yard ramp. As part of the contract Chase Equipment fitted the dock scheme with 12m long safe access on both sides of the loading bay by means of a set of integrated rolling step units to allow safe working practices in securing a load. This was incorporated into the vehicle wheel guides and took into account the requirements of the articulated trailers in current operation.

The project reflects the company's ability to provide a tailored solution.
