An industry first from Melba Swintex, an all plastic Quick Fit Frame. Implementing the revolutionary Quick-Lock fasteners that are fitted as standard. These remain securely in place allowing a quick and easy sign face installation. The frame takes 300mm and 450mm centre sign plates. Black as standard with Corporate Branding and various all-through colour options available*.
Sign Faces
The Q-Frame comes with Quick-Lock fasteners installed at 300mm centres as standard, with the facility to move these into 450mm centre holes. These Quick-Lock fasteners have been carefully engineered to prevent any twists within the frame, ensuring an easy to install sign face every time.
Customisation
Manufactured in Black as standard, however with the facility to manufacture with your corporate branding colours without the need for any extra processes. As well as this, corporate branding can be embossed onto the front bottom leg of the frame reducing in theft. Minimum runs apply.
Deployment
Sophisticated form around the connection for the back legs ensures they do not come away in everyday use. With indication as to when the legs are in the open position, and a smart catch feature when in the home position.
Transport
Unique to the Q-Frame is its ability to stack with itself, resulting in safer transport and utilisation of space more efficiently. 80 pieces to a pallet, with lighter-in-weight than its metal counterpart means less fuel required for transport.
Testing
All portable road signs must conform to BS 8442:2015 to be used on British roads, and this includes the Q-Frame. The Q-Frame is the first quick fit frame variant that has been rigorously tested at the MIRA Wind tunnel facility, to determine the specific ballast requirement for each Wind Class.

In just over a months’ time the Boss Barrier will mark 7 years of great success within the Event Management sector. Having been the first of its kind manufactured from completely recyclable plastic, the Boss has become a staple product that has crossed the oceans to be found globally.
Manufactured from durable materials resistant to high impact forces, which are non-conductive, and contain no sharp areas that could cause serious harm, the Boss brings a modern touch to an outdated system.
Coloured in Black as standard with fully rotatable feet, the barrier can be branded with corporate identification, as well as the facility to hold signage & advertisement boards.

Introducing the Holiest of Holy Bases, the New Multifit Base. Taking the aesthetics of the standard Fence Bases seen globally and fusing together with a plethora of hole sizes for various types of demarcation. The 18kg Base will be sure to support your temporary work requirements.
Ø45MM
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.
CUSTOMISE IT
We dedicate a lot of attention to customisation options, and with this being a Melba Swintex product, this is certainly the case. Each end of the Multifit can be coloured to your branding options, as well as the feature to emboss your corporate identification on the top face. Stacking is easy with no pallets required, and 2 forklift slots allow easy transportation in bulk quantities.
The Cylinder range from Melba Swintex is a quick-to-install, simple solution for a temporary walkway, cycle lane, or similar. The highly durable Cats-Eye Base secures into the ground, and with a simple twist, the cylinder is locked into position. All cylinders come supplied with a highly prismatic sleeve which gives a complete 360° visual indication, with the option of custom printing if desired.
SWINBAC
A self-righting Cylinder with little to no maintenance required. The construction at the base of each Swinbac Cylinder implements an elastic banding housed within a tough and durable chamber. When the Cylinder is hit at with force, the elastic allows the Cylinder to flex over on itself, and then immediately self-right to its vertical position.
KINGPIN
A lightweight cylinder that is perfect for managing the direction of traffic. Manufactured to be tough and durable, with little to no maintenance. The Kingpin is the simplest of Cylinders, designed to release when struck with impact, which can then easily be reinstalled once again. A permanent lock can also be implemented if required.
FLEXI
The Flexi Cylinder is a one-piece Cylinder that is capable to self-right when struck with force. Its concertina like design allows material to compress at the base of the Cylinder from any angle, then due to the memory of the material, returns to its original form.
ARIANE & PHOENIX
The Ariane implements the twist-lock mechanism seen on the existing Cylinder range allowing the Cylinder to be locked into the Melba Swintex Cats-Eye Base, whereas the Phoenix has a flat base bundled with a locking bolt and nut. Handles have been implemented to allow greater grip for when attaching the Cylinders to their base, as well as the option to emboss with company branding.
All Cats-Eye Bases can be supplied with anchor bolts, or adhesive pads to ease the installation.

A Barricade that provides tremendous strength and restraint ensuring safety on site. An evenly distributed number of holders provide various arrangements for your road lamps.
HAMMER
The smoother of the two, the Hammer has a clean top-rail providing an alternative method to attaching the required road lamp, yet still supplying the great strength that is required.
15KG FOOTPLATE

The ongoing fight against COVID-19 is seeing new ways in how we live and interact with one another. Our range of products provide various solutions to ensuring that the 2-metre social distancing we should all be implementing is encouraged and provided. We do specialise in barriers after all.
BARRIERS
The 2-metre range of temporary barriers are already being implemented outside supermarkets. The vast majority incorporate a courtesy sign area in which we can digitally print your message for extra communication.
SIGNS
The Q-Sign range is a common sight around road works; however, we offer the ability to print custom sign faces to allow businesses to get their message and brand across. The use of highly prismatic material ensures your sign is seen.
SEPARATORS
Our range of separators are ideal for creating that perfect divide and are already being implemented within COVID-19 testing facilities up and down the country.
CONES & DELINEATORS
For that gentle reminder, we offer smaller-in-size products with a large range of Cones and Delineators that allow quick deployment, with the facility to have your message printed onto the product.

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.
After the addition of the HOG600 to the Melba Swintex Separator range, the number one request that customer presented us with was an alternative to the short metal-framed panels that increased the overall height of the separator system. We listened.
The Mini-DoubleTop is a smaller variation of the DoubleTop, designed to locate into various barrier systems in order to increase their height. The robust design with additional reflective panels makes the HOG600 Chapter 8 compliant, whilst also providing a sound and stable setup ensuring public and workforce safety.
Like the existing DoubleTop, the Mini-DT incorporates a Hook & Eye connection which allows a fast & effective installation without the need for any additional parts or tools. With extra length on the connecting peg to ensure connection on uneven grounds.

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.

2 PIECE CONES

TRAFFIC BARRIERS
ALL MELBA SWINTEX PRODUCTS ARE 100% RECYCLABLE
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!
VISION 2027
Since September 1st, 2019, deliveries by Melba Swintex are 100% Carbon Neutral, with a goal in progress to be completely Carbon Neutral by 2027, as well as Melba Swintex incorporating a zero to landfill policy for 2027. More information on this, and on our continuous efforts going forward will be published soon.
