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.
From the 9th to the 11th of December we will be showcasing our vast product range at the Gulf Traffic 2019 event in Dubai. For 3 days we welcome you to come and discuss the opportunities that we have to other, as well as any ideas or queries that you may have.

Introducing the all new environmentally friendly Tuff Tread. A completely recyclable trench cover that conforms to the latest HAUC regulations. Manufactured from HDPE with a PVC skirting, this single-man lift cover is perfect for use as a Footway Board in utility & general street works.
Tested in accordance to the latest HAUC regulations under the full guidance of Lloyds British, an accredited testing house with over 200 years experience in this field. The Tuff Tread can withstand a full working load of 400 kgs with minimal deflection, & 800 kgs with no sign of failure, over a trench span of 700mm. See the video above to find out more.
The materials used in the manufacturing of the Tuff Tread are 100% recyclable which dramatically reduces the products ending up in landfill by using our closed loop recycling opportunity. Each Tuff Tread when recycled, can be used to manufacture: new products, cone bases, or even a new skirt for another Tuff Tread.
Current covers are manufactured from GRP, which is composed of fine strands of glass fibre that are a severe irritant for skin. When the material breaks, there is a potential risk the glass fibres can become airborne, which poses a serious risk to existing respiratory problems.
Existing GRP Trench Covers can break and fracture easily, so therefore must be replaced regularly. It is extremely difficult to recycle GRP, and due to this, most GRP products end up in landfill at their end of life.
The Tuff Tread uses materials that have a high strength-to-density ratio. They are proven to last longer than GRP products. The material does not splinter, nor pose an irritant threat when exposed to contact with the skin. Maintenance of them is easy, and they can be wiped or washed clean if and when required.
Closed Loop Recycling
Melba Swintex has a 100% commitment to the environment and due to this, offers a closed loop recycling opportunity on the new Tuff Tread and all of our existing products. For more details on this, and how you can improve your carbon footprint, get in touch using the link below:
God like strength combined with Lightning fast production.
The NEW Thor Barrier is a highly robust and protective Barrier that can be deployed to guide vehicles and pedestrians on to the correct path when required. Over engineered to produce great strength, you’d need the HULK to knock it over when used with the 28 kg Footplate.
So why call it the Thor Barrier?
THOR V THOR
Thor – Norse God and member of the Avengers is renowned for his incredible strength.
As strong as any Norse God. Reinforced with metal interior tubes and attached to two 28 kg feet, this has to be the strongest Barrier there is.
Thor is also renowned for summoning lightning bolts with the help of his mighty hammer, Mjolnir.
No need for a magic hammer, Melba Swintex has invested heavily in high-tech machinery so that we can offer LIGHTNING FAST production & lead times.
As mighty as Thor is, and he is mighty, he is even MIGHTIER when he works with his friends the Avengers.
Just like Thor, this barrier values his friends and it connects together using the high strength Thor Hook.
Thor brings the power of the storm.
When the storm hits, this barrier is not moving!

The New 250mm High Reflective Vision Barrier made for the European Market
Don’t make us call it the EuroVision!!
(If you can think of better name please let us know )
Introducing the new reflectively enhanced Barrier system with a depth of 250mm retroreflective area. The Vision Barrier can connect to either itself or other existing barriers using the various attachment methods on offer.
Why 250mm?
Various Standards in many European countries specify a depth of a minimum of 250mm for the top reflective area, and why not have a more reflective product? It’s safer for everyone. The spindles can even be made reflective for extra, extra visibility.
The Geeky Bit
Facility to fit a 600×450 Courtesy Sign.
High Reflective Sleeving (360°) on two vertical spindles for greater visibility can be fitted.
Cross-Trench Support can add greater stability.
Q-Clip support for barrier to barrier connection.
Hook & Eye connection to other barriers.
Compatible with Master & Gate barriers.
Corporate Colours & Identity
Corporate identity is as important on the roadside as it is on high-visibility garments. The EuroVision can be colour coded, and/or embossed, to suit your corporate identity. We can match Pantone references, which can make your brand identity stand out and creates an increased reduction in Barriers being stolen or misappropriated.
