Melba 46 Cone with No Waiting and Euro Band Cones

The high-demand for the 1-Piece Cone family has never been as high, and it is therefore with great delight that Melba Swintex introduce the Brand-New MELBA 46 Cone.

Road cones sales take off

Categories Cones, roadcone, roadcone manufacturerTags , ,

Our Starlite roadcone was brought out as a lighter, more economical road cone than its heavier counterparts the Mastercone and Bigfoot roadcones. As a road cone manufacturer this gave our customers a great choice of light, medium and heavy roadcones suitable for all types of roads and weather conditions. Sales of the Starlite have steadily grown over the years but showed a 33% increase in 2014 compared to 2012. This year shows similar sales and with no down turn in the  sales of Bigfoot and Mastercone the Starlite seems to have created a market all of its own. http://www.melbaswintex.co.uk/starlite.php

#roadcone #cult following

The Starlite cone is a two piece cone, with it’s centre manufactured from virgin HDPE, and base from recycled PVC. The cone is 100% recyclable and is fitted with the Melba Swintex high performance prismatic Starlux® sleeve.

Blow moulded top with easy grip access.
100% thermoplastic recyclable base with anti-slip feature.

The Melba Swintex sleeves fitted on to the roadcones are the best in the business and are often specified in worldwide contracts and tenders.

They export to Australia, Canada, America, Hong Kong, Macau, Singapore and to many many other countries.

the Boss Barrier

Crowd Control.
the Boss Barrier

The new Boss Barrier used for Crowd Control Barriers and Event Management is now being ordered embossed and coloured, as well as in standard grey. Identification of product is a key reason to order the Boss Barrier compared to the standard metal crowd control barriers which are expensive to emboss and to powder coat. With the barrier taking off in the UK and enquiries from as far afield as Malta and Singapore, it looks like we’ll need the barriers to keep our crowds of customers back ! All our products are available with product identification methods… even the humble litter bin.
