ALL NEW Driveway Board from Melba Swintex

The Driveway Board is the first blow moulded board of its type. Tested under strict laboratory conditions, the board has been approved to the current HAUC specification. As well as it’s great strength and durability, the board is also 100% recyclable.

Sophisticated design on the underside of the board, complete with high-strength bars supply additional strength resulting in the board capable of supporting heavy loads. With the addition of a deavy-duty PVC skirt that adds unparalleled grip to prevent movement of the board.

All materials used on the driveway board are 100% recyclable. By using Melba Swintex closed-loop recycling this eliminates sending the boards to landfill, each Driveway Board when recycled, can be used to manufacture new products, cone bases, or even a new skirt for another Driveway Board.

With safety at the forefront, careful research & design has been focused on the top surface pattern to ensure the best distribution of detail to allow a good grip for both footwear and tyres. Directional arrows have also been implemented to communicate the correct orientation of the board.

Tested in accordance with the latest HAUC regulations, the Driveway Board can withstand a full working load of 875 kgs with minimal deflection, & up to 1750 kgs with no sign of failure, over a trench span of 700mm.

1200 x 800 Tuff Tread

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.

For more information including test reports and datasheets:
Click here for the Tuff Tread web page.

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:
