The right dock shelters can greatly help ensure optimal energy use – but also so much more

Submitted by T Bennett on Tue, 03/07/2023 - 16:54

In any discussion of how your organisation can best equip its loading bays and other areas of its premises to help ensure the utmost efficiency and productivity, you are unlikely to be able to avoid touching on the subject of dock shelters for long.

The ‘headline’ benefit of a dock shelter is the effective sealing-off of gaps between a docked vehicle and a loading bay. One reason why it is so important to achieve this optimal seal between an internal and external environment, is the role this can play in lowering energy consumption.

But as an organisation, you will struggle to select the most appropriate dock shelters – whether with energy use or any other priority in mind – if you are not well-informed on the various types of dock shelters available.

 

So, here is a quick rundown of the options we can design, manufacture and install here at Loading Systems, and the details that could make them relevant to your firm’s loading bays: 

 

Cushion dock shelters, which are well-suited to use with vehicles – such as those from a single dedicated vehicle fleet – that do not vary much in size

 

Curtain dock shelters, which can be an industry-leading solution for sealing off all openings around a vehicle, when the vehicles that use your loading bays vary greatly in their dimensions

 

Curtain dock shelters with special foam core, which are highly durable dock shelters well-suited to vehicles that rise and lower over extreme distances

 

Inflatable dock shelters, which represent the most effective way of sealing between the vehicle and a warehouse. These are highly energy-efficient dock shelters that seal even the smallest gaps
