Bespoke yardramps
Thorworld Industries has detailed some of the reasons why its customers require bespoke yardramps, to highlight the importance of tailor-made solutions to meet individual customers’ specific logistics needs.
“Safe and effective loading depends on providing the right equipment for the environment,” explains MD John Meale. “Our standard range of yardramps is highly versatile, yet no two loading environments are exactly the same and there will always be customers who need something more exclusive.”
According to Thorworld, yardramp dimensions are the biggest driver for bespoke design, with the nature of the customer’s goods necessitating wider ramps or longer ‘level-off’ sections. “A wide ramp is crucial for items such as agricultural, trailers or tracked equipment, whereas a longer ‘level-off’ section is often preferred for long products such as carpets or insulation panels,” adds Meale.
The size or nature of the yard space might also preclude the use of a standard ramp.
