Introducing our Slab Pallet Range

Mid and West Wales Welding of Machynlleth proudly introduces our unique design for the safer storage, moving and handling of paving slabs. This robust, fully galvanised steel slab pallet will revolutionise the way slabs are transported, handled and stored within your yards.

Key Benefits

The angled design and incorporated stay vastly improves occupational safety management by maintaining slab stillage
* The slab stillage design likewise significantly reduces losses from damage once the slab pack has been opened
* Easier and safer handling by hand and fork-lift machines alike
* Constructed to be both robust and weatherproof
* As a consequence of the robust and weatherproof construction, they represent a “one off” purchase

The Design

We were approached by Travis Perkins Ltd to design a pallet to facilitate easier movement and storage of slab
packs around their yards. The design was to allow for safer handling of the slabs on site and to minimise damage to the slabs once the pack was opened. The pallet was also to be robust enough to withstand heavy handling by forks and finished in such a way to protect it from the elements. In conjunction with Travis Perkins we designed three pallets, the bi-directional, tri-directional and tri-directional plus. These pallets are now used in every Travis branch nationwide, as well as other smaller builder’s merchants and County Council highway departments.
