Armo (UK) are very proud to be working with such a renowned Multinational manufacturer of household products. They company is an innovator in what they do, and its roots still lie in being a family business. They work hard every day to make quality products and services that improve people’s lives, now and for generations to come.

Armo (UK) have installed a new Loading bay to their site in West Thurrock, Armo (UK) have been involved from design to completion.

Armo (UK) manufactured and installed the following:

Modular Dock ARMD

Modular Dock are manufactured complete with robust support legs complete with base plates and bolted down on a concrete base. To prevent any fall off hazard from the modular dock, 1100mm high hand railing complete with central knee bar and bottom kick plate are fitted to all exposed sides. Then a Swing Lip Dock Leveller was installed, with an extended reach over tail lifts and gives them precise control.

Armo Swing Lip Dock Leveller model ARSL

Armo Swing Lip Dock Leveller gives the client a robust design and construction. The platforms are made from 6/8 mm tear plate steel, supported by a minimum of 8 longitudinal beams to strengthen the deck but still allowing it to twist through its length to cater for vehicles that are out of level with the Loading Bay.

ARSR Retractable Dock Shelter

The Retractable Dock Shelters cater for a mixed vehicle fleet with curtains that extend in from the sides and head allowing a vehicle to push through and keep the worst of the elements at bay. The curtains are designed to flex but maintain contact with the rear of the vehicle to maintain the seal.

Salvo Safety Systems

Salvo Safety Systems is a trapped key system ensures vehicles are securely docked before loading can take place and loading bay securely isolated before drivers can return to their vehicles and drive away.

ARTR LED Traffic Lights

ARTR LED Traffic Lights are for the loading bay. The traffic lights were red over green LED lights, provided in fully sealed black moulded units, complete with small sun visors. These are interlocked to the loading bay, so the light shows green when the door is closed and red whenever the door is open.

Loading Dock Buffers model ARDB

Loading Dock Buffers are made from heavy duty solid rubber, fixed to a prime and painted solid steel backing plate using M24 fixings and the plate in turn is welded in position to provide a long lasting solid fixing.

Model ARBD Wheel Alignment Guides & Trailer Landing Plates

Wheel Alignment Guides & Trailer Landing are manufactured with soft radius bends and are supplied for installing centrally to the loading bay, circa 2000mm from the dock face. The reversing vehicle slots between the guides ensuring that the vehicle docks safely and centrally onto the loading bay.

AROD Insulated Sectional Overhead Door

The AROD Insulated Overhead Sectional Door tracks are our galvanised steel ‘J’ type, which are designed to give free and easy running for bearing rollers. These tracks are mounted onto a heavy-duty galvanised jamb angle. The perimeter of the doors is fully sealed, as well as the intermediate panel joints, providing most effective weather seal to the door.

ARDL Dock Loading Light

ARDL Dock Loading Light was supplied and installed on the inside of the loading bay door which provides light into every corner of a docked trailer which improves visibility and helps prevent accidents occurring. The light is a 70W system, which was interlocked with the door so that when the door opens, the light will turn on and when the door closes, the light switches off.
