Our customer is a family business passed on from one generation to another. They have invested heavily in the factory and continue to do so, both with it staff and its facilities and we are pleased to be a part of that. Due to this investment and forward thinking they have seen exponentially growth in the last 5 years.

Armo Specialist Installation team have replaced the existing Dock Shelters with the new Armo Inflatable Dock Shelters. This gave the client a fast-optimum seal for a wide range of vehicles and with the low air movement also catered for ambient temperature required when delivering temperature-controlled food products.

Armo Inflatable Dock Shelter model ARIS

The ARIS inflatable dock shelter is growing in popularity as more comprehensive control of vehicles and equipment becomes available. The frame size is like that of a retractable shelter, but the narrow side curtains conceal deflated polyurethane inflatable cushions; the head is similar.

The use of inflatable seals works very simply; the vehicle arrives at the dock usually with an external traffic light showing green, when the warehouse operative is alerted to the presence of the vehicle. Once the fan is energised the cushions fill with high volume, low pressure air and maintain steady contact on the sides and roof of the vehicle providing a good tight seal, reducing the ingress of the elements and keeping in expensively generated warm or cooled air.

Although inflatable seals are made to standard dimensions Armo also provides a service to make special sizes to fit to existing buildings and special applications.

Armo has many year’s experience in the use of integrated systems for loading bays, the ARIS is commonly initiated by the door control buttons and linked to the operation of external LED traffic lights, to provide safe and efficient control of the loading bay.
