ProMat Show Video: Bedford Highlights FRP Platforms, Grating for Supply Chain Facilities

From manufacturing plants to warehouses, the supply chain industry utilizes a wide range of industrial facilities. ProMat brings together industry personnel to see the latest innovations. It’s the premier showcase of material handling, supply chain and logistics solutions in North America, and the Bedford booth was constantly busy as attendees checked out ReadySeries FRP modular structures. For platforms and crossovers, access ladders, stair towers, storage mezzanines and much more, the endless configuration possibilities of ReadySeries solutions cover every need. 

Check out this video for a look at the ProMat show and Bedford displays. 

Industrial Strength

People. Boxes. Carts. Forklifts. The constant activity in the supply chain industry puts a heavy strain on floors, walkways, guardrails, ladders and other structural elements. Movement logistics within each facility add to the need for well-engineered and properly installed safety structures and maintenance access platforms to protect people and equipment. 

ReadySeries materials were popular at ProMat because of their high strength and extreme durability in a variety of conditions. Made of fiberglass-reinforced polymer (FRP), ReadySeries components won’t corrode or warp. They can handle extreme heat, cold and moisture without a worry, and, for added safety, they don’t conduct electricity. No wonder ReadySeries is used in a broad array of applications and markets. For OSHA-compliant work platforms and any other structural need, using ReadySeries materials will ensure decades of performance.

Cost Effective

ReadySeries helps industrial facilities save time and money in an assortment of ways. The pre-engineered materials are stocked for quick shipping, so you don’t have to wait for custom fabrication. You can have a modular work platform, catwalk, maintenance access system and more shipped and installed within days rather than months. 

The savings on maintenance and repair costs because of the many FRP advantages also appealed to supply chain personnel. Because FRP includes integrated color, there aren’t repainting expenses each year. Plus, because ReadySeries structures last and last, you won’t have annual expenses replacing broken or corroded sections.
