Many vans have specialist racking systems installed nowadays – but are they safe?

Racking specialist Modul-System has launched a free load restraint safety check.

Fleets which call into one of Modul-Systems’ three service centres in York, Colchester and Wellesbourne in Warwickshire for the non-obligation assessment will have the following items looked at by a specialist:

  • Check brackets to see if there are enough, their condition and whether they are fitted correctly.
  • Check mounting points to ensure they are in working order and are able to distribute weight appropriately when the van is loaded.
  • Alert the customer to any potential hazards in terms of what they are carrying or the condition of their racking.
  • Assess whether they are overloading either their current racking or their van.
