Dock Seals

Inkema's ABFE / ABFM / ABFR refrigerated dock seals have been specially designed for refrigerated warehouses, where perfect insulation of the loading point is required and hygiene must be preserved, preventing the entry of any element during the loading and unloading of goods.

The seals are made up of foam cubes with a high recovery rate lined with a PVC-coated polyester fabric tarpaulin. Thanks to the fringes welded on the enveloping canvas, these foamed dock seals are more resistant to the continuous friction produced by the manoeuvres of coupling the lorry against the sock seal.

When a vehicle begins to approach the loading bay to unload, it leans on the dock seals and compresses it. The result is the perfect adaptation of the dock seals to the vehicle box, blocking all entry of air and external elements

The result is the ideal adaptation of the dock shelter to the vehicle body, obstructing both the entry of air and elements from the outside to the inside.

In the case of the ABFE / ABFM dock seals, the height of the sliding roof can be adjusted to different vehicle heights. 

Cushion Materials

The set consists of two side cushions filled with foam rubber, and a top cushion made of foam rubber, which forms the roof. The side cushion blocks are PVC covered and screen-printed with stripes, providing visual support for manoeuvring lorries.

• They are covered with 0.5mm thick black PVC canvas, they are highly resilient and resistant to the friction of truck bodies, adapting perfectly to the truck body.
• They are also highly resistant to adverse weather conditions, making them even more durable.

Safety

All Dock Seals are equipped with vertical reflective bands that make it easier for drivers to manoeuvre, and avoid collisions that could damage the facility and the vehicle.

Prepared to ensure optimum watertightness.

At INKEMA we offer different solutions such as:

- ABFR: this is our dock seals  with fixed roof designed to fit perfectly to the truck body.

- ABFM / ABFE: Our dock seals with adjustable roof have been designed to adapt perfectly to the lorry, offering a lowering range of the upper canvas up to 1000mm, helping to maintain optimum insulation.

The ABFE dock seal has an electric top sheet drive while the ABFM has a manual drive. 

Our refrigerated dock seals are intended to provide a good level of insulation inside the facility when the truck is in the loading and unloading position, thus preventing the entry of air and outside elements.

We offer a number of optional features for ABFE / ABFM / ABFR refrigerated dock seals that allow your customers to personalise the dock seal to suit their needs and requirements.

For example, the possibility of adding truck guides to the loading dock. Please contact your sales representative for more information.
