ITPL relies on Stertil Dock Products to support 24/7 operation
installation of 32 loading bays from Stertil Dock Products to ensure the efficient loading and unloading of 160 vehicles every day. Vehicles arriving at the ITPL complex,
O
which include 40 foot curtain sided and box containers, deliver and collect palletised loads with an average weight of one tonne per pallet. When originally constructed, the ITPL warehouse incorporated 16 loading bays featuring Stertil loading bay equipment. This original installation performed well in a demanding application over many years which led to the decision to install similar equipment to support a recent 14 bay extension to cope with increasing throughputs. The Stertil equipment installed within the new extension includes the latest generation of S-series swing-lip dock levellers. Providing a dynamic load capacity of six
tonnes, these levellers automatically adjust to the changing floor height of the vehicle during loading and unloading operations, even if the vehicle is unevenly loaded. Stertil also supplied and fitted its W-series
curtain dock shelters to ensure exceptional performance of the loading bays. These shelters combine sturdy aluminium frames and strong reinforced curtains to provide optimal sealing between vehicles and the warehouse building. To complement the energy saving properties of the dock shelters, Stertil also
installed insulated doors from its Thermadoor range. These doors offer a choice of insulation levels including higher value insulation for applications where temperature control is critical. Completing the range of Stertil dock products installed at the ITPL warehouse are L-shaped rubber bumpers which effectively prevent damage to the loading bay caused by reversing vehicles.

W20 steel frames bringing new business
The roll out of the W50 TB thermally broken steel frame system – which captures the classic appearance of the ubiquitous W20 profiles, while delivering contemporary standards of energy performance – has been gathering pace as building activity across the
UK recovers from the disruption of the pandemic. First introduced in 2016, W50 TB windows and doors are now being offered by most members of the Steel Window Association; and are finding applications in both high specification projects and the refurbishment of larger properties including hotels, offices and public buildings.
