Cushions and sealing shelters
Cushions and sealing shelters form a barrier between the inside and outside of an industrial building. They are widely used in loading docks. Let’s find out what they are used for and their benefits.
Cushions and shelters, what are they used for?
These devices are useful during the loading and unloading of goods. They prevent air, dust and moisture from building up during operations, and they also protect workers by blocking wind, extreme heat or rain.
Let’s take an example. It rains during loading. If there were no cushions or sealing shelters, rainwater would risk entering the warehouse or truck. Workers would be forced to work in the rain. This is both counterproductive and dangerous. The risk of slipping and falling is high. All this can be effectively avoided.
Multiple benefits
Installing cushions and sealing shelters prevents heat loss. These devices keep the temperature inside the building at an optimum level. This results in huge energy savings. Heating and cooling costs are reduced.
Cushions and ventilated shelters also protect sensitive goods from
- Contamination from dust or other dirt;
- Deterioration due to wide temperature fluctuations;
- Damage from moisture.
This prevents losses, which can be costly. Finally, the cushions and pouches reduce the risk of industrial accidents.

- Deck sealing systems: For optimum protection, we also have deck sealing systems, including the Pitmaster and VHLS models.
- Complementary solutions: We also offer a canopy to protect the headrest from rain, ice or snow. The main function of the Raingard head is to divert rainwater. This reduces the risk of water penetration.
