That BOUNCED a Forklift. #safety #construction #forklift #heavyequipment #shorts

What happens here

The representative further elaborates on the benefits of the Nolene polymer, stating that it 'saves forklifts' and 'saves your concrete' by preventing pulverization that would occur with traditional concrete barriers. He also mentions the protection of personnel. He shows examples of repeated impacts in loading dock scenarios and explains that the barrier can be hit 'time and time again' without needing maintenance or replacement, contrasting this with the micro-hits that steel barriers would endure, leading to eventual concrete pulverization.

What they say

Hide

forklifts. Yes, sir. It saves your assets and it saves your concrete and it will protect your people. So, now as we're looking at these micro hits like this, tell me about that, will you? Yeah, so these will happen 20 times a week that nobody will see and from this impact those vibrations, especially if it's steel, will travel down to the concrete and it will pulverize the anchors that the concrete's in. So, what we do is we manage that energy differently, eliminate that vibration so these can happen time and time again. What is this material made out of that it's handling this material, Kevin? >> It's a polymer, it's called Novolin. They don't let us know exactly how the sausage is made, but it's an oil-based resin that we extrude into these formula little sections here. So, there's no concrete filler inside of these at all? >> No, the only steel that we use is going to be right here at the base plates. Where do you guys find out more information on these things, Kevin? >> You can go to www.bollplan.com or you can reach out to me directly and ask me any questions. We've got regional reps like myself all around the country for your boots on the ground and what we can do is travel to your locations and walk the facilities with you guys and conduct a safety audit to see what we
