Loading Dock Seals for Businesses in South Florida

Information may not be reliable

The first loading dock seals were installed in 1959 to help prevent outside elements away while trailers are being loaded and unloaded. Dock seals are foam pads that the trailer contacts against the dock bumpers; hence it forms a gasket-type seal around the three sides of the trailer. Loading dock seals quickly became popular all over the world as a very inexpensive way to conserve energy. But there was one problem about dock seals. 

Dock seals were subject to damage as these were the nature of their function and design. When heavy trailer traffic occurs, it reduces its sealing effectiveness, scruffy appearance, and high cost of repairing and replacing. 

Nowadays, advance technologies have led the dock seals into a new age that resists the mishandlings of trailers and dock conditions, and the result is greater durability and performance.
