The environment is the new "buzz" word. So, we have developed a new range of environmental friendly van racking.
This new design means...
100% Recyclable Materials Aero dynamic for better fuel returns None corrosive parts for a longer working life. Universal design ensure transfer to new vehicles Lower weight for better fuel returns.
Of course, it's not all about the environment. This new efficiency doesn't just benefit the environment. With a lower impact on your fuel returns and a longer working life as got to be good news for any business.
So how did we achieve this?
The cross bars of our roof racks are rounded to reduce "drag". Having a large framework on the roof can act like a huge "air-brake". The noise often associated to roof racks is resistance. The air cannot flow past it quick enough. Harsh square corners of box section steel is usually the culprit, but it's not just an unpleasant noise. Resistance means your vehicle will be working even harder. Which of course means it is then "LESS Fuel Efficient". Rounded corners also reduces the drag in the physical sense too. The carried load is now less in contact with the roof rack. So dragging ladders etc off the rack is now even easier reducing the injury risk.
The weight of the rack also needs to be taken into account. Producing a roof rack from steel will ultimately be heavy. But every van has a weight limit. So what's the point reducing your weight limit by fitting a heavy roof rack? Again this will have a negative effect on fuel returns. Even when the rack is unladen it is still heavy and therefore making the van work harder for no reason at all! Our van roof racks are predominately produced from high grade aluminium. The same grade specified by N.A.S.A. Offering excellent strength to weight ratios. So our van roof racks are more fuel efficient than heavy steel ones.
Weight dispersion also seems to be neglected. All vehicles not just vans are produced from structural post. "A" post, "B" post , etc. These posts help disperse weight through the vehicle to the ground. Often you'll see a van roof rack with its mounting feet randomly positioned. Our van racks allow the mounting/dispersion feet to be placed where they can work the best, not welded static to a framework. The wider the mounting foot, the more weight it can disperse. Ours are 100mm most other van racks are only 50mm.
Some people ask, "Is it strong enough?" The ladders that you risk your life with, climbing 50ft high are produced from...aluminium. Prestigious and performance cars are often produced from aluminium. Each one of our cross bars has been tested to over 200kg.... So yes they are more than capable.
Being aluminium also ensures that it won't rust. Even galvanised racks will rust when the coating is penetrated. At best they only have a 15 year warranty. Ours are produced from high grade aluminium which will simple last forever!!!
As an added bonus. Our Van Roof Racks are very universal. So as the years roll by our aluminium van roof racks are not going to rust. So there's nothing stopping you transferring the rack to your next van making the cost efficiency very high. It's a no brainer!!
Our racks......
Can carry just as much if not more than a steel roof rack. They won't impede on Fuel returns unlike heavy steel roof racks They won't impede on the carrying capacity unlike heavy steel roof racks They won't rust unlike steel roof racks They have a longer life expectancy than steel roof racks They are aero dynamic reducing wind noise They can transfer to your next van.
Smart money works harder!
This rack will fit any van with a height clearance of 90mm and a length of 2000mm.
Mounting to the vehicle in four points with a weight dispersion foot print of 400mm
