Solutions to Protect the Food and Logistics Industry

The main difference lies in the elastic memory and the absence of maintenance. The metal protections, although initially robust, suffer from corrosion (rust) in humid or cold environments and transfer the impact force to the ground, damaging the concrete. The Adinso polyethylene, on the other hand, is designed to absorb impact and recover its original shape, eliminating the need for repairs, repainting, or replacement. Additionally, it is completely immune to corrosion and the action of aggressive cleaning chemicals, which results in a much lower total cost of ownership in the long term.

Yes, our polyethylene solutions are specifically designed with the high hygiene standards of the food industry in mind. The material is non-porous and resistant to moisture, which prevents the proliferation of bacteria and mold formation, critical elements under the HACCP system. Additionally, most of our designs (such as baseboards and barriers) feature curved shapes and smooth surfaces that facilitate water runoff and withstand cleaning with high-pressure water and chemical disinfectants. This ensures that the protection does not become a critical point of contamination.

The installation of our polyethylene barriers is designed to be as minimally invasive as possible and, fundamentally, to protect the underlying structure. Unlike rigid steel, which transmits the force of an impact directly to the anchoring point, polyethylene absorbs and dissipates the energy before it reaches the ground. This means that the likelihood of cracks, breaks, or loosening of the anchors in the concrete is drastically reduced, extending the lifespan of your pavement and structure. The installation is quick, modular, and performed with high-strength fasteners that ensure maximum hold.

Adinso fully trusts in the durability and quality of our thermopolymers. We offer a warranty that covers manufacturing defects and, most importantly, the functionality of the material to withstand impacts. Our main guarantee lies in the promise that, under normal industrial use conditions and impact accidents, the barriers will maintain their shape and visibility, eliminating concerns about corrosion or structural breakage that is seen with metal. We invite you to request the detailed technical datasheet of the specific product to learn about the certified resistance terms.

 Although we have a wide catalog of modular and standard products for the most common applications (pillar protection, shelving, and pedestrian aisles), our strength is custom design and manufacturing capacity. We understand that each logistics center or food plant has unique space and circulation challenges. If you have a specific need, such as protecting a machine with an irregular geometry or designing a specific passage system, our technical team can design and manufacture the perfect polyethylene solution that fully integrates into your installation.
