The story behind Protect-it XL large format rack guards

Our Protect-it Stackable rack guards were released in 2004 and delivered world-first performance in plastic rack guards due to their patented, integrally moulded, curved energy absorbers. The modular nature of Protect-it Stackable (typically stacked 3 units high on an upright) provides versatility to accommodate a wide range of installation scenarios. Exceptional performance at an affordable price will ensure that our Stackable range continues to be the solution of choice for many customers. However, over the years we have received regular requests for a single-piece, large format rack guard solution. To meet this demand we have taken the patented impact absorbing technology that powers our Stackable guards and reworked it to create the new Protect-it XL large format rack guard range.
