Galvanized steel

Hot-dip galvanizing is a useful process for creating a robust barrier against oxidation and prolonging the life of the dock leveler.
Galvanized to last forever. the strength that supports every step
PFI produces a totally hot-dip galvanized steel version. In order to guarantee excellent galvanisation on every detail of the dock leveler, we have developed a product that does not require any welding. In fact, this version is made up of a frame and a fully bolted platform.

Aluminum

PFI produces aluminum hydraulic dock leveler. The advantages of using aluminum compared to steel are: the total absence of rust formation and simplified transport, due to the small size of the product. The structure of our aluminum dock levelers, with swinging lip, is provided with a forklift-eye, so that the pit installation is facilitated by the forklift. Thanks to the use of aluminum, ti provides more durability over time than standard dock levelers since it does not require surface finishes (paint galvanizing) and does not rust.
