The Skid-Mate® is an air-dampened cushioning device that provides a fast, cost effective solution to the problem of protecting sensitive products from shock and vibration. Axis Packaging can mount the Skid-Mate® to your container or pallet base creating an air-ride cushion in place of the timber bearers. This eliminates the need for expensive air-ride trucks to transport your goods.

There are many advantages associated with using Skid-Mate® load bearers, including;

  • eliminating costly damage from handling hazards during shipment
  • providing protection during loading and unloading
  • automatically creating a 4-way entry base
  • being chemically inert
  • durability – under maximum load, the Skid-Mate®’s can endure nearly a kilometre of dragging over concrete.
