The construction industry requires reliable solutions that streamline transport and protect materials from damage. Plastic construction accessories address these needs by offering durability, functionality and versatility. Transport spacers, as a key element of this category, ensure the safe movement of various construction materials – from panels and concrete slabs to hollow blocks and posts. Our plastic construction products combine innovative technical solutions with environmental care, meeting the demands of modern construction.
Plastic transport spacers in construction
Transport spacers are an essential element of construction logistics, available in various versions tailored to specific materials. Transport spacers for panels are characterised by a flat design with stabilising protrusions, ideal for layered stacking. Transport spacers for concrete slabs feature increased load resistance, allowing safe storage of heavy elements side by side. In turn, transport spacers for hollow blocks and transport spacers for posts are distinguished by special profiling that prevents material shifting during transport. Spacers for posts and pipes help to prevent the formation of white rust on the products.
The use of plastics in the production of transport spacers brings numerous benefits. Durability and resistance to mechanical damage allow for repeated use of the same components, significantly reducing logistics costs. Spacers are also resistant to changing weather conditions – they do not corrode, absorb water or crack in frost, making them ideal for outdoor use.
Most spacers on the market are made of polypropylene – a material with excellent technical parameters. Every manufacturer of plastic products ensures the appropriate quality of their items. Transport spacers are available in different sizes and colours, facilitating sorting by purpose or ownership identification. The weight of a single spacer typically ranges from several dozen grams to a few kilograms, depending on the application, while maintaining an optimal strength-to-weight ratio.
Use of transport spacers for panels in construction
Transporting and securing construction elements is a key logistical challenge in the industry. Transport spacers significantly improve this process by ensuring stable positioning of materials and minimising the risk of mechanical damage. In particular, transport spacers for panels protect delicate surfaces, while transport spacers for concrete slabs ensure safety when handling heavy components. Their use also enables optimisation of cargo space – precise stacking allows for transporting more materials while maintaining full safety.
In working with precast concrete, transport spacers play an especially important role. Concrete elements are prone to scratches and chipping when in contact with each other, and the use of proper spacers eliminates these problems. Additionally, the spacers enable air circulation between stacked items, accelerating the drying and curing of concrete.
Apart from transport spacers, other plastic construction accessories are also used in construction, such as reinforcement spacers, mounting pads or expansion elements. All these products form a comprehensive system of technical solutions that significantly streamline construction processes and improve the quality of work performed.
Summary
Plastic construction accessories, and in particular transport spacers, provide invaluable support to the construction industry. Their use translates into tangible economic benefits by reducing material damage, optimising transport space and enabling multiple uses. At the same time, thanks to their full recyclability, these products support the idea of sustainable construction.
Durability, functionality and versatility are key advantages of transport spacers and other plastic accessories. Their use is becoming a standard in modern construction, where not only the final result matters, but also the efficiency of logistics and assembly processes.
