It’s common knowledge among experienced drivers that parking lots are some of the most likely locations for cars to incur scratches, scrapes, dings, and dents. The busier and more crowded the parking lot, the greater the likelihood that damage will be inflicted on someone’s car. A public pool parking lot in mid-summer, a mall parking lot on a Christmas-season weekend, a high school parking lot at night after a home football game has ended – all are ripe spots for a smack on the fender. These venues, thankfully, often have excellent equipment designed to reduce accidents and the level of damage that accidents can cause. This equipment can include speed bumps, guard rails, steel pipe bollards, and directional and warning signs. Please take a few moments to read the following article concerning
bumper wrap, an additional, important piece of parking lot safety equipment that both reduces the chance of accidents as well as the damage level that results when parking lot accidents occur.
Naturally, business owners do not want vehicle damage occurring in their parking lots. Many in fact will go well beyond law-mandated safety measures and will purchase additional equipment to further help ensure that their lots are the scenes of as few dings, dents, and vehicle scrapes as possible. One important piece of such safety equipment is
bumper wrap. Also known as
column protectors,
post guards, and
pole protectors,
bumper wrap is
material handling equipment designed both to prevent vehicle accidents as well as lessen the damage caused by accidents when they occur.
Column wrap is highly visible vinyl wrapping that can be permanently placed around virtually any vertical, pole-shaped object that a car can be driven into or scrape against sideways. The high visibility of these
post protectors helps to prevent accidents by alerting drivers to the presence of these objects.
Bumper wrap, which also is often referred to as
wrap around column material, also reduces the level of vehicle damage that parking lot accidents can cause. This is chiefly because a sideways scrape against a vinyl
post protector causes considerably less vehicle marring that such a scrape against an uncovered, rough-textured concrete light pole. This
post guard vinyl also can be wrapped in sections right on top of each other so that a fixture such as a beam or post will be covered more thoroughly height-wise.
Wrap around columns typically come in extra-long, cut-to-fit rolls so that there is adequate bumper wrap material to cover a number of poles and other fixtures in any given parking lot.
The high efficiency of bumper wrap in reducing accident damage is by no means restricted to parking lots. Bumper wrap also is very effective at locales such as gas stations, drive thrus, and large warehouses. Also, in addition to protecting vehicles, bumper wrap also increases the longevity of the lights poles, bollards, posts, and beams that it is wrapped around. The
column wrap reduces accident-caused damage to these fixtures, and also, because it is UV-coated, also protects these objects against some of the long-term adverse effects of sunlight. It is the customer’s responsibility to verify correctness of fit for applications.
