Transport

Transport

"Increasing focus on Safety as well as Operating Efficiency is at the heart of any Transport project for both public and private applications. These can often be seen as conflicting objective especially when balanced with the needs of meeting the legislative demands for lower environmental impact. MacLellan Rubber takes a different view and considers all of these to be complimentary and mutually supporting.



The legislation behind public safety in Transport applications, continues to develop at a significant pace. Focusing on reducing risks to people and the environment in the event of catastrophic failure and minimising impact from the production process itself. MacLellan is vigilant in monitoring the expectations that Transport manufacturers and Legislators have for their equipment, and has experience of supplying Polymer materials and Sealing solution across all aspects of the Transport industry, whether for increased resistance to more aggressive media such as oils and cleaning fluids, reduced risk from toxic smoke fumes or spread of flames, reduced risk of technical failure from static shock or electrical discharge, or simply the ability to recycle material at the end of life.

MacLellan constantly strives to be at the forefront of Polymer material and Sealing product development with products approved and independently tested to IS0 45545, BS6853, NFF16-101, ASTM E662 and E162.
