Innovative transport technology & load securing for the precast industry

Our system solutions at a glance

R-Tech’s transport technology and load securing solutions make the transportation of components plannable and safe. This includes the right technology for loading, securing and handling, tailored to practical use and robust processes in day-to-day operations.

Below you will find an overview of the most important areas: Internal loader pallets as transport racks for the safe transportation of prefabricated parts, swap bodies for timber construction and swap bodies for concrete construction as system solutions for flexible logistics, the turning trestle as a turning device for prefabricated concrete parts and special pallets for special requirements. In addition, glass ILP for glass and the A Bock as a proven means of transportation are linked so that you can jump directly to the appropriate detail page.

Why R-Tech? Your experts for transport technology & load securing

In the modern precast industry, time and safety are the decisive currencies. The transport of precast concrete elements weighing several tons or voluminous timber construction elements does not forgive mistakes. As a specialist with many years of experience, R-TECH Stahlbau GmbH offers solutions that start exactly where standard systems reach their limits.

30 years of experience in precast concrete and timber construction

Our transport systems are not a product of chance, but the result of over three decades of close cooperation with the construction industry. We understand the structural challenges and logistical processes in your factory and on the construction site.

What sets R-Tech transport systems apart:

  • Maximum safety thanks to our own test procedures: We don’t just rely on calculations. Our inloader pallets and swap bodies are tested in practical stability tests to guarantee maximum stability under real conditions.

  • Durability thanks to robust steel construction: our products are designed for tough, daily use. For us, “Made in Austria” stands for manufacturing quality that minimizes maintenance costs for years to come.

  • Increased efficiency in logistics: thanks to innovative details such as our special plastic-coated safety sword, we avoid transport damage to your components and massively speed up the loading and unloading process.

  • Individual special solutions: Whether it’s a special turning frame or customized special pallets – we develop transport solutions that integrate seamlessly into your production flow.

The robust frames have been tried and tested worldwide and define new safety standards for loading and transportation based on our own test procedures.

Transport technology and load securing briefly explained

Key terms that often occur together in practice are linked below. These ten short questions will give you a quick overview of what the individual solutions from R-Tech are intended for and how they are used in finished part transportation.

An inloader pallet is a transport frame for the precast concrete industry and for the prefabricated timber construction industry. With inloader pallets, particularly high wall elements up to 3.5 m and above can be transported on public roads without a special permit. Thanks to the load securing and stability protection, inloader pallets are particularly efficient in long-term, heavy-duty use.

It is used when finished parts need to be stored and guided in a stable manner and transport needs to be organized in such a way that components arrive protected during the transport technology and load securing process.

Swap bodies are system solutions that optimize transport and save an average of 4 – 6 hours of downtime for the transport vehicle and driver. According to R-Tech, swap bodies are an important building block for the economical production of transportation technology and load securing.
Swap body is another name for swap body and is mainly used in Switzerland and southern Germany.

In this context, R-Tech describes solutions that can be set down and picked up again in the logistics process in order to make processes within transport technology and load securing more flexible.

For timber construction, swap bodies are described as a solution for the transportation of wall and ceiling elements, with a focus on safe handling in transport technology and load securing.
For concrete construction, R-Tech describes swap bodies as a heavy-duty solution that is designed for high loads in precast element transportation and thus supports transport technology and load securing.
The turning trestle is described at R-Tech as a turning device for particularly high wall elements when wall elements are to be moved from horizontal to vertical on the construction site, as part of the transportation technology and load securing.
When the safe and controlled erection or moving of concrete wall elements is a separate work step and the transportation technology and load securing must function properly.
Special pallets are special designs for special requirements. R-Tech offers a range of variants that are designed for special dimensions, heights or applications and therefore complement transport technology and load securing.
An A-frame is described by R-Tech as a proven means of transportation that supports safety for operators and cargo and can be adapted as required.
