Jetland Loading Ramps aims to provide easy access to a variety of products suitable to all agricultural needs
Agriculture can be complex, but Jetland Loading Ramps aims to make one part of the job easy.
Firstly, by offering a huge variety of ramps, farmers can shop with confidence knowing that something will be available to suit their individual needs.
Next, Jetland offers free delivery around Australia to any commercial address with loading facilities, while the company also has access to a network of depots where its products can be delivered.
For those within the vicinity of Melbourne, free pickup can also be organised from Jetland’s warehouse in the south-eastern suburb of Mordialloc – meaning a customer could be using their new ramp on the same day as it is purchased.
Its ramps are designed to be strong and robust enough to handle the heavy machinery moved around Australian farms such as tractors and excavators, while simultaneously being lightweight enough to ensure they are portable.
As a result, Jetland’s ramps are increasingly appealing to Australian farmers – along with more urban environments such as earthmoving contractors and plumbing businesses.
Its ramps can be divided into four different series – A, B, C and D – all of which are built to handle Australian conditions.
Jetland’s A Series ramps are suitable for rubber track machines and models are available with load capacities between 2 and 6 tonnes and in lengths between 2.5m and 4.5m.
The B Series is suitable for rubber track and rubber tyre machines. This is available in 2 to 6 tonne load capacities and 1.8m to 4.5m lengths.
Like the B Series, Jetland’s C Series is also suitable for both rubber track and rubber tyre machines but it offers an increased capability.
C Series ramps come with 4 to 21 tonne load capacities and 2.5m to 4.5m lengths.
Jetland’s heaviest duty offering, the D Series, is suitable for steel track, rubber pads on steel, rubber track and rubber tyre machines, and is available in 2.5m to 4.8m lengths.
These ramps are one of Jetland’s star attractions, having also recently been upgraded to support much heavier loads.
Designed by Japanese engineers, the D Series now supports up to 42 tonnes, where it was previously only rated up to 21 tonnes.
Jetland says this makes it the only 42-tonne rated loading ramp available in Australia and also highlights the company’s commitment to innovation.
While the nature of a customer’s machinery – such as its track or tyre style, overall weight and length – will largely determine which ramp is best suited, Jetland says there are also other factors to look at when making a decision.
The company says it is important for customers to consider the machine wheelbase when evaluating their ramp loading capacity.
Jetland also advises that a customer should choose a ramp with an internal width that is at least 5cm wider than the wheels or tracks of the loaded machinery.
Regardless of which path a customer ultimately goes down, they can be assured that high-quality aluminium in the ramps and various safety features have created a product which will meet their needs.
The Jetland team has ensured its ramps not only meet but exceed safety standards, firstly being fitted with safety pins to guarantee the ramp remains securely in place during use.
The ramps also feature anti-slip surfaces, helping to provide maximum traction for vehicles and machinery during both loading and unloading.
Other features available across various Jetland models include a non-skid surface, flat rungs for smooth loading and heavy-duty raised tread on flat rungs.
All Jetland ramps are also backed up by a 12-month warranty, giving users additional peace of mind in their purchase.
For a company that provides ramps for everything from ATVs through to 42-tonne machinery beasts, along with other items such as walk ramps, the choice can be overwhelming.
The choice of four different series, plus a host of models and sizes in each, means that Jetland’s expertise can be invaluable in helping farmers decide exactly what they need.
In addition to providing excellent customer support, Jetland’s website is also a significant resource.
Rather than just providing a generic catalogue, it is continually updated to reflect the stock which is physically available in its Melbourne warehouse.
This means that customers can browse and purchase with confidence, knowing what they see is what they can immediately get – rather than finding the perfect ramp before ending back at square one due to it being unavailable.
The company’s full range, along with delivery options, can be viewed online at www.jetlandramps.com.au, while its warehouse is located at the rear of 211-219 Boundary Road, Mordialloc.
