**What is a Dock Shelter?**
In the Vietnamese market, dock shelters are commonly referred to as "bộ túi khí trùm đuôi xe" or simply "bộ trùm túi khí." As the name suggests, their primary function is to seal the truck body, connecting it to the warehouse door, preventing heat loss, and blocking foreign objects from entering during loading and unloading processes.
### Functions of a Dock Shelter
A standard dock shelter is made with an aluminum frame, covering the area where the truck contacts the warehouse loading door. This ensures safe and efficient vehicle access to the warehouse, minimizing the risk of damage to both people and goods.
Additionally, it seals any gaps around the warehouse door, keeping out harmful environmental factors such as wind, dust, and insects. This is especially crucial for food and pharmaceutical warehouses, where strict hygiene standards must be met.
Dock shelters are also widely used in cold storage facilities. They help prevent cold air loss and stabilize temperature differences in these warehouses, ensuring consistent operation during high-frequency loading and unloading.
They are designed primarily for container trucks, providing a protective barrier and maximizing transport efficiency while minimizing food safety risks.
