Premium stop blocks for enhanced vehicle safety across industries

M & E Supplies, a leading supplier of high-quality stop blocks, has reintroduced its stop blocks to Africa, designed to improve vehicle safety in all industries including mining, transportation and logistics.

What are stop blocks?

Stop blocks are essential safety devices that prevent vehicles from rolling, either forward or backward, while stationed at worksites, loading docks or during road stops. Whether on a mine, a construction site or in transit, stop blocks provide a vital safety mechanism to ensure vehicles remain securely stationary, reducing the risk of accidents or damage.

Why stop blocks are essential

In industries like mining, where health and safety protocols are strictly enforced, stop blocks are a requirement for all vehicles entering or stationed on site.

Additionally, under South African traffic laws, vehicles of all types – including bakkies, delivery trucks and commercial vehicles – must carry stop blocks to ensure safety when parked, whether on the side of the road or while waiting to load or unload.

With their ability to securely immobilise vehicles, stop blocks provide peace of mind to businesses and prevent costly incidents.

Made for durability and reliability

M & E Supplies’ stop blocks are crafted from premium virgin plastic, offering superior strength and long-lasting performance. Unlike steel or wood alternatives – which are prone to rust, degradation and damage from harsh weather conditions – our PVC stop blocks are designed to withstand exposure to acids, oils, extreme temperatures and even fire. The robust material ensures the integrity of the stop block remains intact, providing reliable performance over time.

The innovative design of our stop blocks also ensures they are gentle on tyres, preventing any damage that could result from prolonged contact with other materials. Built to meet stringent industry standards and regulatory requirements, our stop blocks deliver both reliability and safety, making them the preferred choice for businesses across various sectors.

A trusted supplier for all industries

With a commitment to quality and safety, M & E Supplies continues to provide businesses across industries with the most dependable stop blocks available. Our stop blocks offer durability, strength and a cost-effective solution for companies seeking to comply with health, safety and legal requirements.
