More »Overview
- Often industrial workplaces and warehousing will have areas busy with pedestrians and vehicles.
- Defining traffic routes and pedestrian routes is the best way of protecting personnel, buildings and equipment.
- Using the right protection for each application is key to protecting personnel, buildings and equipment. Traffic and personnel together requires something strong enough to stop the vehicle but also designed to guide and segregate people.
Benefits
- Real delineation of people and vehicles around buildings, machinery and potential hazards
- A physical barrier you can trust that will protect people and clearly segregate traffic routes
- The high visible nature (black and yellow colours, synonymous with danger or hazards) of the products, clearly marks out areas enabling vehicles and personnel to see at a glance where they should be.
- Different barriers are available to match the application. For example heavy duty traffic barriers and barriers with different impact heights.
Applications include
- Combined Traffic and Pedestrian segregation.
- Machine and equipment protection.
- Walkway protection from vehicles
- Guidance of vehicles.
The Following Barriers are examples available:
- Traffic Barrier with Pedestrian Rail Attachment is ideal for use around standard FLT’s with a 300mm impact height and a hand rail mounted behind to guide and protect pedestrians. The impact height can be altered to suit different vehicles.
- Traffic Plus barrier has the hand rail post coming through the traffic barrier. Requires less room than the Traffic barrier with PRA.
- Impact Barrier Plus is a double rail traffic barrier system with hand rail post coming through the traffic barrier. Very strong protection.
