Atlas Double Traffic Barrier

Atlas™ Double Traffic Barrier is designed to withstand repeated impacts from some of the largest and heaviest workplace vehicles in busy, large-scale airport operations.

This high-strength, heavy-duty barrier has been purpose-engineered for airports with input from the British Airports Authority.

Typically used to protect baggage conveyors, floodlight masts, pier and charging units, Atlas Barriers are ideal for any heavy-duty environment requiring world-class impact protection.

Available in numerous lengths, and in yellow, black and grey as standard. Multi-directional posts ensure maximum flexibility and a tailored fit around all equipment and into any location. A fully modular system means rails and posts can be quickly and easily replaced in-situ, without removing adjacent barrier sections. Suitable for heavyweight vehicles with an impact height of 205 – 745mm.

Product uses

Impact protection

Designed to withstand heavy impact from airport specific vehicles such as fully laden baggage tugs, where the forces at play in extreme-weight environments could cause considerable damage.

Impact diversion

Rotating wear collars deflect angled-impact from extreme weight vehicles, helping to defend against repeat glancing blows that cause expensive on-going repair and maintenance costs.

Enhanced floor preservation

Heavy duty self-undercutting anchors, working with the absorption system to give greatest resistance to pull-out forces and preserve expensive flooring.

Extreme force protection

The advanced engineering features in the Atlas range are specially designed to absorb forces that would buckle or break steel or lighter-weight polymer products.

Ramp test - Atlas Double Traffic Barrier

PAS 13 is the only code of practice for safety barriers in the industrial workplace. PAS 13 advises that safety barrier testing should be dynamic, consistent and independently verified. See how Atlas Double Traffic Barrier performances under a 90° impact ramp test.

Pendulum test - Atlas Double Traffic Barrier

This is a 90° dynamic pendulum test to stimulate a real-world airport impact scenario. See how our Atlas Double Traffic Barrier performs.
