Damage and Downtime 

Damage doesn’t just happen once.
The same high-traffic areas get hit again and again, leading to ongoing repairs, downtime, and safety risk.

Protect Your Facility

Essential machinery
Essential machinery

Repairing or replacing high-value industrial machinery can be difficult and exceptionally expensive. Downtime and reduced capacity can make it difficult to meet customer demand.

Vital building equipment
Vital building equipment

Damage to utilities can lead to power outages and impacts to equipment such as sprinkler systems can ruin large volumes of stock. Operational disruption can reduce output and have massive implications for business loss.

Material handling equipment

Damaged vehicles reduce fleet operating capacity and repairs can be costly. Where vehicles are hired, damage from impacts will incur charges for repair or replacement.

Keeping Your Assets Safe From Damage

Impact zones

The impact zone of a guardrail is the part that connects with the vehicle during an impact. If a guardrail is too low, vehicles with a greater ground clearance may drive over it.

Impact resistance

Impact resistance

Impact ratings allow you to assess the impact resistance of the guardrails you choose and ensure the level of protection is adequate for your facility. 

Bollards Machinery Equipment Protection

Accessibility

Certain assets – such as fire safety equipment – must be easily accessible. Safety bollards offer robust protection from vehicles, while also providing unhindered access.

Making the Safest Workplaces for Your People

Choosing The Right Safety Barrier For The Job

Choosing the right barrier

Vehicle weight and speed, impact height, and angle of impact are just some of the factors to consider when choosing guardrails that are fit for purpose. 

Using gates to improve pedestrian safety

Self-closing swing gates encourage people to stop and look for traffic or other hazards before stepping beyond the safety of walkways. 

Planning and protecting walkways

Planning and protecting walkways

Walkways should follow desire lines as closely as possible to discourage pedestrians from taking shortcuts. Safety barriers should be installed to define walkway boundaries and protect against straying vehicles. 

PAS 13: your guide to pedestrian safety

PAS 13 is an independent global benchmark for the installation and testing of workplace guardrails. It was produced by the British Standards Institution in partnership with leading international companies including Nestlé, Mars, and DHL. Learn more about PAS 13 pedestrian safety best practice.

Why Consider Polymer Protection?
