Non-Highways Crash Barrier Systems – Explained

Constructed from heavy-duty galvanised steel with a corrugated box beam profile, our crash barriers combine strength and flexibility to absorb vehicle impact efficiently.
The 3.5m long beam sections (effective length 3.2m) overlap and bolt securely with M16 lap bolts, ensuring seamless continuity along the barrier run.
Barrier posts are available in both concrete-in and base-plated styles, adaptable to different site conditions including soft ground or concrete bases.
Untensioned design specifically for “off-road” use—not suitable for highway applications.
The corrugated profile flexes on impact, allowing fast-moving vehicles to be safely deflected along the barrier while stopping slower vehicles like forklifts quickly.
