Armco Direct
Armco barriers are an excellent way of offering maximum protection to pedestrians, buildings, equipment and expensive machinery.
Whether it’s intended or not, when a moving vehicle collides with something, it has the potential to wreak havoc, causing costly damage and injury in the process.
Constructed from the toughest steel, Armco barriers are galvanised to BS 1461 standards and are exactly what’s needed to stand in the way of a moving vehicle, taking the brunt of the impact and protecting whatever lies behind it.
When you install an Armco barrier in a warehouse, car park, shop front, pedestrianised area or side of a private road, you know that no moving vehicle is getting past it, no matter how hard it tries.
Reasons Armco Barriers are used
Here are ten popular industrial ways to use Armco Barriers for protection:
- In front of shops and retail outlets to prevent ram raiding and theft.
- To protect pedestrianised areas from out of control vehicles or acts of terrorism.
- Used in agriculture to segregate and contain livestock, where fencing may not be as effective.
- To protect warehouse equipment, workers, pallet racking, wall structures and shelving from collision with a forklift.
- Used in warehouse loading bays to prevent injury to workers when loading and unloading HGVs.
- Used in car parks for crash barrier protection and to ensure vehicles only go where they’re supposed to.
- For tree protection on building sites where trees are present and the local authority has stipulated that they must be protected from damage.
