Safety barrier specialist, A-Safe is
launching a new Armco barrier
made entirely from plastic. The
company uses an innovative blend of
polypropylene to create a high
impact absorption range of safety
barriers, and it is this method which
will be applied to its new Armco
barriers.
James Smith, MD A-Safe said: "Steel has long been associated with Armco barriers, however steel may be strong, but its rigidity is its downfall. If you were to drive into something which doesn't offer any give when you hit it, the force of the impact will cause greater damage to you, your vehicle and the object. The solution to this is to offer flexibility as well as strength and impact absorption in barriers, which ASafe's Armco provides."
