Industrial Safety Barriers for Warehouses & Impact Protection
Protecting People, Property, and Processes
Fast Installation & Reconfiguration
Modular barrier components are delivered ready for installation with mounting hardware included, enabling fast onsite installation. The modular design also allows barriers to be reconfigured as layouts evolve, helping facilities adapt to operational changes without full system replacement.
TÜV Certified & PAS 13 Compliant
Independently tested to TÜV standards and compliant with PAS 13 guidelines, supporting specification requirements and safety approvals in industrial environments.
Engineered to Absorb Impact
Polymer barrier systems absorb impact energy by flexing under collision and returning to shape, helping reduce force transfer to slabs and anchors and avoid repeated repair costs compared with rigid steel alternatives.

• Protection aligned to different impact requirements
Frequently Asked Questions
Steel barriers are rigid and tend to transfer collision forces directly into anchors and concrete, which can lead to permanent deformation and floor damage. Polymer barriers are designed to flex and absorb impact energy, reducing force transfer to the floor and returning to shape after impact, which helps lower long-term maintenance and downtime.
Flexible barriers are engineered for different risk levels depending on whether the goal is impact protection or visual guidance. Performance depends on the barrier type, system height, post spacing, and rail configuration. Our team matches the appropriate solution to your vehicle fleet, traffic profile, and risk zones.
Flexible polymer barriers deform on impact, absorbing energy rather than transferring it directly into the floor or anchors. This means:
- Less damage to floors and fixings
- Minimal need for replacement after impact
- Reduced operational downtime
- Lower ongoing maintenance cost
Yes. The barriers are tested in accordance with recognised impact performance guidelines such as PAS 13, ensuring they meet industry expectations for safety and reliability.
Yes. Certain ranges of flexible barriers are specifically engineered for areas exposed to forklift and other industrial vehicle traffic, including doorways, loading docks, machinery zones and pedestrian interfaces. These systems are tested in accordance with PAS 13 impact performance guidelines, ensuring reliable protection in high traffic industrial environments.
Yes. Flexible barrier systems are commonly used to create physical separation between forklifts and pedestrians, define controlled walkways, and protect high traffic asset zones within warehouse and industrial facilities.
Yes. Flexible polymer barriers are highly resistant to weather, UV exposure, temperature changes and corrosion, making them suitable for both indoor and outdoor environments.
Yes. Flexible barriers are suitable for cold-room and subzero environments. Polyethylene-based materials used in these systems are designed for reliable performance at low temperatures, with a temperature range of -40°C to +50°C.
Bollards are typically used for point protection such as columns, rack ends, and doorways. Guardrails and traffic barriers are used for vehicle segregation and protecting longer asset runs. Multi-rail systems are recommended for high traffic forklift and pedestrian interaction zones. We design layouts based on risk zones rather than product type alone.
Flexible barriers are available in:
- Standard sizes for common applications
- Customised lengths to suit specific layouts
- Individually cut sections where a more precise fit is required
This helps adapt the system to different site requirements and protection zones.
Flexible barriers are designed for quick, straightforward installation using included fixings. They are typically mounted to concrete surfaces using concrete screws, helping simplify installation and minimise operational disruption.
