March was our best month to date, partly because of a 400% increase in Sales of our Olympic Barrier, our top of the range traffic barrier!We’re hoping to progress even more throughout the year and keep smashing our sales figures.

Olympic Barrier

The Olympic Barrier offers the complete versatile system for utility and construction applications with hinged side wings designed to rotate and self lock at every 90°. This unique feature allows contractors to create configurations to protect temporary pathway excavations and road works of all kinds.

the Boss Barrier

Crowd Control.
the Boss Barrier

The new Boss Barrier used for Crowd Control Barriers and Event Management is now being ordered embossed and coloured, as well as in standard grey. Identification of product is a key reason to order the Boss Barrier compared to the standard metal crowd control barriers which are expensive to emboss and to powder coat. With the barrier taking off in the UK and enquiries from as far afield as Malta and Singapore, it looks like we’ll need the barriers to keep our crowds of customers back ! All our products are available with product identification methods… even the humble litter bin.
