Micro iFlex Barrier
The Micro iFlex Barrier protects walls, structures and machinery from workplace equipment such as hand pallets.
Although these impacts are unlikely to be catastrophic, the barrier protects against the continual wear-and-tear of frequent low energy impacts that, over time, degrade safety.
Tested and independently verified by TÜV, all A-SAFE barriers come with the reassurance of being the strongest, most innovative products from the global industry leaders.
"The safety of our people is the main goal for the Nestlé Company worldwide. For the group, one accident is too many. A-SAFE brought us tailor-made solutions that can be adapted to each specific case in our factories. In addition to how well the barriers perform, the savings in barriers and warehouse protection maintenance costs has dropped dramatically. Even if each factory case is really different, A-SAFE has been able to adapt, and work closely with our people."

Pedestrian +3 iFlex Barrier
The Pedestrian +3 iFlex Barrier will segregate personnel from workplace vehicles, clearly create and define walkways and help organise a facility for maximum productivity.
Preventing pedestrians from moving in areas of vehicle activity is critical to traffic management in the industrial workplace. A-SAFE's Pedestrian Barrier range will help form pedestrian routes and remove the dangerous crossing points that can so often be the cause of accidents.
When used with robust products such as iFlex Traffic Barriers, iFlex Double Traffic+ or Bollards, A-SAFE's modular system will create the ultimate safe, streamlined and protected working environment.
"Health and safety is the number one priority at Toyota UK and the vehicle-pedestrian interaction is one of the biggest health and safety concerns and also one of the most difficult to control. However, the A-SAFE barrier system has supported TMUK in taking a big step towards controlling this issue and reducing our risk. Whilst we considered traditional steel barriers, A-SAFE was considered to be the best option. It is the most cost-effective − especially in the long-term − and is easy to maintain if damaged."

RackEnd iFlex Barrier
Made from a flexible, impact-absorbent polymer blend, RackEnd iFlex Barrier protects the ends of racking aisles where turning vehicles and equipment can often impact vulnerable rack legs.
The height of the RackEnd iFlex Barrier has been designed to match the centres of gravity of the vehicles from which it is likely to receive impacts. Due to the use of the circular end posts it provides enhanced protection at the barrier ends, which are the parts of the barrier most vulnerable to impact as loaded or unloaded manual or powered lift trucks are turned into or out of the aisles between racking bays.
Innovative spinning collars deflect impacts, dissipate the impact forces and prevent damaging energies from reaching the floor and fixing

RackGuard
Protecting your rack legs is a logistical priority and the Rackguard is the next generation of racking protection.
Scientifically developed by A-SAFE's in-house Research & Development department, the design improves on an already world-leading product. Quite simply, the RackGuard is on another level from anything else that protects rack legs.
The new benefits include:
Side impact absorption:
If struck from the side, the impact energy is absorbed and the guard then reforms to its original shape.
Front impact absorption:
When hit from the front the guard absorbs the impact and dissipates the energy around the rack leg rather than through it, reducing damage.
The Compression Hinge:
This unique feature ensures that the leg is in a constant state of compression and grips securely around the racking leg.
Centralising Rubber Lug:
A distinctive benefit, specially designed to ensure the RackGuard fits central to any sized rack leg.
Built-in Memory:
Made from our exclusive material, Memaplex, this strong and flexible product allows the RackGuard to return to its original shape after impact time and time again.
Various leg lengths and sizes:
Whatever your rack leg size, our RackGuard will fit.
Ten Frictional Grip Points.
For an improved overall grip to any rack leg.
Dual-Branding.
The RackGuard can be dual-branded with your logo.

Traffic iFlex Barrier
Able to flex, absorb and reform following impacts at low-levels from vehicles such as counterbalance forklift trucks, the Traffic iFlex Barrier is designed with the standard wheel arch impact height in mind. Highly-visible, resilient and low maintenance, the barrier will protect vehicles and machinery and segregate pedestrians from workplace traffic.
An in-built modularity assists easy install and quick repairs and multi-directional posts allow the system to fit more economically into any facility, removing the hard angles that can often be the cause of accidents.
New hygiene seals and an absence of ingress points are revolutionary for sensitive environments and the non-scratch, non-corrosive, non-repaint properties of the system create huge costs savings on maintenance, downtime and manpower.
The high-visibility barriers will organise and streamline a facility, optimise productivity and make prevention of accidents a priority.

Armco Barrier
The common myth about Armco is that it is a certain strength barrier which can't be bettered. In actual fact, 'Armco' was merely a brand name, and could be applied to even the weakest steel barrier - misleading some people who may have thought they'd purchased the industry leader.
A-SAFE's Armco Barrier is a heavy duty barrier that protects against impact from large workplace vehicles and forklift trucks. It's a product that comes in traditional grey, rather than A-SAFE's usual yellow and, unlike steel barriers, flexes upon impact so it does not tear up from the floor.
Over a five year period the carbon footprint of 100m of A-SAFE Armco Barrier is 4.5X less than the carbon footprint of an equal length steel Armco barrier.

Bollards
Bollards are implemented in many different workplaces and are used extensively in industrial, commercial, public and car park environments.
Bollards are normally used to protect structures, prevent unauthorised or unsafe access or for vehicle and pedestrian guidance. They can be installed in situations where they need to protect against vehicle impact, prevent impact damage or where they simply need to provide a physical presence for access or guidance control.
A-SAFE produce a number of strengths of flexible bollard, with varying appearances for differing benefits. We also manufacture a hooped bollard, which comes in a range of colours. These are highly-visible so vehicle drivers and pedestrians can easily see where they are permitted, or not permitted, to go.
A-SAFE Bollards provide high impact resistance in situations where vehicles are present.
Where used in pedestrian areas for guidance or access prevention they provide a smooth 'people friendly' surface as well as durability to knocks, scrapes and bumps. All A-SAFE bollard products are manufactured to have an inherent flexibility to cushion, absorb and dissipate impact forces.
A-SAFE Bollards are also designed to reduce or eliminate potential floor damage caused after impacts.

Dock Roller
The Dock Roller from A-SAFE is the best and most revolutionary loading dock protection on the market.
Developed to give you the ultimate in protection and cost-savings from damage by HGVs, it works differently than standard dock buffers, in that you don't get friction or wear on the product and your structure takes a lot less impact using the roller system.
The Dock Roller has a high impact polymer outer and a shock absorbing inner layer. When parked vehicles move, due to the change in loading weight, the rollers ‘move’ too. Therefore the product doesn't get damaged by friction like other dock bumpers and lessens the chance of repair costs and structural damage.

Car Park Barrier
A-SAFE's flexible Car Park Barriers are excellent options for new or refurbished car parks and offer greater benefits than traditional steel barriers.
A-SAFE barriers will not damage a car if they are bumped and will not fade if they are exposed to direct sunlight as they are UV-resistant and have an incredibly high ignition point.
Vitally, A-SAFE Car Park Barriers are modular which mean they can be efficiently used in conjunction with a number of other A-SAFE barriers such as Bollards and Pedestrian Barriers.
The standard colour for Car Park Barrier is grey, but we can accommodate all colours to help assist with the different aesthetics of contemporary car park design.
Available with anti-climb meshing and column-mounted versions, A-SAFE can provide a total solution for your modern car park safety.

Height Restrictor
Height Restrictors are part of the door protection product range and have two main functions: doorway opening edge protection and height restriction for prevention of high-level impact damage.
Where there is a risk of high level impact with overhead pipe bridges, cable trays, air or gas supply lines, ventilation ducts from high vehicles, high vehicle loads or fork lift truck masts the Height Restrictors will prevent disruptive and expensive impact damage, as well as warning a vehicle driver that his vehicle or load is too high.
At A-SAFE we are able to manufacture these to a range of heights and they are highly visible to vehicle drivers. The curved edges help to deflect impact away from the building structure. Where doorways are fitted with roller shutter doors the height restrictors ensure that the roller shutter door channels at the doorway sides and the closed door itself at the top of the doorway are protected against costly damage that can be caused by vehicle or load impacts.

Kerb Barrier
Kerb Barrier is a floor mounted product that has a low centre of gravity, enabling it to stop workplace vehicles hitting goods or machinery.
The vehicle kerb defines the edges of traffic routes to prevent vehicles straying and withstands the shallow angular impacts that some vehicles can cause.
Giving floor level protection, the Kerb Barriers reduce the maintenance and repair costs associated with impact damage that can be caused to walls, structures and equipment.

Slide Gate
Slide Gates are mainly used with Pedestrian Barriers but are compatible with most barrier systems by using an interface post. They can also be used as a stand-alone gate.
The gates are ideal for light vehicle access and the standard sizes are 1,000mm, 1,500mm and 2,000mm although any size is available up to 2,000mm. They can be installed in pairs to give openings to a maximum of 4,000mm. Monkey tail bolts can be used to secure gates in an open or closed position. Gate locks are also available.
Choosing a Slide Gate eliminates the problem of a larger gate swinging into an area of vehicle activity. The gates can also be fitted seamlessly into a run ofA-SAFE Pedestrian Barriers.

Slider Base Plates
Slider base plates allow runs of iFlex barrier to be removed for access purposes.
By only fixing the cast steel base plates to the floor, rather than the barriers, the barriers themselves are able to slide out of position.
This method means areas where access is required, but protection for expensive equipment or vital structures is essential, can still be easily entered whilst retaining their protected properties.
Slider base plates come in two sizes, to fit A-SAFE Pedestrian and Traffic barriers.

About us
When A-SAFE invented the world’s first flexible, polymer-based barrier in 2001 it transformed barrier protection in the industrial workplace.
The core properties of A-SAFE barriers in 2001 remain in place today − on impact from a workplace vehicle, the barriers flex, absorb impact forces, then reform to their original state. This principle alone saves companies large amounts on replacement barriers, manpower and downtime, but add the ultra-low maintenance properties of the polymer (MemaplexTM) − no repainting, non-scratch, non-corrosive, no substrate repairs − the return on investment is vast, fast and permanent.
When A-SAFE barriers were installed in the baggage handling area in Gatwick Airport, barrier maintenance and replacement costs were cut from £100,000 per year, to just £3,000 over a five-year period.
iFlex
In 2016, A-SAFE launched the iFlex barrier range, making posts 400% stronger and rails 60% stronger and longer, creating a safer, more economical system. A built-in modularity gives customers ultimate flexibility, allowing barriers to move or adapt as a facility changes. Hygiene seals and an absence of ingress points are revolutionary for sensitive manufacturing industries such as food and drink or pharmaceutical. A multi-directional capability allows the barriers to fit better and more economically in to any facility, removing the hard angles that can often be the cause of accidents.
These new innovations strengthen A-SAFE’s commitment to permanently protect people, property, profits and performance.
In addition to improved safety and return on investment, A-SAFE barriers carry other benefits.
A seamless, streamlined exterior combines with a uniform cylindrical design to create an organised aesthetic appeal for modern workplaces. The barriers offer a carbon footprint reduction of 450% over steel equivalents, taking into account the manufacturing processes, the reduced maintenance demands and the vastly decreased need for replacement barriers.
Industries
A-SAFE products are for use in most industrial environments, including: warehousing, factories, facilities management, airports, car parks, food and drink manufacturing, pharmaceutical, automotive manufacturing, cold storage, distribution centres, retail outlets, rail, transport depots and more.
Costs of an Accident
The human costs of an accident are long lasting and can impact productivity, morale, company reputation and more, but the following financial costs to a company are also considerable: Health and rehabilitation, compensation, admin, legal fees, rising insurance premiums, absenteeism, damaged property, accident investigation and the hiring and training of new employees. A-SAFE barriers will protect against these costs and more.
Fully Tested & Compliant
All A-SAFE barriers are fully tested in-house using in-depth FEA analysis before being independently tested by authoritative bodies such as TÜV and MIRA so that A-SAFE barriers meet − and surpass − all relevant regulations.
A-SAFE uses a scientific understanding of the impact forces created by workplace vehicles at different speeds, loads and angles in order to never install barriers that are unfit for purpose.

Costs of an Accident
The human costs of an accident are long lasting and can impact productivity, morale, company reputation and more, but the following financial costs to a company are also considerable: Health and rehabilitation, compensation, admin, legal fees, rising insurance premiums, absenteeism, damaged property, accident investigation and the hiring and training of new employees. A-SAFE barriers will protect against these costs and more.
Fully Tested & Compliant
All A-SAFE barriers are fully tested in-house using in-depth FEA analysis before being independently tested by authoritative bodies such as TÜV and MIRA so that A-SAFE barriers meet − and surpass − all relevant regulations.
A-SAFE uses a scientific understanding of the impact forces created by workplace vehicles at different speeds, loads and angles in order to never install barriers that are unfit for purpose.
