How Impact Recovery System works

 

4 LEVELS OF EXTREME PROTECTION

 

It's not only the footings you can protect, our Impact Recovery System protects your bollard using another 3 levels of protection to make the bollard impact resistant, safer and reusable


TO PROTECT EXPENSIVE FOOTINGS - The first level of protection are the ZERO WASTE Foundations that protect the surrounding concrete and paving from damage impact after impact.  		  

  1. WE PROTECT PEOPLE & ASSETS 
    Unlike spring loaded bollards that over-flex, a heavy-duty resistance core prevents deflection of the bollard beyond 20 degrees when impacted by a passenger vehicle at low speed such as a carpark. Upon severe impact the core will bend but the bollard will remain secure and the core is easily replaced. (see below)

  2. WE PROTECT THE BOLLARD AND VEHICLES  
    Unlike springs that quickly rust and wear out, creating dangerous litigation risks, we use ZERO WASTE mpact Recovery Rings made from advanced polymers creating a permanent shock absorbing cushion that absorb the impact force of a vehicle and self-recovers, with no reduction in capacity following hundreds of impacts, greatly improving safety and resilience

  3. WE ENSURE YOUR BOLLARD WILL WITHSTAND IMPACT 
    We use only bollard casings that are strong anough to withstand impact without extreme denting, scratching. Unlike cheaply made (often imported) bollards that dent upon     impact from a vehicle, our heavy-duty bollards provide an impact resistant surface, but our Advanced Polymer bollards are the true heroes, further improving safety, reducing the risk of damage to vehicles, and making light work of replacing damaged bollards.

 

IN - GROUND BOLLARDS

Bollards are secured on ZERO WASTE Foundations using the In-ground Impact Recovery System

Bollards remain rigid and cannot be deflected by hand. When impacted by a vehicle the Impact Recovery Rings absorb the impact force (allowing bollard to deflect up to 20 degrees when the resistance core will prevent any further defelction) and slowly safely self-recover impact after impact, year after year.

A more flexible version of rings (Super-flex) is available for bike paths that enables bollards to deflect upon low impact such as trolleys or push bikes (use with Advanced Polymer Bollards)

 

 

SIMPLE TO REPLACE
_____________________

If bollard is badly impacted the resistance core may need replacing

  1. Undo security stud and slip off bollard 
  1. Use industrial removal tool (or foot tool for modified units) to remove the resistance core from ground socket. 
  1. Replace Resistance core. Rings secured to core using screwdriver to tighten clamps. The Bollard casing, ZERO WASTE Foundations, Impact Recovery Rings and Self-locking Taper are all re-usable impact after impact

 

SURFACE MOUNT BOLLARDS


Surface Mount Bollards are secured on a Heavy-Duty Reusable Base plate using the  Impact Recovery System

Bollards remain rigid and cannot be deflected by hand. When impacted by a vehicle the Impact Recovery Rings absorb the impact force (allowing bollard to deflect up to 20 degrees when the resistance core will prevent any further deflection) and slowly safely self-recover impact after impact, year after year.

 

 

SIMPLE TO REPLACE
_____________________

If bollard is severely impacted the resistance core may need replacing

  1. Undo securing stud and slip off bollard 
  2. Use Allen key to remove the resistance core from base plate.
  3. Replace the resistance core. Impact Recovery Rings, Base Plate and surrounding foundations re-usable impact after impact
