Industry-Standard Armco Corrugated Barriers

Armco barriers are the UK standard for vehicle impact control. Designed to deform dynamically upon collision, the corrugated 'W' profile absorbs and redistributes kinetic energy to safely stop or redirect vehicles while preventing structural damage to nearby buildings and equipment.

Choosing the Right Armco Post Profile

• RSJ Posts (Rigid Protection): Heavy-duty Rolled Steel Joist (RSJ) posts provide exceptional resistance against severe impact forces. Ideal for HGV loading bays, high-traffic commercial yards, and structural perimeter walls.
• Z-Posts (Yielding Protection): Engineered Z-profile posts flex on impact to absorb initial collision forces before transferring energy to the main barrier rail. Excellent for standard car parks, commercial premises, and lower-speed vehicle tracks.
