Screen test
August 1st 2011

Safety barrier company, A-Safe, recently undertook a day of filming at its Halifax factory, showcasing a demonstration depicting the strength of the polymer barrier against an equivalent steel barrier.All of the A-Safe product range is tested under rigorous conditions with calibrated results.

In the A-Safe factory there are two impact calibration rigs; one, a dynamic pendulum impact simulator and one a static constant force simulator. The other method is to erect barriers and, under controlled safety conditions, bash them with a forklift truck.

On the day in question, all three tests were carried out, as well as filming in general to show the endto- end manufacturing process.
