Berry Systems Ltd – Airport Safety Barrier Systems. Berry Systems designs, manufactures and installs rigid and flexible airport safety barrier systems to provide traffic and pedestrian protection in commercial and industrial locations. All products are stringently tested to relevant standards and meet or exceed current regulations as well as recommendations from the Institution of Structural Engineers and the Institute of Civil Engineers.
Berry Systems’ industrial and car park safety barriers provide protection for vehicles ranging from 1.5 to 40 tonnes. The range also includes systems designed to protect columns, conveyor belts, racking and other items of plant and machinery. Bespoke systems can be designed to overcome specific problems. Where there is insufficient space for a floor mounted safety barrier system, the range of rubber safety barriers can still provide protection for almost any building structure.
A semi-flexible mounting system, such as the Berry Flexi-Post can absorb more energy from an impact by deflecting up to 120mm. This deflection protects the safety barrier, the impacting object and the floor anchorage. This is sufficient, for example, to absorb over half of the force involved when a 1.5 tonne vehicle hits a safety barrier at 10mph (4.5metres/sec).
Where even larger impacts are possible then the Berry Spring Steel Buffa system should be used. The mounting posts, as the name suggests, are made from a grade of spring steel that has enormous flexible qualities. A Spring Steel Buffa system can typically deflect between 300mm and 400mm and in the process absorb approximately 75% of the force involved in the example of the 1.5 tonne vehicle at 10mph.
Pedestrian protection is provided by the use of hand rails and mesh panels, which can be used in conjunction with traditional safety barrier rails or beam and rail systems.
