Solutions
A Pitagone is a certified anti-truck-ram barriers, designed and produced in Belgium. As a HVM device they are lightweight and mobile allowing them to be temporarily removed to allow access for emergency or priority vehicles. The Pitagone F11 and F18 adapt to all surfaces and terrains (including sidewalks, gradients and bumpy surfaces) and capable of stopping a truck or vehicle up to 7.5 tonne at average speed.
As a HVM measure the implementation of a Pitagone successfully stops the passage of vehicles even in a hostile situation making it a unique, cost effective strategy against ramming attacks.
Water Filled Barriers are temporary plastic bollards used to mitigate the threat of a hostile vehicle approaching. Water filled barriers are a great alternative to traditional barricades because they provide energy absorption for oncoming traffic in a way that provides increased safety for those attending events.
A water-filled barrier is a large plastic barrier which is hollow inside. Once positioned, the barrier is filled with water and remains firmly in position. At the end of the event, the water is drained from the barriers and they are able to be easily removed from the location.
The use of CATO production vehicles or trucks can also be deployed as a highly successful HVM solution. When parked in the middle of the road, they prevent a hostile vehicle from gaining access.
Our highly experienced HVM vehicle drivers remain with their vehicle at all times to ensure access for emergency services. We have a variety of vehicle types and sizes available for hire as HVM.
