We’re proud to have used the event to officially launch two exciting additions to our product portfolio, reinforcing our commitment to delivering industry-leading solutions for the highways and transport sectors.

Introducing the Armadillo Crash Cushion

One highlight of the day has been the launch of the new Armadillo Crash Cushion. Designed to provide exceptional impact protection while offering fast installation and low maintenance requirements, the Armadillo represents the next generation of temporary crash cushion technology.

Developed with safety, durability and operational efficiency in mind, the Armadillo provides contractors and highway authorities with a robust solution for protecting road users and workforces across a wide range of traffic management applications.
