Practical Design for Traffic Management
The Appleton polyurethane bollard has been designed to perform in busy environments where clarity, safety and reliability are essential. Its balanced form makes it suitable for:
• Town centre pedestrianisation schemes
• Retail and commercial forecourts
• Residential developments
• Public car parks
• School and campus environments
As a standard street bollard profile, it integrates easily alongside complementary street furniture such as seating, litter bins and cycle parking, supporting cohesive public realm design.
Durable and Corrosion Resistant Construction
Duracastâ„¢ polyurethane is engineered to withstand demanding urban conditions. Unlike cast iron, polyurethane bollards will not rust, flake or degrade due to moisture exposure, making them particularly well suited to UK climates.
Key material benefits include:
• Resistance to corrosion and weathering
• Impact tolerance against minor vehicle contact
• Reduced maintenance over the product lifecycle
• Long-lasting paint finish
• Consistent performance in high-traffic locations
An anti-ram version is available for sites where enhanced vehicle resistance is required, offering additional protection in areas with higher security or safety demands.
Flexible Fixing and Customisation Options
The Appleton PU bollard is supplied root fixed as standard, ensuring stable and permanent installation within concrete foundations. Additional options allow the product to be tailored to individual site requirements:
• Root fixed (standard)
• Baseplate fixed for surface mounting
• Removable fixing for controlled vehicle access
• Anti-ram specification
• Decorative highlighting (gold as standard, alternative colours available on request)
• Reflective banding for improved night-time visibility
Each bollard is supplied painted in a single Broxap standard colour (black as standard), with alternative RAL finishes available to match local authority standards or project branding.
Suitable for a Wide Range of Public Environments
The Appleton polyurethane bollard is frequently specified for both standalone installations and larger infrastructure schemes. It is particularly effective for:
• Managing vehicle access to pedestrian areas
• Protecting shopfronts and glazing
• Delineating parking bays

• Supporting town centre regeneration works
Often specified alongside Broxap’s wider selection of decorative bollards and protective street furniture, the Appleton provides a practical and visually consistent solution across diverse project types.
