A Practical PU Bollard for Everyday Street Use
The Barton polyurethane bollard has been developed for schemes where durability and clarity of form are key considerations. Its simple domed profile ensures visual consistency across streetscapes without drawing unnecessary attention.
Typical locations include:
• Town centre pedestrian zones
• Car parks and access roads
• Retail parks and commercial estates
• School and university campuses
• Residential developments
As part of a coordinated traffic management strategy, these PU bollards can be specified alongside signage, guardrails and other access control measures to define safe vehicle and pedestrian routes.
Material Advantages of Polyurethane Bollards
Duracastâ„¢ polyurethane provides a number of performance benefits when compared to cast iron or untreated steel alternatives:
• Will not rust or corrode
• Resistant to cracking and surface damage
• Lower maintenance requirements over time
• Consistent factory-applied finish
• Reduced risk of sharp fracture on impact
In environments where minor vehicle contact is likely, rebound bollards manufactured from polyurethane offer improved resilience and reduced whole-life costs.
For projects requiring a metal specification, a steel version of the Barton bollard is also available.
Installation and Security Options
The Barton polyurethane bollard is supplied root fixed as standard, providing secure anchorage for permanent installations. Additional configurations are available to meet site-specific requirements:
• Root fixed
• Baseplate fixed
• Removable fixing for controlled access areas
• Anti-ram version for enhanced vehicle resistance
• Reflective banding for increased night-time visibility
This flexibility enables contractors and specifiers to adapt the bollard to operational needs without compromising visual consistency.
Designed for UK Streetscapes
Supplied in a single Broxap standard colour (black as standard), the Barton PU bollard can also be finished in alternative RAL colours on request to align with local authority palettes or corporate branding.
As experienced suppliers of bollards UK-wide, Broxap supports projects ranging from small-scale access control measures to larger regeneration schemes. The Barton design can be paired with complementary street furniture such as benches, litter bins and cycle stands to create a coherent and functional public realm.
