Traditional Styling with Modern Material Performance
The Berkshire design incorporates subtle ring detailing beneath a smooth domed head, creating a refined profile suited to conservation areas and civic settings. As part of Broxap’s range of heritage bollards and decorative bollards, it integrates easily into established streetscapes without appearing overly ornate.
Unlike traditional metal alternatives, a polyurethane bollard will not rust or suffer from surface flaking. This makes it particularly suitable for exposed sites, including town centres, transport hubs and coastal promenades.

• Dome-shaped top
• Decorative ring detailing
• Durable Duracast™ polyurethane construction
• Root fixed as standard

Polyurethane Bollard for Urban and Civic Projects
The Berkshire PU bollard is specified across a wide range of public realm schemes where durability and consistent appearance are essential.
Common applications include:
• Pedestrianised high streets
• Public parks and formal gardens
• Civic squares and memorial spaces
• Retail and mixed-use developments
• School and healthcare environments
The impact-resistant construction helps the bollard withstand minor vehicle contact, reducing repair frequency compared to traditional cast iron units.
Flexible Fixing and Security Options
To suit varying site and operational requirements, the Berkshire polyurethane bollard can be supplied with several installation configurations:
• Root fixed for permanent installation
• Baseplate fixed for surface mounting
• Removable option for controlled access areas
• Anti-ram version for enhanced vehicle deterrence
• Reflective banding to improve night-time visibility
These options allow contractors and specifiers to balance aesthetic consistency with functional access control.
Long-Term Value in Public Realm Settings
Manufactured using robust polyurethane technology, the Berkshire is engineered for longevity. The material resists corrosion from road salts, moisture and general urban pollution, making it suitable for demanding locations throughout the UK.
The design can be paired with complementary street furniture such as railings, benches and litter bins to create a cohesive streetscape. It is often specified alongside other street bollards within phased regeneration schemes to maintain continuity across different project stages.
