A MODERN APPROACH TO A SAFER WORK ZONE

Ape Barrier® delivers the crash protection you need without the logistics, labor, and maintenance headaches that come with traditional barriers.

The Old Way.

80-100 LF / TRUCK

Fewer barriers per load means more trucks, higher freight cost, and more traffic through the work zone

Weathered concrete road barrier with cracks, rust stains, graffiti, and damaged asphalt

Brittle. Cracks. Spalls.

Concrete barriers crack, chip, and deteriorate. Leaving costly repairs, rejected barriers, and short usable life.

THE PRODUCT

ENGINEERED FOR SAFETY.

Ape Barrier® leverages the high strength-to-weight ratio of fiber reinforced polymers to provide the protection crews depend on without the weight and bulk of concrete. The result is a barrier that’s easier to transport, faster to deploy, and simpler to manage throughout the project.
