The Crash Block is a highly versatile, free-standing surface mount unit, crash-tested to PAS 68 and IWA 14 standards. It is proven to stop a 7.5-tonne truck travelling at 40mph (64km/h) on both the front face and in the gap between blocks.
As the demand for reliable hostile vehicle mitigation grows, the Crash Block offers instant protection without the need for ground fixings. Its unique design allows it to sit directly on the surface, making it completely free-standing and quick to deploy.
Independent testing at the Horiba MIRA UK Vehicle Impact Testing Centre included three high-speed impact tests:
-
Test 1: 30mph (48km/h) impact at 90° into the front face.
-
Test 2: 40mph (64km/h) impact at 90° into the front face.
-
Test 3: 30mph (48km/h) impact at 90° into a 1.2m gap between two blocks, with only 2.9m penetration recorded.
Crash Block can be installed as a permanent or temporary solution in just hours. Units can be clad to suit surrounding architecture or combined with planters and seating benches to blend seamlessly into public spaces — all without the need for excavation or disruption to existing groundworks.
