EN 13374 class A&B Edge Protection Barrier Anti-Slip Features
Designed specifically to safeguard workers and bystanders around trenches, pits, and excavations, this edge protection barrier holds the CE mark—a testament to its compliance with European Union safety standards, including EN 13374 (temporary edge protection systems) and EN 12699 (temporary works for excavations). Its certification ensures it meets rigorous requirements for strength, durability, and fall prevention, making it a trusted solution for high-risk excavation sites.
- Structural Strength: Engineered to withstand lateral loads defined by EN 13374, with options for both Class A (10 kN resistance) for heavy-traffic excavation zones and Class B (3 kN resistance) for lighter-use areas. This ensures the barrier resists impacts from machinery, tools, or workers leaning against it, preventing collapse into the excavation.
- Height and Gap Control: Stands at a minimum height of 1100mm (43 inches) with mid-rails and toeboards (≥150mm tall) to block falls and contain debris—critical for compliance with EN 13374’s requirements for preventing objects or limbs from slipping through.
- Stable Anchoring: Features site-adaptable anchoring systems, including ground spikes (for soil), weighted concrete plates (for hard surfaces), or adjustable braces (for sloped terrain). These ensure the barrier remains secure in loose or uneven excavation edges, a key CE requirement for temporary works.
- Corrosion Resistance: Hot-dip galvanized or powder-coated finishes protect against moisture, mud, and groundwater—common in excavations—ensuring longevity and maintaining structural integrity over the project’s duration.
- Modular Flexibility: Panels (4–6m lengths) connect via quick-release hinges or locking pins, allowing customization to irregular excavation shapes (rectangular trenches, circular pits, or sloped edges). This adaptability ensures full perimeter coverage without gaps.
- High Visibility: CE-compliant safety colors (orange, yellow) with optional reflective strips enhance visibility in low-light conditions (dawn, dusk, or overcast weather), alerting workers to edge hazards in busy excavation sites.
- CE Mark Assurance: Validates conformity with EU health, safety, and environmental requirements, reducing liability risks and ensuring acceptance across European construction sites.
- Fall Prevention: Prevents fatal or injurious falls into excavations, aligning with EN 12699’s guidelines for temporary edge protection in earthworks.
- Debris Containment: Toeboards and tight mesh spacing (≤50x100mm) stop tools, soil, or equipment from falling into trenches, protecting workers below.
Ideal for utility digs, foundation excavations, and infrastructure projects, this CE-certified barrier combines rigorous compliance with practical design—ensuring excavation sites meet EU standards while keeping workers safe.
