Crash friendly lighting columns

Crash friendly lighting columns with long lifespan is a popular and safe choice.

The posts have been developed since 1999 to meet today’s demands for flexible poles and long life. We have carried out more than 50 crash tests in full scale and made complete calculations according to EN 40 for all types of poles – lighting columns, traffic light poles and sign posts.

The Columns are tapered and built of two layers, the inner layer of reinforced glass fibre polyester and the outer layer of UV-resistant coloured polyolefin. The Columns are produced with two straps between the layers. The estimated lifetime for the Columns is over 80 years.

The strengths of the columns are calculated according to EN 40. Crash tested and approved as a product family according to EN 12767:2000. Classification: 70,LE,3, 100,NE,2, without compartment damage.
