Designed for UK infrastructure, this heavy-duty barrier base provides essential ground stability for traffic barriers whether used in lane segregation, utility work or pedestrian control. The base is designed to be used alongside the barrier post and barrier plank to form a complete heavy-duty barrier system.
Manufactured from 100% recycled materials, the base is both environmentally responsible and structurally robust. It is offered in two formats—standard square or anti-trip triangle—to meet project-specific safety needs. Bases are stackable to increase ballast strength, enabling secure deployment in windy conditions or high-traffic areas.
- Modular compatibility - Connects with HERMEQ planks and posts for a full barrier setup.
- Dual design options - Anti-trip or square models for tailored site requirements.
- Impact-resistant material - Made to withstand knocks, scrapes, and rough handling.
- Easy to manoeuvre - Lightweight enough for rapid installation, solid enough for stability.
- Certified compliance - Tested to BSEN8442 and BSEN12899-1 standards.
This base is a foundational element in any road barrier or road construction barrier setup, offering flexibility, safety, and quick deployment. Whether handling urban diversions or footpath closures, the units can be placed and stacked to create strong, low-profile support in seconds.
At just 4kg, it provides the ideal balance of portability and strength, with dimensions of 130mm height, 450mm width and 450mm depth. This makes it suitable for compact spaces while retaining the ballast needed to resist tipping or displacement.

Design & Materials
Constructed from recycled polymer, each base offers solid ballast without the weight of concrete. This ensures a lower environmental impact while maintaining high mechanical performance. The choice between square or anti-trip shapes gives contractors flexibility depending on site constraints or pedestrian interaction levels.
Ease of Handling
Each unit weighs only 4kg and is designed for quick stacking. This reduces labour fatigue while enabling heavier setups where needed. Stacked bases interlock securely, offering greater resistance to impact or wind without complex anchoring.
Built to Industry Standards
Conforming to BSEN8442 and BSEN12899-1, these bases help ensure your entire traffic management barriers system remains compliant with UK safety regulations.
