Its vibrant high-visibility tape and durable outer shell make it ideal for construction sites, warehouses, and public venues. Skipper tape barriers are compatible with cones and posts, ensuring a modular and fast-deploy system for any safety or traffic control task.
- Industry-leading tape length - Covers larger areas with fewer units required.
- Self-tensioning mechanism - Maintains tautness even during extended use.
- Versatile connectivity - Tape end clips back on itself or onto posts.
- Shock-resistant body - Designed to withstand bumps and regular handling.
- Compatible with multiple bases - Use with cones, Skipper Q posts or barrier systems.
Designed for reliability and ease of use, the Skipper retractable tape barrier provides professionals with a lightweight yet high-performing option to mark out restricted areas. With an impressive 9m tape length, it efficiently sections off large zones using fewer units than conventional belt barriers.
It supports fast setup for crowd control, queue management, or hazard isolation in industrial, logistics and event management settings. The belt mechanism is equipped with a ratchet-style self-tensioner, which helps maintain a consistent line and avoids sagging, even when deployed at full extension.
The barrier’s high-contrast orange housing and durable webbing offer maximum visibility in both daylight and artificial light. Its ergonomic casing with soft-grip contours supports quick deployments while ensuring secure handling across multiple environments.
This tape barrier is also highly compatible with other HERMEQ solutions including barrier posts and ropes, allowing for custom safety configurations. It clips easily to cones or wall mounts, offering maximum flexibility for use across construction zones, loading bays, or restricted access points.
