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.
