Our Testing

Robust Testing for Safety & Longevity

Polybar is committed to providing impact protection systems that perform to the highest standards. Our safety products are performance-based, reliable and safe. We subject our products to rigorous third party dynamic and static load testing, ensuring that we can provide you with reliable solutions that protect your people, business and equipment.

Polybar Group Assured Testing

Polybar impact protection systems are manufactured using a high-performance synthetic polymer. Protection systems that feature P-FLEX Technology benefit from increased elasticity that increases the protection systems’ ability to safety absorb forces upon impact.

TUV Nord have certified dynamic pendulum testing while the university of Engineering and Architecture of Zaragoza, Spain have carried out onerous static load testing. They have also carried out a study using finite element analysis to further understand mechanical performance.

P-FLEX Technology Offers Increased Safety Standards

All sections with P-FLEX Technology are hollow whereas the standard range of protection products are solid. Besides impact and mechanical performance testing and analysis, the high-performance synthetic polymer that is used in our products is robustly tested for:

Food Contact

Tested to BS EN 1186-2:2002 to meet food safety standards. This ensures that our impact protection systems are not only effective in preventing injuries, but also safe for use in any environment.

BS EN 1186-3:2002

Tested to BS EN 1186-3:2002 for materials and articles in contact with foodstuff, which ensures that our products are safe and of the highest quality.
