ASIAD-Compliant Tensabarrier® Posts

Security is a critical consideration in airport environments. The UK Department for Transport’s Aviation Security in Airport Development (ASIAD) guidance helps ensure that security considerations are incorporated into the design and development of airport infrastructure.

Tensabarrier® posts have been independently blast tested and assessed as compliant with ASIAD requirements, providing airports with a proven queue management solution designed with both passenger safety and security in mind.

Testing has demonstrated that Tensabarrier® posts meet the required criteria for non-hazardous response to blast, helping to minimise the risk of fragmentation and secondary injury from flying debris in the event of an explosion.

Combining proven safety performance with effective passenger flow management, Tensabarrier® is ideally suited to security-conscious airport environments.
