Traffic cones are frequently used to secure accident or construction sites. Due to their high-visibility colours and reflective properties, traffic cones are immediately visible and recognisable from a great distance. Also, thanks to their shape and sturdy construction, cones are ideal for cordoning off areas quickly and efficiently.
For these reasons, traffic cones are used by the fire brigade and police, among others, to secure accident sites. In road construction, traffic cones are also used as temporary marking and guidance systems – for securing active worksites. For this purpose, many of the traffic cones we stock can also be connected to each other using matching chain attachments.
From our online store, you can buy traffic cones that are permissible for use in non-public areas.
Please note: The traffic cones available from us are only suitable for the temporary protection of work and accident sites. For long-term closure of these areas, permanent installations such as barrier posts or impact protectors are available.
Our PVC traffic cones designed for non-public areas meet the appropriate requirements to safely and unambiguously mark public places and streets. For publicly used traffic cones, they must adhere to the provisions of British Standard BS EN 13422.2004 which sets out standardised requirements such as size and shape, colour, and base design. Standard BS 873 Part 8 on the use of road traffic signs should also be considered if traffic cones are to be used on public roads.
Traffic cones that are used in non-public areas are not required to meet these standards. Among other common designs, folding traffic cones or reflective traffic cones in a bold colour design may be used here. For traffic safety – e.g. on your company premises – we offer the following:
Our traffic cones for non-public use are made of PVC and are shatterproof, cold, and heat resistant. They can be easily manoeuvred using the recessed handle and positioned where needed.
