Biffa buys buffers for bio plant.
27 January 2014
Biffa West Sussex commissioned Berry Systems to install safety barriers at its flagship Mechanical Biological Treatment facility near Horsham.

The approach road is lined with barriers mounted on planted rigid posts concreted into the ground. The weighbridge is separated from pedestrian areas by barriers mounted on rigid posts bolted to the surface with integral pedestrian handrails and protective mesh.
In areas where there is insufficient room for a surface-mounted barrier, Berry’s wall-mounted WH spring steel buffers and Berry Beams have been installed. These mounting brackets save space and ‘give’ a little on impact to spread the load, protect the wall from the full force of the collision and minimise damage to the wall, the barrier and the vehicle.
In total more than 800m of barriers were installed at the MBT facility.
