Bollards, traffic cones & guide cylinders at DENIOS
Bollards and traffic cones are indispensable aids to barrier and safety in road traffic and on company premises. Thanks to their robust materials and easy handling, they make a significant contribution to accident prevention and safety. DENIOS offers a wide range of high-quality products that fulfil the various requirements and areas of application.
What are traffic cones?
Traffic cones, also known as bollards, marking cones, warning cones or guide cylinders, are barriers that are usually used in road traffic for short-term warning, protection and visual guidance of road users.
Traffic cones are made from a resistant and durable plastic. This ensures a long service life and good resistance to weather conditions. They have a round or square base plate, which gives the cone stability and ensures that it stands securely.
The eye-catching signal colour of the traffic cones ensures a high level of visibility and attention. They are often fitted with retroreflective material to improve their visibility at night. Due to their material, traffic cones are easy to transport and stack. They are also relatively safe in the event of a collision, as they can usually be driven over without danger.
Traffic cones for greater road safety
In road traffic, traffic cones are mainly used to cordon off roadworks and accident sites. They are used to alert road users to potential hazards and direct the flow of traffic. At construction sites, traffic cones mark the work area, protect workers and warn motorists in good time, which reduces accidents and ensures a smoother flow of traffic. At accident sites, they mark the danger zone and create a safe working environment for emergency services to prevent further accidents. Traffic cones are also used at events and functions as well as for road closures and diversions to regulate traffic routes, direct visitor flows and mark alternative routes, thereby increasing safety and traffic flow.
Secure the construction site properly with guide cylinders
Guide cylinders and pylons are often used when roads or areas need to be cordoned off.
Traffic cones have a conical shape and can therefore be stacked inside each other to save space.
Traffic guidance cylinders are also easy to transport and can be anchored to the ground with dowels for greater stability.
Both guide cylinders and traffic cones can be driven over in an emergency without being damaged or posing a danger to road users. Due to their low resistance, the warning cones may only be used temporarily.
Marking cones on the company premises
The same regulations do not apply on company premises as on the road. For reasons of operational safety, however, you should consider the intended use when selecting the warning cones. The number of rings or stripes is irrelevant for internal use. Always pay attention to the size of the cones. Traffic cones that are too small are quickly overlooked and driven over.
Alternatively, we offer Comeback traffic cones that can be driven over for use in warehouses and factory buildings. These give way when approached and then straighten up again.
