Workplace Safety Through Segregation
Creating a safe workplace starts with effective segregation between pedestrians and moving vehicles. In busy industrial environments such as warehouses, loading bays, and manufacturing plants, workers and vehicles often operate side by side. Without proper separation, the risk of accidents and injuries increases significantly, making clear pathways and physical barriers essential.
At Wallace Protection Systems, we understand the importance of compliant and well-designed safety measures. Our polymer barrier systems ensure pedestrians and vehicles can move safely within shared spaces, supporting Regulation 17 of the Workplace Health and Safety Welfare Regulations. By implementing structured segregation, businesses protect their people, assets, and productivity.
Protection for Pedestrians and Workers
Protecting pedestrians and workers is at the heart of every safe and efficient workplace. In environments where vehicles such as forklifts and pallet trucks operate, the potential for collisions or near-misses is high. Well-designed segregation systems help to reduce these risks, providing a clear and visible boundary between pedestrian walkways and vehicle routes.
Wallace Protection Systems’ polymer barrier solutions create a secure environment that prioritises the safety of your workforce. The flexibility and strength of our barriers absorb impact energy, reducing the risk of injury and protecting those on foot. This proactive approach helps maintain compliance and promotes a culture of workplace safety.
Key Features of Our Polymer Barrier Systems
Our polymer barrier systems are designed with innovation, durability, and safety in mind. Manufactured from high-performance technopolymers, they offer exceptional flexibility and impact resistance, effectively absorbing and dispersing collision energy. This ensures minimal damage to vehicles, structures, and floors, while maintaining the integrity of the barrier itself. Their bright, high-visibility colour enhances safety awareness, ensuring pedestrians and drivers can clearly identify restricted areas and walkways.
Easy to install and maintain, Wallace Protection Systems’ polymer barriers provide a long-lasting, cost-effective safety solution for any industrial environment. From warehouses to distribution centres, they deliver superior protection and help businesses meet workplace safety regulations without compromising on efficiency or visual appeal.

Frequently Asked Questions
Polymer barrier systems are designed to separate pedestrians from moving vehicles in industrial environments such as warehouses, loading bays, and factories. They help prevent collisions, reduce workplace accidents, and protect people, vehicles, and structures from damage. Made from advanced technopolymers, these barriers absorb impact energy, maintaining their shape and strength even after heavy contact. Wallace Protection Systems provides durable, flexible solutions that comply with UK health and safety regulations, ensuring a safer and more organised workspace for both workers and equipment operators.
Polymer barriers improve safety by providing a clear physical and visual separation between pedestrians and vehicles, reducing the likelihood of accidents. Their bright colours increase visibility, while their shock-absorbing design minimises injury risk and prevents damage to vehicles or racking systems. Unlike steel barriers, they flex under impact and return to their original form, lowering maintenance costs. By installing WPS Polymer Barrier Systems, businesses ensure compliance with Regulation 17 of the Workplace Health, Safety and Welfare Regulations and create safer, more efficient working environments.
Yes, WPS Polymer Barrier Systems are designed for straightforward installation and low maintenance. The modular design allows them to be fitted quickly with minimal disruption to daily operations. Once installed, their durable technopolymer construction ensures long-lasting performance, even in high-traffic areas. Unlike metal barriers, polymer systems do not rust, bend, or require repainting. This makes them a cost-effective solution for busy industrial sites, providing ongoing safety benefits without frequent repair or replacement needs. Routine visual inspections are typically all that’s required to maintain them.
