Crash Cushion Leonidas 50 Parallel

Road Safety / Roadside Safety

The dangers of collisions at a speed of 50 km/h or even slower are often underestimated. Research shows that low-speed collisions against fixed obstacles can lead to serious injury and even death to drivers and/or passengers. 60% of road deaths occur on roads within municipalities. Secure light poles, gantry poles, trees, lane separations or other obstacles along roads with Leonidas crash cushions that have been specially developed for these low speeds. Thanks to their small size, they are effortlessly adopted by the environment and road safety is increased.

Modularly built

Thanks to an efficient patented energy absorption system consisting of special metal honeycomb panels, we deliver the best performing crash cushions. In the event of a collision, these honeycomb absorbing modules ensure an almost even absorption of the kinetic energy during the entire deformation of the crash cushion. This minimizes the risk of injury or worse. Leonidas crash cushions are delivered fully assembled, making installation quick and easy. Thanks to the modular construction, damage can be repaired quickly and easily after a collision, often on site. Parts of this crash cushion device are up to 80% reusable and 100% recyclable. In this way, huge savings can be made on the costs of damage repair

Tested according to EN1317-3

The Leonidas 50 Parallel Crash Cushions have been fully and successfully tested according to EN1317-3 and are provided with CE Marking, which means that this crash cushions complies with the Construction Products Regulation EU/305/2011.

Easy management and maintenance

With NFC technology, we can easily map our installed traffic safety systems. An NFC Tag is mounted on every Crash Cushion. As soon as you hold a smartphone in front of the NFC Tag, the App will open automatically. Clear instructions are given step by step on how to install the crash cushion. At each step a photo and possibly a comment can be added. When all steps have been completed, the data, including the GPS position, will be centrally stored on our portal. All data about the placement, model, type and year of construction are then available via the Portal. After a collision, this data can be passed on to us, so that the damage can be repaired quickly and the road is safe again. An extensive manual is also available in the NFC Tag. The damage can be easily repaired via a step-by-step plan, with photos of the various parts.
