What Ballast to choose?

Equipped with a retroflective sleeve, our cones serve as essential markers for road safety, ensuring high visibility day or night. These markers effectively guide and alert individuals in range of settings, acting a invaluable tool for traffic management.

Concrete Ballast

Concrete ballast provides the maximum density among available options. Its substantial weight and uncomplicated construction make it a robust and straightforward choice for stabilizing fences in windy conditions. Despite its weight reaching up to 50kg, two people can still easily move the ballast.

Our concrete blocks are available either as plain blocks or with a plastic-coated option. The plastic coating serves as a high-visibility protective shell, guaranteeing the block’s integrity by preventing breakage from multiple drops or exposure to cold temperatures.

For heavier weighted kentledge on your temporary fencing or hoarding Concrete Barriers can be used.
