Heald Granted US Patent for Hostile Vehicle Mitigation Bollard

Heald Granted US Patent for Hostile Vehicle Mitigation Bollard

Heald Ltd has been granted a US Patent for its rising bollard, known as the Evo. The US patent for the Evo is the latest patent granted for Heald, which was named in the 2018 Sunday Times Maserati Top 100 as one of the greatest British innovators.

Compared to other rising bollards on the market, there is no central cylinder within the bollard contributing to its strength and durability, which has been evidenced through crash testing the product to the international standard, IWA 14-1. During the crash test, it halted a 7.2-tonne truck travelling at 64 kph (40 mph) and continued to function following the impact.

The US patent follows Heald previously securing GB and International Patents on the product in line with their business strategy of designing and manufacturing innovative hostile vehicle mitigation products to support their growth ambitions. Heald’s patents have led to their products being specified into several international projects. They have also listed in the Metis Partners IP100 listing for the past 3 years, ranking within the Top 10 across all categories.

The Evo, which also has GB and International Patents, can be operated by a variety of methods including manual, battery drill, electro-mechanical or hydraulically providing the customer with an install method to meet their needs. Requiring an install depth of 1100mm it provides an effective and efficient perimeter security solution.
