Berghaus shows latest developments with ProTec crash barrier

Visitors to the Peter Berghaus stand will see the result of continued development with the company’s ProTec family, resulting in its mobile crash barrier becoming a system. Initially, Berghaus focused on developing and using mobile crash barriers made of steel. This was followed soon after by a clever combination of steel and concrete, resulting in the first ProTec crash barrier to be successfully tested to the European standard DIN EN13172.

Visitors to the 102 Peter Berghaus stand will see the result of continued development with the company’s ProTec family, resulting in its mobile crash barrier becoming a system.


Initially, Berghaus focused on developing and using mobile crash barriers made of steel. This was followed soon after by a clever combination of steel and concrete, resulting in the first ProTec crash barrier to be successfully tested to the European standard DIN EN13172.

Subsequent advancements and development phases have resulted in a product line which Berghaus today refers to as the ProTec family: mobile crash barriers that have grown into a unique system solution with precise combinations and force-fit connections.

The ProTec system combines outstanding containment level and effective range values with minimum impact on passengers in the event of a collision with the mobile road restraint elements.
