Safence wire rope safety fence is developed in a way that allows the systems to remain functional even after a collision. Under normal circumstances the cables remain essentially at their correct heights even with a number of posts are knocked out and totally missing.

In addition to standard collision tests, Blue Systems has also carried out crash tests simulating a previously damaged installation at extra-high speeds and more extremely angled collisions.
