Hostile Vehicle Mitigation (HVM)
What is HVM?
HVM is about stopping vehicles from entering places they shouldn’t — whether it’s a deliberate attack, a ram raid, or someone losing control. It helps protect public spaces, entrances, and busy areas from serious risk.
Products like bollards, planters, benches, and road blockers provide real protection while blending into the environment. The best setups do the job without making spaces feel restricted or closed off.
Why It Matters
Vehicles can cause major harm when they go off course — intentionally or not. That’s why HVM is used in places where safety matters: town centres, venues, stations, and infrastructure sites.
It’s not about barriers everywhere — it’s about putting the right kit in the right place, so people stay safe and spaces stay open.
What We Offer
PAS-rated Bollards – Fixed, removable or automatic
HVM Planters – Decorative but strong
Street Furniture – Benches and more with built-in protection
Road Blockers & Barriers – For controlled, high-security sites
All tested to PAS 68 or IWA 14-1 standards — meaning they’ve been crash-tested and proven to stop vehicles. It’s proper protection, not just for show.
