HVM Solution

  When we first began working with government facilities across the UAE, one challenge surfaced repeatedly: security directors needed robust vehicle barriers that could integrate seamlessly into existing urban landscapes without requiring extensive excavation or months-long installation timelines. This challenge has shaped how we approach perimeter security in the region. Understanding Hostile Vehicle Mitigation in High-Risk Environments Hostile Vehicle Mitigation (HVM) bollards represent a fundamental shift in how we protect public spaces. Unlike standard traffic posts, these are crash-rated barriers engineered to stop vehicles traveling at high speeds often 50 mph or more dead in their tracks. The physics are straightforward but demanding: when a 7.5-ton vehicle moving at speed meets a properly engineered bollard, the bollard must absorb and redirect tremendous kinetic energy without failing. This requires precise engineering validated through internationally recognized crash te...
