Flow Plates: Controlling The Direction of Traffic

Flow plates allow the direction of the traffic to be controlled within areas such as car parks and industrial estates.

Various flow plates are available to meet your requirements. For example, Standard Flow Plates are designed for smaller car parks where there is a low-medium traffic flow. Heavy Duty Flow Plates are designed for areas where HGV's may be present, for instance industrial estates. Flow Plates with Sharks Teeth are suitable for cars and HGV'S. They are provided with a spring so the teeth are suppressed when the driver drives in the correct direction. If the driver drives over the sharks teeth in the wrong direction their tyres may be damaged.
