U.S. FEDERAL GOVERNMENT ORDERS B&B ARMR’S NEW PORTABLE
BARRIER DESIGNED FOR QUICK DEPLOYMENT, PROTECTION AGAINST VEHICLE
ATTACKS
NORWOOD, LA—March 31, 2004—B&B ARMR Corporation announced today that its
anti-terrorist products gained an order for seven Model 850 Portable
Barriers for a project slated for the U.S. Federal Government.
“This
order from the Federal Government confirms the importance of B&B ARMR’s
continuous endeavors of developing an ever-increasing range of homeland
security products,” Peter Beare, B&B ARMR Chairman and CEO, said. “B&B
ARMR is committed to designing the highest quality perimeter security
products to protect our nation’s critical infrastructures.”
B&B ARMR’s
Model 850 Portable Barrier, a product released in January 2004, is
designed to serve as an instant road block for event control or areas
where foundation work cannot be safely or quickly enacted. With a crash
rating of K4, the portable barrier is capable of stopping a 15,000 pound
vehicle moving 30 mph, and with a mass of over 10000 pounds, this
hydraulically operated unit presents a formable deterrent.
Model 850
may be rapidly deployed in an emergency situation and fully operational
within 15 minutes and can be either manually or remotely controlled. The
barrier is designed to be towed to position using a medium-sized pick-up
truck or equivalent vehicle, and once in place the portable barrier
lowers itself with built-in hydraulic jacks, ready for instant
deployment.
