The HALO 80 Limited Aperture Blast Resistant Litter Bin provides a robust solution to the threat of terrorist attacks in busy public areas by protecting against the blast and fragments of an explosive device and reducing overpressure. Tested to UK Home Office Standards (2011), this non-fragmenting blast bin is specifically designed to safeguard the public and structures from blast effects in sensitive locations such as airports, government buildings, stadiums and shopping centres.
The Limited Aperture version of our standard Halo 80 model includes oval-shaped apertures and a lid to increase the weather-resistant properties of this bin when being used outdoors.
The unit incorporates SABREMAT composite technology which enables the bin to absorb and mitigate the lethal effects of explosions. A standard litter bin will fragment under blast loading spreading the lethal blast effects further, whilst the shell of the HALO 80 remains intact providing all-round horizontal protection, with the lid disintegrating into harmless particles.
