R&D

Making tomorrow's bollards today

At FCI Urban, our specialization in the manufacture of bollards and security bollards , has allowed us to create our own R&D department in which we use all our know-how and our resources to create a product that adapts better and better to current needs and problems.

Innovating in sustainability.

The fight against climate change and pollution is also our objective and our responsibility. It is a real challenge that we must and want to face every day. For this reason, at FCI Urban we invest in new sustainable materials for our bollards and security bollards, making them 100% recyclable, as well as resistant, safe for pedestrians and not require any maintenance.

People-centered design

In recent years, new forms of mobility such as bicycles and electric scooters have driven a change in the structure of many cities, where new traffic lanes and more security elements have been added. For these vehicles, as well as for pedestrians, lmetal bollards can represent a danger, due to their extreme rigidity and hardness

At FCI Urban, after thorough testing, we have developed a material with its own chemical composition that makes it flexible enough to avoid serious injuries in case of impact, as well as to allow the passage of emergency vehicles, but also rigid enough to to prevent the passage of other vehicles.

Our contribution to smart cities

Our R&D department is already working on a new type of smart bollard that will respond to the need for cities to be increasingly more interactive, safe, sustainable and inclusive.
