FlexiShield Column Guard

FlexiShield Column Guard is designed to provide robust column protection for facilities with standard square and rectangular columns.  

FlexiShield Column Guard is quick and easy to install. Its modular, interlocking sections guarantee a tight fit to all sides of the column, for minimal footprint. It can be configured to any height by stacking multiple Column Guards together. Column fixings are encased within the structure to keep them save from impacts and prevent floor damage.  

The unique design features structural support ribs for increased strength and fork deflection, as well as specially formed air channels to dissipate impact forces.
