What happens here

Kevin, a Boplan representative, introduces the product, explaining that Boplan USA uses a proprietary polymer called 'Nolene'. He states that this material manages energy differently and eliminates vibration upon impact. The video then shows a demonstration of a forklift impacting a barrier, highlighting how the polymer absorbs the impact rather than transferring vibration to the concrete foundation.

Goal: Introduce the Boplan safety barrier and its core material

Tools and materials

  • Boplan Safety Barrier — Demonstrating impact absorption characteristics
  • Forklift — Simulating impact on the safety barrier in video footage

What they say

half. All right, Kevin. What is it we're looking at with this system now? Yeah, so we are both playing USA and this is our polymer called Novolin. It's a proprietary blend where we basically manage energy differently and then we limit eliminate the vibration that occurs. So, it still gets impacted, it vibrates, that vibration goes down to the anchors and over time it pulverizes the concrete. But what also it does is it doesn't absorb an impact. So, all it knows how to do is absorb. So, what we do is we manage that energy differently and then we eliminate that vibration so we can get hit time and time again without needing to be maintained or replaced. So, unlike concrete which will pulverize both the forklift and the material itself, this saves the forklifts. Yes, sir. It saves your
