Elite Precast’s Minion-Bollard® is proving to be a valuable asset in parks and public spaces, offering a flexible and practical solution for managing restricted areas while supporting safe, accessible environments. According to Business Development Director Paul Cartwright, the bollards are helping groundskeepers carry out their work more efficiently without compromising the safety or functionality of the space.

Supporting Controlled Vehicle Access
Minion-Bollards® are designed to prevent unauthorised vehicles from entering parks, playgrounds and other sensitive areas, protecting both infrastructure and the natural environment. Thanks to their semi-permanent design, they can be easily removed to allow access for authorised vehicles, such as maintenance teams or emergency services, when required.

Streamlining Maintenance Tasks
For groundskeepers, the ability to quickly remove or reposition Minion-Bollards® simplifies routine maintenance. Whether mowing grass, landscaping, carrying out repairs or preparing for special events, these bollards ensure that no permanent obstacles hinder essential tasks.

Improving Safety for Visitors
The bollards can be strategically placed to direct pedestrians away from high-risk areas like roads and car parks. Their distinctive, rounded design provides a clear visual marker while offering a physical barrier, enhancing safety for both the public and staff.

Adaptable Placement
As freestanding units, Minion-Bollards® require no anchoring, allowing them to be repositioned easily. This flexibility is ideal for adjusting layouts during seasonal changes, event set-ups or landscaping alterations.

Durable and Low Maintenance
Manufactured from high-strength concrete, Minion-Bollards® are built to withstand the elements with minimal wear and tear. Their durability reduces the need for frequent maintenance or replacement, saving both time and resources for local authorities and park teams.

Vehicle Protection and Site Security
These bollards are effective at preventing unauthorised vehicles from accessing restricted zones or damaging grounds during public events. They provide either temporary or long-term edge protection without detracting from the visual appeal of the space.

Cost-Effective and Versatile Design
Minion-Bollards® offer multifunctional use—whether supporting signage, connecting with barrier chains, or acting as standalone units. Their versatility reduces the need for multiple products, delivering a cost-effective solution for managing public spaces.

By incorporating Minion-Bollards® into their management strategies, groundskeepers can create safer, more accessible, and visually appealing environments while streamlining maintenance operations.

Combining practicality with adaptability, Minion-Bollards® are quickly becoming an essential tool—and a trusted ally—for groundskeepers across the UK.
