What Is a Safety Bumper?
A safety bumper is a device designed to mitigate damage from vehicle or pedestrian collisions.
Installed on the front or sides of vehicles, safety bumpers act as mechanisms for absorbing impact. They are composed of two primary components: materials that absorb impact and a supporting structure. The impact-absorbing materials, commonly foam or polyurethane, are designed to deform and absorb shocks. The supporting structure aims to evenly distribute the force of the impact.
Safety bumpers find application in various environments, including automobiles, construction equipment, forklifts, automated guided vehicles (AGVs), amusement park rides, and warehouses. Essential elements comprise the outer casing, shock-absorbing materials, structural framework, and attachment fixtures, providing exceptional benefits in safety, durability, lightness, design appeal, and cost efficiency.
