After recently winning the regional Design X50 award, this iF Design Award shows at a global level how the new FLEX IMPACT® column protectors manufactured by Boplan excel with their looks and effectiveness.

With FLEX IMPACT® column protection, you can not only prevent costly damage to your buildings and vehicles, but the driver is also better protected against injuries due to the unique properties of FLEX IMPACT®. Thanks to their absorbing power they eliminate almost all risk of damage and by doing so safeguard the structural integrity of your columns.
