A new European approved and crash-tested modular guardrail, Easyrail, is to be manufactured under licence in South Africa by engineering and manufacturing company Andrew Mentis.
This is the first time a guardrail of this type is to be manufactured in South Africa for use on local highways and secondary roads. Andrew Mentis has made a major investment in additional production lines to accommodate the new system. In the same tradition as its sought-after and widely used Mentrail Guardrail product line, the company expects the new Easyrail system to become another local institution. The SA Easyrail system is SABS certified for SANS1350 and is in the process of being certified for SANS 51317. Road Furnishings Services is the approved installer of the SA Easyrail system.
