The Essence of Mine Safety with Barry

For over 20 years, Barry has been at the forefront of mine safety innovation with the creation of its specialized safety fence designed for mine sites. Developed in Val d’Or, Quebec, with input from mining experts, this safety fence has become a globally recognized product. Born from a need to ensure safety in the toughest environments, it remains a top choice for delineating high-risk areas, both on the surface and underground.

Unique Design and High Visibility

Barry’s safety fence stands out with its fluorescent orange color, ensuring maximum visibility even in challenging work conditions. Made from durable polyester with a special coating, it is engineered to stay in place and remain visible even after detonation—a crucial feature for safeguarding workers during post-blast inspections.

Thanks to its lightweight, flexible design, this safety fence is easy to handle, providing a practical alternative to traditional barriers, which are often bulky and hard to maneuver. Miners can easily transport, install, and remove it without risk of injury or wasted time—an invaluable asset for daily operations.

 

A Versatile Product for Various Applications

Although primarily used to secure the entry points of blasting zones, Barry's safety fence is highly versatile, making it suitable for multiple other applications. It can be used for:

  • Temporary work zone barriers for specific tasks.
  • Protection against falling objects on scaffolding, platforms, and other elevated work environments.
  • Safety perimeter fencing in mines or other industrial sites.

Tangible Benefits for Users

The benefits of Barry’s safety fence extend beyond its durability. Its innovative, lightweight design makes handling easier, simplifying transportation, installation, and storage. Packaged in cardboard-centered rolls, the safety fence is easy to transport and offers excellent value. Each roll measures 100 yards (300 feet) in length and 50 inches in width, ideal for covering large areas.

Moreover, this product requires minimal maintenance. Even when exposed to extreme conditions, such as regular mine blasts, it retains its functionality and visibility over the long term. Its resistance to UV and weathering makes it a durable choice, both underground and in outdoor environments.
