The Safevent anti-ligature window has won numerous awards and has become the benchmark fenestration product for the mental health sector in the UK.
Fortress 80 fencing
Secure fencing for mental health environments
Britplas Fortress 80 Fencing provides secure, anti-ligature and anti-climb boundary demarcation which can be printed with whatever image you choose to enhance your outdoor areas.
Designed and installed by Britplas and available in a variety of heights up to 5.2m, Fortress 80 Fencing creates a safe and secure boundary ideal for healthcare and mental health environments.
CoWin interactive panels
Maintaining control and ensuring safety are paramount in custodial facilities. The CoWin interactive panels have been developed by Recornect, technology experts in the correctional facilities sector.
CoWin helps to de-escalate challenging situations quickly and effectively and can be tailored to individual needs, fostering a sense of dignity and reducing the risk of further incidents.
Fortress Climb-Guard
Anti-climb for low pitch roofs in mental health environments
Britplas Fortress Climb-Guard is a curved aluminium profile which can be fitted to low roof pitches and wall areas to prevent people from climbing onto them and injuring themselves or absconding.
Each installation involves a bespoke design that can be fitted over virtually any gutter profile, or can include an integrated guttering system built in.
