Kooch Kavach
World’s First Bamboo Crash Barrier
Kooch Kavach Bamboo Crash Barrier is a sustainable and modern protective guardrail for highways, providing a viable alternative to traditional Steel Crash Barriers.
Complying with the common EU standard “EN 1317-2 – containment level H1,” it offers comparable levels of containment to metal beam and w metal beam crash barriers.
Made from renewable and eco-friendly bamboo, it provides the strength and durability necessary for impact protection while minimizing its environmental impact.
Kooch Kavach offers a range of bamboo and metal beam crash barrier options, ensuring maximum protection while promoting sustainable infrastructure.
Bamboo Crash Barrier – Kooch Kavach is made of Bahu Balli, an innovative composite material exclusive to our company. Bahu Balli combines Vacuum Pressure Impregnation (VPI)-treated and HDPE-coated bamboo poles that provide superior strength and mechanical properties compared to steel and traditional bamboo. This sustainable and eco-friendly solution meets safety standards and is a cost-effective alternative to metal beam crash barriers and w metal beam crash barriers.
Bamboo Crash Barrier Bahubali offers superior bending load carrying strength and dynamic flexibility, similar to traditional steel crash barriers and w metal beam crash barriers. Our Kooch Kavach Bamboo Crash Barrier provides excellent protection, meets safety standards and offers a sustainable and eco-friendly alternative to metal beam crash barrier and w metal beam crash barrier/ thrie beam crash barrier.
Bahubali Bamboo Crash Barrier is a weatherproof solution, treated with Creosote by VPI to protect from termite, borer, and insect infestations. Our bamboo crash barrier is coated with HDPE for resistance to heat, light, and water, eliminating the need for maintenance. Using mature bamboo species with specific mechanical strengths from India, our bamboo crash barrier meets safety standards and offers a sustainable alternative to metal beam crash barriers.

frequently asked questions (FAQ)
A bamboo crash barrier is a safety barrier made primarily from bamboo materials. It is designed to minimize the impact of a crash or collision, providing protection to vehicles and occupants.
Bamboo offers several advantages as a material for crash barriers. It is lightweight yet strong, which makes it effective in absorbing and dispersing impact forces. Bamboo also possesses natural flexibility, allowing it to bend and absorb energy during a collision. Additionally, bamboo is sustainable, renewable, and environmentally friendly, making it an attractive alternative to traditional crash barrier materials.
The effectiveness of a crash barrier depends on various factors such as design, installation, and specific crash scenarios. While bamboo crash barriers can provide adequate protection in many cases, it’s important to note that they may not be as widely tested and standardized as barriers made from materials like steel or concrete. Extensive research and testing are necessary to determine the specific performance and effectiveness of bamboo crash barriers in different conditions.
Bamboo crash barriers are still relatively new and not as widely used as traditional crash barrier materials. However, their popularity is growing due to the increasing focus on sustainable and eco-friendly solutions. Some regions or countries with significant bamboo resources may be more inclined to explore the use of bamboo crash barriers.
The installation process for bamboo crash barriers can vary depending on the specific design and requirements. Generally, the barriers are assembled by interconnecting bamboo elements using appropriate fasteners or connectors. The barriers are then securely anchored to the ground using foundations or supports. It is essential to follow the manufacturer’s instructions and consult with experts for proper installation techniques.
Yes, bamboo crash barriers are considered sustainable. Bamboo is a rapidly renewable resource, as it grows much faster than traditional trees used for barrier construction. It requires minimal water, pesticides, or fertilizers to grow, making it an environmentally friendly alternative. Additionally, bamboo helps sequester carbon dioxide, further contributing to its sustainable nature.
Yes, bamboo crash barriers can be customized to a certain extent. The design, size, and appearance can be tailored to meet specific project requirements. Different bamboo species, finishes, and decorative elements can also be incorporated to achieve desired aesthetics. However, it is important to balance customization with safety standards and ensure that the barriers meet the necessary performance criteria.
Bamboo crash barriers can exhibit significant strength and durability when designed and constructed properly. Bamboo is known for its high tensile strength, which allows it to withstand and absorb impact forces during a crash. However, the specific strength will depend on the design, thickness, and construction techniques employed.
