Gemstone Vertical Panels

Plasticade has a great video describing their Gemstone Vertical Panel which we wanted to share.  These panels are among the best designed in the industry with faceted sidewalls which allow the panel to snap back into place if it’s run over.  They also have a recessed sheeting panel to protect the sheeting and help it last longer.  Additional reinforcement in the base adds extra support to resist splitting and tearing.

In addition to their use for channeling traffic, these vertical panels are very useful in parking lot applications. They come in orange and white colors to fit state requirements and the bases are made out of recycled rubber to help make it more environmentally friendly.  It’s a great, durable product all around and we highly recommend them for your parking lot and traffic control needs.

Parking Cones

Parking cones, also referred to as traffic cones or road cones come in several sizes and have many uses.  They range from 4  inches to 42 inches in height. The most commonly used parking cone sizes are the 28″ traffic cone and the 12″ traffic cone.  Traffic cones are very durable so they can withstand impact with cars and weather.

Parking cones can be used in construction zones for diverting traffic, for dividing lanes or used as parking devices. For use in construction zones and other traffic control, the 28″ traffic cone is generally the best choice because of their greater height and visibility. For city streets, the minimum acceptable height for traffic cones is 18 inches.

12″ traffic cones which are often used for in parking lots, for marking off play areas for kids, or as temporary barricades in indoor settings.  The smaller cones like 6″ parking cones are often used in sporting events.

Cones that are to be used in night settings must have a reflective collar.
