Steel Sand Barrier

Sand Fence (for Road) Our sand fences, a collection of custom metal fencing, are a
ble to reduce the capability of wind transportation and deposition by blocking the sand
and deflecting the wind, thereby preventing the road from sand burial.

The road and railway go through desert areas is facing poor natural conditions. Traffic
is frequently suspended due to the strong wind and sand. People plant trees, shrub a
nd grass along the road to prevent the wind and fix the sand. But due to drought and
water shortage, the survival rate of these plants is low and the cost of maintenance is
high. It is difficult to solve the problem of sand resistance and sand damage fundame
ntally.

Taking the advantage of aerodynamics and the force of wind, Unipromet’s brand steel
sand barrier reduces the capacity of wind transport and deposition by blocking the sand
and deflecting the wind, thereby the road is effectively prevented from sand burial.
Advantage:

1. The material is environmental friendly. It will not bring any pollution problem.
2. Corrosion resistance and long service life
3. Easy to install and low maintenance cost
4. Lower construction cost
5. Special split design facilitates replacement.
6. Compared with the biological measures, steel sand barrier can be effective in short
time

Material:
• Cold Rolled Steel Plate
• Galvanized Steel Plate
• Aluminum-zinc Coated Steel Coil
• Stainless steel
• Microlegulated materials

Surface treatment: Electrostatic powder spray

Sand Fence (for Railway) While acting as common


railway fencing to protect human beings and
animals, our steel sand fence can improve the
traveling safety of trains by preventing railways from
buried by sand.

Sand Fence (for Buildings)In desert areas, sand


dust affect the lives of local residents. Sand grains
may also enter into equipment sets, causing severe
wears. Therefore, a proper set of sand fence system
should be installed around the buildings to help
control blowing sand.

Sand Fence (for Desert/Shoreline) Our sand fence


system is mainly composed of three parts: the
foundation, steel structure and the steel fence
panels. The steel structure and fence panels are
available with customized specifications. All
structural posts are manufactured in our factory to
ensure the best quality.
Sand fences are custom designed steel fences designed to reduce wind velocity and
to trap blowing sand. Our line of sand fencing typically consists of perforated metal
sheets, steel posts, and stainless steel fasteners. We welcome you to contact us for
any style of sand fence design.

How does the Sand Fence Work?

Sand fences are erected for sand drift control. When blowing sand encounters any kind
of obstacles on the sand flow route, it will cause decreasing in wind speed which then
results in reduced wind capacity in sand transportation. Thus, part of the sand carried
by the wind will deposit in front of or behind of the obstacles, which means the effect
of sand control is achieved. Our steel sand fences play the role of an obstacle.

For better sand drift control and desertification prevention effects, multiple groups of
sand barriers can be used together.

Additionally, our sand fences can be used as windbreak fencing to help reduce wind
speed, thus minimizing crosswind's effect on driving stability of vehicles at high speed
conditions.

Why Install Sand Fences for Roads?

In sandy and windy areas, grains of sand are often carried by winds and collect on the
road. Thus, the road is very likely to be buried by sand, which will affect the normal
traffic or even cause traffic disruption.

Our sand fences, a collection of custom metal


fencing, are able to reduce the capability of wind
transportation and deposition by blocking the sand
and deflecting the wind, thereby preventing the road
from sand burial.
Sand fences are more necessary in desert areas where has poor natural conditions
and often comes with strong winds and sands. Roads and highways along these
areas are often suspended because these issues. Although people may have
planted a large variety of trees, shrub and grass along the road where sand damage
happens frequently, hoping that these plants can resist wind and reduce sand on
highways. However, due to drought and water shortage, the survival rate of these
plants is low and the cost is large. This makes our steel sand fences the best solution
for roadside sand control in desert areas.
Aperture ratio: 30%-40%
Width: 250-300mm
Length: Max. 6m

Note: The sand fence for roadside installation is customizable. We can offer the
optimized steel fencing solutions according to the wind speed, wind pressure,
geological conditions, climate conditions, etc. at your project site.

Sand Fence for Buildings

Similar to our snow fences, our sand fences are custom designed steel fences
designed to reduce wind velocity and to trap blowing sand. Our line of sand fencing
typically consists of perforated metal sheets, steel posts, and stainless steel fasteners.
We welcome you to contact us for any style of sand fence design.

On the sand flow route, any kind of obstacle will cause reduction in wind speed, which
in turn helps control the blowing sand. Based on this principle, we have designed this
series of sand fence for sand control for variety of buildings in desert areas. Fabricated
from premium steel, our steel sand barriers can also serve as privacy fences, with
customizable aperture ratio and fence panel specifications.

Why Sand Fences are Necessary for Buildings in Desert Area?

In desert areas, sand dust affect the lives of local residents. Sand grains may also
enter into equipment sets, causing severe wears. Therefore, a proper set of sand fence
system should be installed around the buildings to help control blowing sand.
