HVM CT Block Planter – PAS 68 Hostile Vehicle Mitigation Planter

The HVM Steel CT Block Planter is a high‑performance hostile vehicle mitigation unit engineered to combine PAS 68‑certified impact protection with modern architectural aesthetics. Built as part of the Townscape CT Range, this planter features an integrated Counter Terror (CT) Block Vehicle Defence Barrier, providing discreet but highly effective protection for public spaces, transport environments, high‑profile buildings, and urban landscapes.

Manufactured in powder‑coated mild steel as standard, with corten and brushed stainless steel options available, the planter is supplied with a galvanised steel liner for enhanced durability and corrosion resistance. The planter design is a variant of Townscape’s tested CT Block, ensuring the same proven performance within a tailored planter format.

PAS 68 Crash-Test Performance

This planter incorporates the PAS 68‑tested CT Block (1490 × 990 × 600 mm), independently verified to the following classifications:

• 30 mph (single block): V/7500/N2/48/90/6.6/0.0
• 40 mph (single block): V/7500/N2/64/90/12.3/2.2
• 30 mph (three staggered blocks): V/7500/N2/48/60/2.0/0.0

This means the planter is engineered to resist a 7.5‑tonne vehicle impact, making it suitable for security‑sensitive environments where landscaping must also perform a protective role.

Material Options (SKUs)

• VED/0100MS – Powder‑Coated Mild Steel
• VED/0100C – Corten Steel
• VED/0100SS – Brushed Stainless Steel

This versatility allows the planter to suit a wide range of architectural styles, from contemporary retail spaces to civic squares and heritage areas.
