Secure, Efficient, Elite – The Concrete Advantage for Security within Agriculture
Elite Precast Concrete offers a comprehensive range of precast concrete products specifically designed to improve security and operational efficiency in the agricultural sector. According to Sales and Marketing Director Owen Batham, the company is ideally placed to support modern farms in safeguarding their assets, livestock and infrastructure.
Among the most popular solutions are Elite’s concrete barriers and security blocks, including their renowned Jersey Barriers and Jersey-Lite™ barriers. These robust, quick-to-deploy barriers are ideal for:
-
Securing farm perimeters against unauthorised access
-
Protecting valuable machinery, storage facilities and livestock from theft or intrusion
-
Managing vehicle movements and traffic around the farm. Thanks to their interlocking design and high-strength concrete construction, these barriers are both secure and easily repositioned to suit evolving farm layouts.
Elite’s interlocking concrete blocks, such as the Legato® and Duo™ ranges, are widely used to construct storage bays, waste handling areas and material bays. These blocks are fire-resistant, extremely durable and well suited to demanding environments where heavy machinery is routinely in operation. Their ease of installation and long service life make them a practical choice for farms looking to enhance both security and site organisation.
Precast retaining walls and storage bays also support land management and help prevent soil erosion, while acting as effective barriers to limit access to sensitive areas of the farm.
Channels, ducts and lids are another key offering. These units protect underground services, such as electrical cabling and water lines, from damage or tampering. With removable lids for easy maintenance access, they help preserve the integrity and security of vital infrastructure.
Owen Batham highlights several advantages of using precast concrete solutions in agricultural settings:
Durability and Low Maintenance
All Elite Precast products are built to withstand extreme weather, constant use and UV exposure, offering reliable security with minimal ongoing maintenance.
Rapid Installation
Solutions can be deployed quickly using standard on-site equipment, reducing disruption and delivering immediate improvements to farm security.
Versatility
These products are suitable for a wide range of applications, from livestock enclosures to flood defence barriers, offering adaptable solutions for changing farm requirements.
Cost-Effectiveness
Their long-term durability and potential eligibility for tax relief under the Annual Investment Allowance (AIA) scheme make these solutions financially appealing for agricultural businesses.
Owen concludes that Elite Precast Concrete’s tailored offerings provide farms with the tools they need to secure their sites, protect critical assets and maintain efficient, safe operations—all while meeting the rigorous standards expected within the industry.
