High-vis barrier keeps them out

The High-vis banner keeps cows out and closes up tight for transport. The High-vis banner keeps cows out and closes up tight for transport.

It's sometimes claimed the best ideas are the simplest ones, and an entry in the Innovation Awards at Fieldays backed this thought.

Owners of CeeMee Ltd, Neil McKinley and Dell Wilkins, from Ngakuru, southwest of Rotorua, are dairy farmers who identified a need for temporary barriers onfarm. 

Their Click hi-vis barrier should prove useful in agriculture and anywhere else there is a need, eg keeping the public off a pristine lawn or out of a high hazard area in a car workshop.

Available in four sizes and widths from 5.8-7.8m, in green, blue, yellow, orange, pink and red, or maybe a mix of all, there is a combination for any application. 

The heavy duty plastic construction closes up tight for transport, has moulded all-weather handles at each end of the tape and a loop for a padlock to stop unauthorised people removing the barrier.
