Gibraltar US has assigned to Betafence all of its worldwide rights, title and interest in cable-based anti-ram crash fences, barriers and gates as well as designs, patents and certificates. Betafence will also have the right to continue to market these products globally under the Gibraltar brand.

Bill Neusch, president of Gibraltar commented, “Having enjoyed a successful partnership in the market since 2011, we are pleased that Betafence will be able to continue the innovation of these cable based crash fences, barriers and gates. Gibraltar will now continue to focus on marketing its other safety products.”

Michele Volpi, CEO of Betafence stated, “The patented, certified and field proven portfolio of Gibraltar cable-based anti-ram crash fences, barriers and gates are a key addition to our perimeter security solutions offering. These products complement the physical access control systems that we acquired with SecureUSA in 2014.
