Stainless steel balustrade for use as a partitioning system.
S3i manufactured a stainless steel portable balustrade for use in the McLaren factory, Surrey.
McLaren required a portable yet simple partitioning system to segregate the production line for the P1 sports car.

The vertical balustrade posts have been specially designed to slot neatly into floor sockets, creating a secure yet removable structure.

A slider mechanism was used on the handrail posts to secure the tubes or release when required.
