Multi-Storey and Surface Car Parks

Multi-Storey and Surface Car Parks

EV Containment and Protection Walling

As electric vehicles become standard across public and private parking facilities, car park design must respond to new safety and operational demands.

Elite Precast EV Containment and Protection Walling provides a robust precast concrete solution for both multi-storey and surface car parks, helping to protect users, vehicles and critical infrastructure.

Manufactured in the UK and engineered for long-term performance, our containment walling supports safer, more resilient parking environments as EV adoption continues to grow.

What Are Legato® Interlocking Concrete Blocks?

Addressing EV Risks in Modern Car Parks

Electric vehicles typically weigh more than traditional vehicles and can generate higher impact forces. In multi-storey and surface car parks, this creates additional risk to structures, pedestrians and parked vehicles. Precast containment walling plays a vital role in:

  • Managing vehicle impact and over-run risk

  • Protecting structural elements and perimeter edges

  • Separating vehicles from pedestrian walkways

  • Safeguarding plant rooms, substations and EV charging equipment

Concrete containment offers a permanent solution suited to high-traffic, confined environments.

Benefits

Benefits of Precast Containment Walling in Car Parks

  • Impact Resistance and Structural Protection — Precast concrete delivers high strength and durability, helping to absorb impact forces and protect surrounding structures.

  • Fire-Resistant Performance — Concrete's non-combustible nature supports EV fire safety strategies within enclosed or semi-enclosed parking structures.

  • Speed of Installation — Factory-manufactured units enable rapid installation, reducing programme times and on-site disruption.

  • Low Maintenance and Long Service Life — Precast containment walling requires minimal upkeep, delivering low whole-life cost for car park operators and owners.

  • Design Flexibility — Systems can be designed to integrate with architectural finishes, balustrades or other precast elements.
