Coruna airport in Spain is to have a jet blast barrier designed, manufactured and installed by IAC’s Spanish subsidiary, IAC Stopson. 
This latest blast barrier will be 126 metres long and 4.7 metres high. It will protect the airport service area from jet blast. Manufactured from 3-mm galvanised steel sheet, the barrier will be painted in standard aeronautical colours of snow white and red and in line will be fitted with the corresponding warning lights. It will carry 160 red LEDs and be able to withstand temperatures of -40ºC to +55ºC. IAC barriers all match the norms for airport blast barriers as laid down by the ICAO, the International Civil Aviation Organisation. (Image shows the IAC barrier at Zaragoza airport.)
