Where FOD Starts
Debris Doesn't Belong on the Runway
Most FOD begins in a non-threatening position off-runway. Jet blast from taxiing and departing aircraft pushes it onto active surfaces - where it causes damage.
Every year, foreign object debris damages engines, blows tires, gouges fuselages, delays flights, and endangers lives. The Airvrix FOD Barrier stops debris at the source.
Most FOD begins in a non-threatening position off-runway. Jet blast from taxiing and departing aircraft pushes it onto active surfaces - where it causes damage.
Designed to meet aviation safety standards for runway equipment - suitable for civil and commercial airports.
Folds flat instantly to let service vehicles, fuel trucks, and emergency response cross - then returns to protect.
Performs in rain, snow, and heat - with integrated drainage to prevent ponding and ice buildup.
Durable patented construction requires minimal upkeep - engineered for years of continuous service.
Installed along runway and taxiway priority zones to block debris migration from jet blast.
A single prevented FOD incident pays for itself many times over - in repairs, delays, and insurance savings.
Airvrix engineers work with your airport operations team to identify the highest-value deployment areas - starting with zones where FOD risk is greatest.
