SMA Road Safety, an acclaimed Italian company known for its innovations in road safety, has made a significant step forward by joining the Spanish Road Association (AEC) as a new partner under the “Collaborating Entity” category. This agreement was signed by Roberto Impero, CEO of SMA, and Juan Francisco Lazcano, president of the AEC, thus solidifying an alliance that promises to bring significant advancements in road safety.
With the clear purpose of reducing the tragic consequences of traffic accidents, SMA Road Safety carries out its work with the motto “Saving as many lives as possible on the road.” The company specializes in the design, manufacturing, and distribution of road restraint solutions that have been implemented in over 50 countries, including impact attenuators and double-sided terminals, as well as advanced monitoring systems.
Among its innovative products is a monitoring system that allows for the storage and detection of data in real-time, functioning autonomously to optimize road safety. Its dynamic weighing technology has gained recognition for its precision and low maintenance cost, effectively applied in both industrial sectors and on roads and customs points.
SMA Road Safety’s commitment to road safety goes beyond mere equipment construction by promoting awareness of the importance of safe infrastructure. The company organizes seminars and conferences and produces educational materials. With its integration into the AEC, SMA aims to enhance these activities and actively participate in initiatives that promote both road safety and environmental sustainability on routes.
The journey of this company in the field of road safety began in 1969 when Pasquale Impero established his first company in Italy. His innovative spirit led him to develop a honeycomb-shaped metal panel that became a standard for energy absorption in impacts. Over the decades, the company evolved into what is now known as SMA Road Safety, led by Roberto Impero, who continues to expand its global presence from Italy, guided by a firm commitment to safety and technological innovation on the roads.
