ZND US Named Exclusive U.S. Distributor for ättaGard Deployable Anti-Ram Bollard System

Agreement makes Ontario Bollards' crash-tested portable vehicle barrier available to U.S. rental companies nationwide.

GEORGETOWN, ON and STATESVILLE, N.C. , Sept. 15, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Ontario Bollards Inc., a Canadian manufacturer of perimeter protection systems, today announced that ZND US has been appointed exclusive U.S. distributor of the ättaGard deployable anti-ram bollard system. ZND US holds sole rights to sell ättaGard to rental companies and their affiliated distributors across the United States.

Vehicle-ramming incidents and tighter security requirements around festivals, parades, and work zones have made deployable anti-ram bollards a fast-growing category in perimeter security. ättaGard is a crash-tested portable bollard that sits directly on the pavement and deploys in minutes. No mounting, no excavation, no civil work, and no permanent footprint. Pedestrian-friendly and visually clean, it's a long step beyond the concrete blocks and Jersey walls cities have had to live with.

"Rental is how perimeter protection scales," said Gary Bryant, Chief Revenue Officer, Ontario Bollards Inc. "Cities, event organizers, contractors, and security teams need crash-tested vehicle barriers on the ground in hours, not months, through the rental companies they already work with. ZND US sells to the rental industry exclusively, understands the rental customer, and has the national footprint to make ättaGard available anywhere it's needed."

"ättaGard fits a clear gap in our customers' rental fleets," said Seth Walters, President, ZND US. "Event organizers, municipalities, and contractors managing high-risk work zones are asking our rental partners for crash-tested vehicle barriers more often. Until now, no deployable product met the engineering bar at the price point the rental channel needs. ättaGard solves that, and we're positioned to roll it out nationally."

ZND US will lead U.S. sales, channel development, and account management, serving law enforcement, public works, stadiums and special events, critical infrastructure, construction work zones, and government and corporate facilities through its rental partners.

The companies showcased ättaGard together at the APWA PWX conference in Houston and will exhibit at the IACP annual conference in Orlando this October. Product demonstrations, pilot deployments, and rental-channel rollouts are underway in key U.S. markets.
