In North Korea, the demand for crowd barriers is driven by large-scale state events and the management of industrial workforce movements. The market is characterized by a preference for extreme durability and longevity due to the limited availability of replacement parts, favoring heavy-gauge steel constructions.
Climate factors, including severe winters and high humidity in coastal regions, necessitate advanced anti-corrosion treatments. Standard metal barricades must undergo rigorous galvanization to prevent rust, ensuring they remain functional despite the harsh environmental stressors typical of the Korean Peninsula.
Currently, there is a transition from makeshift wooden or light-metal fences toward standardized crowd control barricades. This shift is motivated by the need for rapid deployment during national celebrations and the synchronization of security protocols across different provinces.
