The Fibrelite technical team presented a bespoke, lightweight proposal comprised of yellow composite FRP trench access covers retrofitted directly into the existing frames, minimizing upheaval to the site and avoiding breaking concrete.

Key features of the Fibrelite solution:

  • F900 load rated, as per end user mandate.
  • Fibrelite lightweight FRP access covers eliminate health and safety risks surrounding manual handling: Fibrelite covers can be easily and safely removed and replaced manually by two people (even with an F900 load rating) using Fibrelite's ergonomically designed FL7 lifting handles.
  • Fast and safe removal/replacement allowing maximum time for maintenance work (2-minute window).
  • Fibrelite access covers were manufactured using yellow color pigment in order to assist the maintenance team with the identification of services beneath. The pigment is added to the resin during the manufacturing process, so there are no issues with color scratching or fading over time.
