Designed to make navigating surroundings less hazardous and more time-efficient, the last thing you need is the inconvenience of platforms and walkways that require constant maintenance. It’s for this reason that equipment manufactured from glass reinforced plastic is such a great investment.
Extremely durable, hardy to the elements, non-conductive, resistant to corrosion, and with a built-in anti-slip surface, with platforms and walkways made from GRP you’re investing in a long term and cost-effective solution.
Characteristically lightweight, platforms made from GRP are quick and easy to manoeuvre and relocate on site when required. Making them a simple and convenient solution for all your access needs.
What types of platforms are available?
Providing walkways and platforms that are fit for purpose is essential for optimum safety.
There are a number of different options on the market, including:
