Composite trench panels as alternative to metal and concrete

Fibrelite has launched its new A15 load rated 50mm depth trench panels available in sizes from 800mm to 1600mm long, incorporating recycled glass fibres into the design. The composite covers provide an alternative to metal and concrete access covers and are suitable for access to sewage systems, underground pipework and drainage networks. The covers are inert so will not corrode, are not electrically conductive and have low thermal conductivity, according to the manufacturer. The covers have a guaranteed "lifespan of 15 maintenance free years" and are fully lockable. www.fibrelite.com
