Light. Strong. Composite.

Fibrelite composite access covers can be customised to suit almost any application, worldwide.

When it comes to lightweight composite technology, Fibrelite have revolutionized revolutionised the industry to become world leading pioneers.

Fibrelite was founded on two simple principles: uncompromising quality and endless innovation.

In 1980, we designed the world’s first composite manhole cover for Esso UK (ExxonMobil) – eliminating manual handling and any other health and safety issues associated with traditional metal covers.

Today, we remain at the cutting-edge of composite technology, pushing what’s possible, to fuel a new generation of maintenance-free products that meet the needs of clients across the globe.

Our ground-breaking F900 load rated trench cover and multiport sealed cover system are just two examples why, from airports, ports and energy, to retail and utilities, the future of FRP GRP remains Fibrelite.
