In this project we were approached by an OEM who provides Onshore Power Supply (OPS) systems, to quote for this large leisure cruise terminal upgrade project.

Fibrelite provided this regional UK airport with an upgrade for their access covers over their off-apron runway lighting pits. Ease of access to the runway…
Fibrelite was tasked with providing a retrofit 90 ton load rated lightweight cover that could withstand the rigors and working environment of an extremely busy commercial port.
The initial approach came from the port’s maintenance team who were exploring alternative replacement options for the extremely heavy and corroding steel covers that required dedicated lifting equipment, which incurred substantial financial costs with equipment, manpower and time, every time fresh water was transferred to the ship.
The replacement covers that Fibrelite supplied were load rated to F900 and color coded yellow to denote fresh drinking water supply. The regional water authority had previously specified that the covers must be secured to prevent unauthorized access so Fibrelite provided a bolt down version so that the trench covers could be secured to the existing frame.
The Fibrelite trench covers were designed to fit directly into the existing frame, which eliminated any breakout cost and greatly reduced the installation costs. The replacement trench covers are easily and safely removed and replaced by using the Fibrelite lifting handles (FL7).
One of the port’s work inspectors was quoted as saying “You will be pleased to hear that the works was completed yesterday and going forward will prove to be a huge improvement to our delivery of water to vessels”.
The Fibrelite lightweight composite trench covers can be used for a multitude of applications: from ports and dockyards, industrial facilities, airports, HGV loading areas.
