Fibrelite covers provide custom solution for the Royal Canadian Mint

At the Royal Canadian Mint, conveyor belts and other machinery runs below floor level to conserve space. These require frequent access for monitoring and maintenance. In the search for a safer simpler alternative to previously installed heavy steel panels, they approached Fibrelite who designed and manufactured custom fiber glass reinforced plastic (FRP) (GRP) composite trench covers to fit directly into existing apertures.

“…The new FRP GRP composite panels worked out well. Our people are really happy with the way they perform. These lightweight panels do not require strenuous effort to remove and replace and has completely eliminated the risks of employee injuries when performing this task.”
