Fibrelite Makes a Splash at
Ports of Immingham & Gdańsk (Container Terminal DCT)

Container Terminal DCT Gdańsk (Poland) and Port of Immingham (UK) adopt Fibrelite’s heavy-duty composite access covers to increase safety and efficiency

Traditionally concrete and metal were the only materials able to provide the load ratings required for port access covers, but since Fibrelite’s development of a 90 ton tonne (F900) load rated lightweight FRP GRP alternative, increasing numbers of ports are going composite.

An inherent resistance to corrosion from saltwater and fuel and safe manual handling at high load ratings make composites an attractive solution for portside applications.
