Growing trend: UK redevelopment programmes upgrade to composites

Concrete recess covers replaced by safe GRP composite alternatives

This year, Fibrelite has seen a growing trend of a wide range of facilities choosing to upgrade from the concrete recess access covers traditionally used in favour of bespoke composite alternatives.

The primary drivers of this change are initiatives around reducing manual handling risks and increasing efficiency, together with increased industry knowledge of GRP composite products.
