This large multinational satellite services provider specified the Fibrelite Trenwa partnership trench and cover system for their latest satellite earth station antenna facility in the U.S.
Once in a while, a product will come along whose performance will drive a change in standards across entire industries. Like stainless steel. Or concrete. Or a trench cover which
Operators of district energy heating systems have become increasingly aware of the dangers posed by hot cast iron manholes. This concern is even more pronounced in campus environments where steam manholes are located throughout the campus and many students tend to wear sandals and “flip flops” in warmer weather.
In 2010, these concerns lead the utilities department of a leading engineering university based in Cambridge, Massachusetts to consider replacing traditional, steel manhole covers with Fibrelite’s composite alternative.
After performing testing on their existing steel covers, the system managers concluded that the surface temperature of these manhole covers was dangerously high wherever the underground piping lacked sufficient thermal insulation. Furthermore, during the warmer summer months, the heat from the sun would also result in significant temperature increases on the exposed metal covers.
