New branding and global positioning

Fibrelite has led the way in composite technology since 1980 with the design of the world’s first composite manhole cover as a prototype for Esso UK to eliminate health and safety issues associated with traditional heavy metal covers. From there, Fibrelite grew as the retail petroleum industry adopted their covers as the industry standard, now selling to over 80 countries worldwide with manufacturing facilities on three continents. 

Fibrelite continues to evolve, with key events including the opening of a US manufacturing plant in 2005 and Malaysia in 2010, which saw record sales the year immediately following its opening.

Fibrelite was then acquired by OPW in 2013, a global leader in fully integrated fuel handling and control solutions which also values innovation, having earned more patents than any other equipment manufacturer. OPW is owned by Dover Corporation, a diversified global manufacturer with revenues of over $8 billion, specialising in the fluids, energy, engineered systems and refrigerated food and equipment sectors.

Fibrelite’s new branding will be followed by a new mobile friendly responsive website in the coming months, reflecting their continuing dedication to growth through innovation and strong customer relationships.
