Ports adopt access covers
02 March 2017
Container Terminal DCT Gdańsk and Port of Immingham are the latest to adopt Fibrelite’s heavy-duty composite access covers.

Traditionally the sole domain of concrete and metal, increasing numbers of ports are going composite since Fibrelite’s development of 90 tonne (F900) load rated lightweight covers. An inherent resistance to corrosion from saltwater and fuel while safely manually removable at high load ratings make composites an attractive solution for portside applications.
Fibrelite expects to see more and more ports choose composites as they look for solutions to increase safety and efficiency.
