Industrial Solutions

In a working plant, a corroded walkway or handrail is a safety problem and a shutdown waiting to happen. Our FRP grating, profiles and handrail systems are made for industrial sites, including hazardous environments. They resist chemicals, do not conduct electricity and keep their strength without repainting or galvanising.

Walkways and Platforms for Plant Access

FRP walkways are used every day for elevated access to tank valves and switchgear, bund access and pipe crossovers. Each one is designed to fit the plant, so it goes in first time, and the lightweight sections are simple to move into position. That saves installation time and production downtime.

MaxiGRATE FRP grating provides the non-slip surface for walkways, platforms and ramps. For chemical plants, read FRP grating in the chemical industry.

Handrails, Safety Gates and Ladders

MaxiRAIL handrails combine a low installed cost with low maintenance and long life. Over the life of the plant, the cost is well below steel and aluminium alternatives.

MaxiRAIL self-closing safety gates are designed individually for each application while still meeting Australian Standards. They can be fabricated in a wide range of styles, from basic industrial arrangements to more complex designs.

MaxiLADDER FRP ladders suit areas prone to corrosion, electrical conductivity and slippery surfaces. Configurations include fall arrest cages, side access, retractable arms and extension ladders.

Fire Performance

The Maxi range carries a flame-spread index of 25 or less when tested to the ASTM E-84 standard, and meets the ASTM D-635 extinguishing requirements. FRP cable ladders are manufactured to meet ASTM E-84 Class 1 flame rating.

Cable Ladders for Plants and Manufacturing

FRP cable ladders are used in chemical plants, power plants, refineries and large-scale manufacturing, where maintenance opportunities are limited and downtime is costly. They give the load capacity of steel systems and will not rust, rot, warp or become permanently deflected under load.

We design, fabricate and can supply a complete system, sized for the job and not over-engineered.
