First sales of GripFAST covers & frames

30th May 2008

The new GripFAST range of manhole covers specifically designed to give extra antiskid resistance start to sell in large quantities.

The range was launched with the popular sizes of 600x600mm opening in both 100mm and 150mm depths and BSEN 124 Class D400 loading and a twin carriageway in the opening size of 1220x685 by 150mm deep BSEN 124 Class E600. More sizes will be added soon.

Islington were the first London borough to buy the product from us and Sussex CC soon followed. We expect the range to sell very well and become the standard product in road 'black spots'.

The covers themselves incorporate a fully bonded aggregate insert which raises the grip coefficient of the top surface to that of the road material. This means that there is no longer a difference in the skid resistance between the road and the manhole covers themselves. Any vehicle traveling across the cover experiences no change of coefficient, even in the wet.

Why not specify, or use one of our range Today? Anti-skid technology is helping to make all our roads safer for everyone.
