The Trenchlite® GRP Cable Trough system, innovated by Fibex provides a lightweight and cost-effective solution to pre-cast concrete troughs.
Lightweight
The lightweight properties of Fibex’s Trenchlite® GRP Cable Trough system allow for overall cost savings when it comes to installation. For example, Fibex 600mm x 600mm GRP Trenchlite Troughs only weigh around 31KG in comparison to the typical 810KG weight of pre-cast concrete troughs. Fibex’s GRP Cable Troughs is handled and installed by a minimum of two labourers, as a result of this, there is no need for machinery.
As well as this, the lightweight characteristic of our GRP Cable Troughs/Trenches means transportation costs are reduced by up to 75%. Saving you on time, costs, and resources.
We are continually developing new improved and innovative products in our range using open and closed moulding processes and currently are patent pending for upcoming products.
