Plastic trench covers for construction sites
These robust trench covers made of high-strength plastic are specifically designed for use in road and civil engineering, municipal works, and construction sites. With a width of 500 mm, a length of 1,500 mm, and a load capacity of up to 44 t, they allow for the safe crossing of trenches, cable ducts, or excavations – even by heavy trucks – maximum single wheel load: 6 t at a trench width of 700 mm (maximum!).
Typical applications of trench crossing plates
Construction sites in road, civil engineering and pipeline construction
Municipal maintenance and emergency response
Temporary traffic routes, construction site access roads and logistics areas
Covering of trenches, cable ducts, manhole openings
Use when moving machines or vehicles on uneven terrain
Trench bridge / crossing plate for trenches, suitable for trucks, among others, expandable
The plastic trench crossing plate is slip-resistant, weatherproof, and can be combined to create longer crossings thanks to integrated connection points. Ideal for temporary traffic management, safe construction site logistics, and municipal maintenance work.
The non-slip surface ensures safe use. The two end pieces can be extended to any desired length using center pieces.
A pedestrian bridge is also available for purchase .
