FRP Industrial Access Solutions

EX-Series® FRP INDUSTRIAL ACCESS STRUCTURES

EX-Series® FRP solutions are engineered to outperform traditional materials in New Zealand’s most demanding industrial environments. Designed for fixed platforms, staircases, stepovers, and customised access structures, they offer superior strength, safety, and long-term performance. Successfully installed across the Mining, Rail & Power Infrastructure and Oil & Gas industries, FRP is electrically non-conductive, RF transparent, and highly resistant to corrosion. Unlike metal alternatives, these structures do not require additional bonding and earthing, delivering significant savings in both time and installation costs. 

WHY FRP IS THE OPTIMAL CHOICE

FRP is corrosion resistant, radio frequency (RF) transparent and non-conductive. Corrosion resistance maintains structural longevity and integrity in harsh environments, with reduced maintenance and replacements. RF transparency provides uninterrupted communication, supports wireless systems and enables operation of RF dependent equipment. The non-conductive nature of FRP eliminates the need for earthing and bonding, reducing labour and material costs.  

FIXED STAIRCASES

An FRP solution featuring a combination of ArchitEX™ structural profiles, EX-Series® grating and stair treads, and RailEX® handrails. Built to withstand corrosive indoor and outdoor environments.

FIXED ACCESS PLATFORMS

These can be customised to the span required for its purpose. Being naturally non-conductive, FRP is a cost-effective and long-lasting solution for electrically sensitive environments. This eliminates the need for earthing and bonding requirements, allowing for timely completion.

FIXED STEPOVERS

All GratEX® and MoultrEX® premium and standard Stair Tread options are moulded with the solid leading-edge nosing as joint single stage component. This increases the rigor and sturdiness of the entire leading edge ensuring dependable performance in high traffic situations. All the treads with abrasive leading-edge nosings are manufactured to conform to AS 1657 – 2018.

STRUCTURAL STAIR SYSTEMS

Stair systems can be trial assembled in the Treadwell factory, before being partly dismantled and packed into modules. This allows for minimal downtime for the site, and quick installation.

CUSTOMISED STRUCTURES

Treadwell’s design and engineering team is able to design structures that are cyclone rated. Weight loading concerns on sensitive ground can also be addressed with FRP as FRP is lightweight with a high strength to weight ratio, compared to traditional materials.

RAIL PLATFORMS

Treadwell’s TreadSLAB® FRP panels are constructed with an anti-slip surface and corrosion resistant properties. This maintains optimal user safety. Panels can also be customised according to load requirements.

EX-Series® FRP Solutions are trusted by leading companies and have been successfully installed in the Mining & Mineral, Rail & Transport and Oil & Gas Sectors. Treadwell offers standard and customised FRP access solutions, backed by decades of industry experience. Contact Treadwell for a solution that lasts.
