Composite road plates: 'stronger, but many times lighter'

FiberCore Europe, introduces a new product: composite roadway slabs. With an innovative design and advanced technology, these driving slabs promise to set a new standard in safety, durability and efficiency.

FRP, or Fiber Reinforced Plastic, is an ultra-light, yet strong composite material and offers a versatile solution to the traditional use of heavy steel plates on construction sites. FRP Roadway Plates perform exceptionally on a variety of terrains ranging from soft ground to hard surfaces.

'We are excited about the launch of our FRP Driving Plates and are confident that they will revolutionize temporary accessibility,' said Matthijs Raak, Managing Director of FiberCore Europe. 'This product represents our commitment to innovation and sustainability, and we are confident it will become the standard for roadway slabs worldwide.'

Advantages of composite driving slabs:

  • Strength and Durability: Despite their light weight, FRP road plates are surprisingly strong and durable. They can withstand extreme loads and remain intact under various weather conditions.
  • Safety: A non-slip wear layer is integrated into the roadway slabs. This not only reduces the danger of slips and falls on the construction site, but also ensures that the road plates last longer without compromising on safety. And are thus also ideally suited for a temporary bicycle path or pedestrian path.
  • Environmental Friendliness: As an eco-friendly alternative to traditional steel roadway slabs, our FRP Roadway Slabs contribute to sustainable construction. Made in part from recycled materials, they are also recyclable and reduce the carbon footprint of construction projects, resulting in a cleaner and greener future.
  • Easy Transportation and Installation: With their lightweight design, you can carry 4 times as many square meters of driving slabs on a truck, saving time and costs.
  • Not prone to theft and can be fitted with RFID chip for easy management.
  • FRP roadways are non-conductive, which offers advantages in energy transition.
