Composite Road Plates: The Alternative To Steel Road Plates

When digging trenches across a roadway as part of roadworks, utility installations, or construction projects, steel plates are the most frequent solution for covering them up. But they require specialist lifting equipment and are difficult to transport and store. Our alternative solution is the composite road plate system.

Why use composite road plates?

The composite road plate system from Oxford Plastics is the new approach to solving this problem. Only two people are required to deploy it, and you can store everything you need to cover trenches over typical roads on a single pallet.

No fixings are required on the inner pieces as they use a built-in pin system to lock them into place. That means no messy cold tarmac, awkward fixings, or wasted time!

Each inner section comes complete with the pins (3 blocks and 14 pins) so that you can deploy them straight away.

Some other advantages of the composite road plate system are:

• Anti-slip surface
• Very little noise compared to clanging steel plates
• Increased safety during deployment due to much lower weight.
