LIGHTWEIGHT PLATFORMS

Lightweight platforms, walkways, ramps, ladders, handrails and work stations designed, built and installed to your exact requirements and to British Standards (BS5359) by our own skilled craftsmen.  A complete CAD  design and build service is available.

This lightweight platform is one of a series of seven built and installed at a manufacturing plant in Grimsby. The platforms were all built in our workshop, taken apart and shipped to site where they were installed by our own craftsmen.Each platform was different and individually made. We pride ourselves on our bespoke service.

The set of pictures below show a recent installation of an access platform.  The first thing we do is a complete site survey and ascertain exactly where the platform will be sited and also to understand the customers requirements.  A CAD drawing was then produced for the customers records and also for our workshop fabrication team.  The platform was then built complete in our workshop to make sure everything was the right size and it was what the customer required.  Finally the platform was dismantled, transported to site and erected into its final position.  We offer a complete bespoke design and build service for all our customers.  Please ask for further details.

Platform is built and ready for dispatch

This 13 metre long x 2 metres wide lightweight ramp is nearing completion in our workshop.

It will be taken apart in sections and shipped to site. The ramp was built for Balfour Beatty. Anglia Composites are preferred suppliers to Balfour Beatty.

This picture shows a small section of a large project for Malvern District Council.

The Malvern Theatres building needed badly corroded wooden roof walkways replaced. Anglia Composites designed and installed the walkways entirely on site. This shows our skill and dexterity when it comes to fibreglass structures.  The project took just 3 weeks from start to finish.

The lightweight walkways are completely corrosion resistant and will give many years of maintenance free life.

This is one of two lightweight platforms built for Stagecoach Metrolink in Manchester.

Anglia Composites supplied gratings, handrails, ladders, stairs and safety cages.

The platform incorporates an enclosed safety cage at the top of the stairs. The lightweight walkways are completely corrosion resistant and will give many years of maintenance free life.

The customer required this platform urgently. When the order was received the platform was built and delivered to site within a week. The platform has handrails all around and will be used for inspection.

The platform is shown in our workshop having a final inspection before delivery by our own transport.

This platform, built from our own lightweight fibreglass pultruded profiles, is completely mobile.  It has heavy-duty lockable wheels making it easy to push around.

Every heavy-duty wheel has a locking mechanism making it very safe and stable.

The platform is shown in our workshop having a final inspection before delivery by our own transport. The platform will be used in an electrically sensitive location. Our lightweight fibreglass  platforms are non-conductive making them ideal for use in this type of area.

We can manufacture any size and shape lightweight platforms with fibreglass handrails. There is a vast range of wheels available for many different types of applications. Please ask for details.

This platform was built and installed at Warwick University.

The University needed access to newly installed air conditioning equipment.

As you can see it had to span an entrance without impeding on the footway but also be strong enough to allow workers to deal with any maintenance with the A C unit.

The platform was installed in just 3 days with minimum fuss for the University staff.

Mr. Trevor Phazey, University Refrigeration Engineer, said "  I would like to take this opportunity to thank you and your staff for a job well done."

The lightweight platform is completely corrosion resistant and will give many years of maintenance free life.

This 9 metre 3 tier stairway has just been installed by our own skilled craftsmen at the Caterpillar machine plant in Peterlee.

The stairway leads to a roof walkway which was also installed by Anglia Composites and is more than 150 metres long.

The entire project took less than 6 weeks from start to completion and saved the owners 30% in costs.

The stairway and roof walkway are shown in greater detail here.
