Fiberline profiles and planks can be used for cladding existing or newly built bridges. Claddings with composite materials ensure a weather-resistant shield that protects the underlying structure from wind and weather influences. Primarily we recommend using the MD and HD plank as bridge cladding. The fibreglass planks can be cut to length but also be adjusted in width if required by the project. Besides, all planks are provided with a varnish which enables them to withstand high levels of UV radiation.
Illustration
Our fibreglass planks have been used for cladding steel and concrete bridges. The FRP cladding is there to protect the bridge structure from weather influences but also for architectural reasons. The planks can be painted in any RAL colure.

Fiberline Medium Duty Plank
Fiberline Medium Duty Plank is designed with an excellent price-performance ratio. The plank weighs only 6.58 kg/m, making it easy to handle on-site. Like other products from Fiberline, plank MD is made of GFRP. This material has noteworthy properties such as a long, proven service life as well as high corrosion resistance and strength. Fiberline plank MD is also available with anti-skid surface
Fiberline Heavy Duty Plank
The strong Fiberline Heavy Duty Plank is suitable for applications were load requirements are 5 kN/m2 and point loads are 10 kN, e.g. decks for bike paths and pedestrian bridges. Plank HD is corrosion-free and has a long service life, even under demanding and corrosive conditions, e.g. swimming pools, industry and cooling towers settings as well as offshore. Other advantages include great strength, low weight and electrical insulation. Plank HD is also available with anti-skid surface.
Fiberline Ultra Duty Plank
The Ultra Duty Plank is our strongest bridge decking, designed to meet the most stringent load requirements for pedestrian and cycle bridges. The UD plank reduces the weight of the structure and is easy to work with at the installation site. It is also corrosion-resistant against a range of chemicals and salt water. Asphalt or PPMA/Epoxy strewn with sand or gravel can be used as a wearing surface.
