FIBREGLASS STAIR TOWERS

LOWER MAINTENANCE COSTS WITH A COMPLETE FIBREGLASS STAIR TOWER

With a fibreglass stair tower, you get easy and safe access to the building and, at the same time, you can save time and money on maintenance.

Our stairway tower is designed completely in fibreglass, a corrosion-free and weather-resistant material with a long lifetime. For you, this means that you can avoid unexpected costs and complications with the maintenance of the stair tower.

What are stairway access towers?

Your next stair tower must ensure that you have a stable working platform and safe access for maintenance workers, construction workers or other employees. Stair towers are used as access routes to different platform heights.

Our stairway access towers consist of three elements.

  • The internal structure or frame is the load-bearing part and consists of columns which are normally made of square tubes. The transverse bracing is made of U and I beams. This frame ensures a stable platform.
  • The stairs with two stringers in U profiles and different types of steps. Depending on the climb, the stairs can be designed with repos. Depending on your needs, you can choose different types of slip resistance for the stairs. The stair tower width and height can be adjusted to the platform height as well.
  • Railing system which provides a safe and easy access. Our railing system comply with safety standards.

We will help you every step of the way, from the design and calculation of your next stair tower to machining and on-site supervision. Speak to one of our fibreglass experts and we will give you a non-binding quote for what your next stair tower might look like.

Advantages: Why use a fibreglass stair tower?

The stair towers can be supplied as flat pack, saving you time for installation on site. The light weight of the fibreglass profiles also makes them easy to handle regardless of platform height. And since fibreglass can be processed as easily as wood, the final adjustments to the stair tower can also be made on site. This means our stair towers in fibreglass are well-suited for tight spaces or hard-to-reach places.

Our profiles have a wide range of sought-after international certifications and standards, which makes it easy for you to use them in the EU, without wasting time on one-off approvals. Furthermore, the fibreglass profiles are also CE-marked, which is your guarantee of consistently high quality every time you make a purchase from us.

Explore our wide range of advantages with stair towers in fibreglass:

  • Strong as steel, but with the possibility of 50% lighter weight.
  • Resistant to a whole range of aggressive chemicals and liquids.
  • Electrically insulating and minimise the complexity of grounding.
  • Easy to work with – almost like wood.
  • Minimal maintenance and low costs relating to this.

Where can you use fibreglass stair towers?

Indoor or outdoor stair tower? Since fibreglass is a corrosion-free and weather-resistant material that is also resistant to a number of aggressive chemicals and liquids, our stair towers are well suited for both. Furthermore, our stair towers can also be adjusted to your needs with respect to platform height.
Our customers typically install their stair tower within a wide range of industries:

  • Chemical industry
  • Cooling towers
  • Wastewater and chemical plants
  • Swimming pools
  • Rail industry
  • Offshore
  • Marine and coast

Combining advantages

CE MARKING

Our products are CE certified according to the EN13706 1-3 standard. This certification is your guarantee of consistently high quality every time you buy from us and use our products. Read more

LOW WEIGHT

Fiberglass enables lightweight and robust constructions, making installation faster. Although the material is comparable to steel, the specific weight of Fiberglass is only a quarter of steel. Read more

STRENGTH & STIFFNESS

Fiberglass is an exceptionally strong material, rivaling steel, aluminum, and wood. Composite profiles offer similar weight to aluminum, while being just 20% the weight of concrete and 40% of steel, making them highly efficient. Read more

CORROSION-FREE

Composite materials are generally very durable, with only a few exceptions. They resist a variety of aggressive liquids and environments, resulting in long lifespan and minimal need for maintenance. Read more

WEATHER RESISTANT

Fiberglass is UV-resistant and can withstand temperatures between -40 and +80 degrees Celsius without deterioration of its properties. Additionally, it tolerates seawater and other atmospheric influences. Read more

ELECTRICAL INSULATION

Fiberglass profiles are electrically insulating. They are suitable for use in connection with all electrical constructions, such as along railway tracks, power plant installations, etc., as they are suitable for both low and medium voltage. Read more

EASY TO WORK WITH

The processing of fiberglass profiles is significantly easier than for metals such as steel, and just as efficient as for wood. This makes it easy to handle solutions with our profiles on site. Read more

THERMALLY INSULATING

Fiberline's fiberglass profiles have a significantly higher thermal insulating capacity compared to steel and aluminum. Read more

SUSTAINABLE

Fiberline's products are manufactured energy-efficiently through pultrusion. The low weight relative to strength and long lifespan make them a cost- and energy-efficient alternative. Read more
