Due to the nature of what is underground, the covers need to be easy access for operators who regularly check and monitor the levels. The chambers are in a remote location where access to the site is difficult so ease of access and safety are critical.
GENEMAT’s composite access covers offer easy access for operators who regularly need to access the chambers that house natural rain water.
Genemat’s access covers are lightweight, durable and very strong. Every Genemat cover is manufactured using high technology resin transfer moulded production methods to create a highly engineered, monolithic composite product.

Lightweight for easy and safe manual removal
Load ratings from A15 to F900 (BS EN 124)
