Graepel trench bridges ensure safety underfoot—especially on construction sites where temporary trenches and pits need to be safely bridged. They reliably mitigate hazards and allow for safe crossing even while construction work is in progress.
The aluminum construction is designed for the rigors of everyday construction site use. Thanks to their comparatively low weight, the bridges are easy to set up, reposition, and handle. The bridges span shafts and trenches up to a width of 3,800 mm (for bridge lengths of 4,000 mm).
Graepel trench bridges come standard with the Graepel-ECO 8-8 tread pattern, which ensures high slip resistance and effective drainage.
