The IMS GRP Bridging Ladder range provides a durable and non-conductive solution for crossing over pipework, cable runs, and machinery in industrial and utility environments. Designed to deliver strength, safety, and corrosion resistance, these ladder bridges ensure reliable access in areas where traditional metal structures may not perform effectively.

Each unit is engineered from Glass-Reinforced Polymer (GRP) to provide a lightweight yet rigid framework that resists corrosion, UV exposure, and electrical conductivity. The result is a long-lasting access solution that enhances site safety and efficiency without increasing maintenance demands.

Product Advantages

  • Strong yet lightweight: GRP structure provides high load capacity without the weight of steel.
  • Corrosion and chemical resistance: Suitable for use in wastewater plants, coastal sites, and process facilities.
  • Non-conductive design: Safe for installation near electrical systems and equipment.
  • Slip-resistant surface: Grit-coated treads and platforms reduce slip risk in wet or oily conditions
  • Resistant to environmental degradation, reducing long-term maintenance costs.
  • Custom-engineered options: Available in standard or project-specific configurations to meet clearance and height requirements.

Common Applications

  • GRP bridging ladders are used wherever safe elevated access is required, including:
  • Crossing pipelines and conveyors
  • Navigating service trenches and ducts
  • Accessing tanks, machinery, or restricted platforms
  • Utility maintenance areas and process plants
  • Energy and marine infrastructure sites

IMS GRP Bridging Ladders are engineered for industrial reliability — combining robust construction with non-slip, corrosion-resistant performance. They deliver a practical, maintenance-free access solution for sites where safety and longevity are paramount.
