GRP Cable Troughs

Captrad’s GRP Cable Troughs are produced bespoke to customer specification. The GRP Moulded Trough is reinforced with additional structural profiles, this design and weight savings offer massive advantages over traditional concrete troughs.

GRP Troughs can offer in the region of 80-90% in weight-saving, thus in return, this allows more troughs to be transported and allows a quicker installation making the overall cost of the product far more beneficial. These traits of GRP troughs also have less of an impact on the environment in relation to transportation and personnel.

GRP is a durable and lightweight material that offers excellent resistance to corrosion and environmental factors, making it an ideal choice for cable management systems. Our GRP cable troughs are designed to provide a secure and organized solution for the installation and support of cables across various environments, including industrial, commercial, and even harsh outdoor conditions.

Here are some key features and benefits of our GRP cable trough:

1. Material strength and longevity: GRP is known for its exceptional strength-to-weight ratio, ensuring that our cable troughs can withstand heavy loads while maintaining structural integrity. This inherent strength also contributes to their longevity, making them a cost-effective investment.

2. Corrosion resistance: Unlike traditional metal cable troughs, our GRP solution is inherently resistant to corrosion caused by moisture, chemicals, and extreme temperatures. This characteristic ensures a prolonged service life and minimizes maintenance requirements.

3. UV resistance: Our GRP cable troughs are formulated with UV inhibitors, providing excellent resistance against harmful ultraviolet rays. This feature allows our cable troughs to maintain their physical properties and colour stability over extended periods, even when exposed to intense sunlight.

4. Fire resistance: Safety is of utmost importance when it comes to cable management. Our GRP cable troughs meet the required fire performance standards, offering enhanced fire resistance compared to other materials. This specification ensures the protection of cables and reduces the risk of fire propagation in critical environments.

5. Easy installation and adaptability: Our GRP cable troughs are designed for ease of installation, with flexible configurations to accommodate various cable sizes and layouts. The lightweight nature of the material simplifies handling, reducing installation time and costs.

6. Low maintenance: GRP cable troughs require minimal maintenance due to their resistance to corrosion. Regular inspections and routine cleaning are typically sufficient to ensure optimal performance.

We understand that each project has unique requirements, and our team of experienced professionals is available to provide technical support and guidance to ensure the success of your cable management system. We pride ourselves in delivering high-quality products that meet industry standards while addressing customer needs.

Captrad are able to produce a range of Moulded GRP troughs in various sizes to cater for any project. We also offer Bends, Risers and T Junctions to aid with the schematics of the cables, as we can mould bespoke solutions we can virtually cater for any project.

With the use of GRP Structural shapes, we can divide the troughs if necessary to create compartments for various uses.
