The MGF GRiPSHORE™ range enables safe working through modular lightweight shoring equipment that can be transported easily, installed manually and has improved durability and strength above traditional, heavier aluminium support systems.
Designed, developed and patent protected by MGF in response to customers safety needs, the product range provides a versatile hire solution for quickly installed, flexible shoring in excavations up to 2000mm deep and 1450mm wide. The product range include
– GRP Trench Sheets and Walers
– GRP Vertishore
– GRP Trench Box
– GRP Modular Box
The range can be supplied with safe access solutions such as MGF WALKSAFE and MGF CROSSINGSAFE, lightweight temporary crossing plates used to form pedestrian and vehicle access.
Manufactured from pultruded glass reinforced plastic (GRP), it is a lightweight shoring option that makes for easy manual handling without the need for an excavator. The products modular form allows it to be easily transported in commercial vehicles with a small payload capacity, this combined with its durable, electrically non conductive and fire retardant material are key benefits for reactive utilities works.
