Durable, Fiber Reinforced Polymer Bridges
If you want a bridge that can withstand the elements, requires minimal maintenance, and has a long lifespan – fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) is the ideal solution! We use FRP as the selected material for our ATV and snowmobile bridges because of its advantages.
- Extremely lightweight (a quarter of steel’s weight)
- A lifespan of 100+ years
- No heavy equipment or skilled labor needed for assembly
- Reduces onsite construction time significantly
- Lowers overall construction costs
