The Structural Science Composite Company [SSC] supply a unique range of very light and very strong composite covers with composite frames that meet all the requirements for installation in the road,industrial and pedestrian areas, yet they are easy to move. 

The properties of the composite material enable many secondary problems associated with access covering to be solved and therefore they are the preferred solution in specialized positions by Structural Engineers, Owners, Operators and Health & Safety regulators. 

When the whole life cost is analyzed, an SSC composite cover is the perfect commercial solution.
