GRP stairs, platforms and ladders for safe access
Byggkomposit delivers complete GRP access solutions from Dura Composites — stairs, raised platforms, ladders and slope stairs. Anti-slip, corrosion-resistant and low maintenance in industry, infrastructure and public environments.
All the way up — safe and low maintenance
Access is about getting safely where you need to go — whether it's the service route up to a filter, the platform around a tank, or the stairs between two levels in a process plant. We deliver complete GRP solutions where every part is designed for safety and long service life.
Stairs, platforms, ladders and walkways are manufactured in pultruded glass-reinforced polymer with a grit anti-slip surface and colour-marked edges. The material is electrically insulating and can be supplied with a documented fire rating. Fire rating and chemical resistance should always be verified against technical documentation for the medium and project conditions concerned.
Combine freely with our Dura Grating, Dura Handrail and Dura Tread products for a uniform, corrosion-resistant access structure in a single material.
Anti-slip surface
Secure footing in rain, snow, oil and chemicals.
Low weight
Easier handling and faster installation than steel.
Non-conductive material
Safe for use in rail, switchgear and offshore environments.
Modular design
Stair, platform, handrail and ladder in one system.
Material data for safe design
We provide material data for our d² composite products so that engineers and designers can plan load-bearing structures. Load, span and dimensioning should always be verified against current technical documentation and the project's conditions.
Byggkomposit designs, manufactures and delivers cost-effective, practical and safe GRP access structures based on the proven components d² Dura Profile, Dura Grating and Dura Handrail. They are non-conductive and corrosion-resistant and can be supplied with chemical-resistant properties — an alternative with low self-weight and long service life compared with steel, other metals and timber. Chemical resistance should be verified against the medium concerned.
Our specialist team fabricates projects at Dura Composites' own workshop in East Anglia, certified to ISO 9001 — the international standard for quality management. With the latest technology, including CNC-controlled machines, detailed and custom-designed structures are produced with high precision.
We offer a range of stepover systems that can be configured based on stair configuration, height and obstacle width for your specific project. Both straight solutions and U-shaped 180° turns are available as standard.
Beyond the standard range, we offer a complete custom fabrication service. Among the most requested bespoke GRP structures are driver hop-ups, machine access, slope stairs, vehicle stairs, roof walkways, trackside walkways, mezzanines, handrails, gantries, stepovers and ladders.
ISO 9001-certified manufacturing
Fabrication in East Anglia to an international quality standard.
CNC precision
Computer-controlled machining for detailed and custom-designed structures.
Standard & custom fabricated
Straight and U-shaped stepover systems as well as fully bespoke fabrications.
Four benefits of GRP access
The Dura family combines pultruded GRP technology with well-considered fixings — so that every stair, platform and ladder contributes to a safer, faster and more durable access solution.
Safer
Stairs, platforms and ladders are delivered with an integrated anti-slip surface that provides secure footing in rain, snow, oil and chemicals — with no after-treatment or separate safety mats.
Lower weight
GRP structures are handled manually and installed without welding. This can simplify assembly, reduce lifting equipment and lower transport costs — particularly for retrofit projects and confined worksites. Exact weight values should be verified against technical data.
Corrosion-resistant
GRP does not rust, does not rot and requires no painting or galvanising cycles. A long-term solution for stairs and access in water and wastewater facilities, offshore and process industries.
System solution
Stairs, platforms, handrails, ladders and walkways are built in the same Dura family, giving uniform performance, compatible fixings and a shared lifecycle profile for the entire access structure.
Our access solutions
Four coherent product areas for stairs, platforms, ladders and slope stairs — all in the same Dura family.
GRP stairs and stair treads
Freestanding d² Stair Tread, Dura Tread Solid Plate and tread covers for retrofit — anti-slip and colour-marked stair treads for new build and upgrading existing stairs.
GRP Treads and Anti-Slip ProductsPlatforms and landings
Service decks, work platforms and stair landings in pultruded GRP — lightweight to build modularly and compatible with Dura Grating, Dura Handrail and Dura Tread.
GRP PlatformsDura Safety Ladders
GRP ladders and access ladders with anti-slip rungs and integrated safety hoops — safe, non-conductive and corrosion-resistant for any climbing height.
GRP LaddersStairs on sloping terrain
GRP stairs for slopes, embankments and terraced worksites — modular construction, easy handling and long service life even in exposed outdoor environments.
See stair treadsAccess systems with low maintenance requirement
GRP stairs and platforms have low self-weight in relation to strength. They are handled manually, installed without welding, and retain their anti-slip surface for decades — with no painting or surface treatment. Load-bearing capacity should be verified against technical documentation for the project concerned.
Anti-slip surface as standard
All Dura stair treads, platform panels and ladder rungs are delivered with an integrated grit anti-slip surface and clear colour marking — secure footing and visual identification with no after-treatment.
Stair, platform, handrail and ladder — in the same material
The Dura family makes it possible to build the entire access structure in one material. Uniform performance, compatible fixings and a shared lifecycle — simpler design, faster installation and lower maintenance.
