Client: COMPANY WORKING IN THE FIELD OF ROAD CONSTRUCTION, AS WELL AS PROVIDER OF WATER FACILITIES AND SEWERAGE SYSTEMS
Location: TREPUZZI (LE) - ITALY
Application sector: INSTALLATION OF INSPECTION COVERS FOR THE SEWERAGE SYSTEM
Objectives
The client needed 60 manhole covers to be installed as inspection covers of a new segment of the sewerage system on a private plot of land in open country, in an isolated place where traditional iron-cast manhole covers had often been subject to theft. The client was therefore looking for an alternative solution, with the same technical and functional features as iron-cast manhole covers, but not attractive for thieves.
Solution
M.M. delivered 60 round manhole covers, diameter 600mm, class D400 according to EN 124:2015 (suitable for carriageways, hard shoulders and parking areas for all types of road vehicles), including inspection wells and frames. The client needed a product with the same functional features as iron-cast covers, that should add value to the system, not only thanks to theft prevention, resulting in time and money saving (no substitution), but also in relation to safety and duration. After this first experience with composite manhole covers by M.M., the client says that he is satisfied and ready to purchase the product again for the installation in similar contexts.
