GTR Rail Depot – Cambridge

GTR Rail Depot – Cambridge

We are more than happy to supply materials for customers to install themselves and much of what we do is just that.  We can cut things to size, do partial fabrications or simply send out the components.  However, as specialists, we know there are some skills and techniques you need to know when working with GRP and occasionally, our clients request our support when installing it themselves.

We were recently asked to assist with just such an installation.  After supplying the teams at the GTR Rail Depot in Cambridge with GRP Modular Handrail, GRP Open Mesh Grating, GRP Troughing Lids and GRP Solid Top Panels, we were also asked to accompany the client’s team on-site to help drive home their phased handover deadlines without compromising on the quality of the work. Once the project was complete, rail engineers enjoy a trip-free, slip-resistant environment that met all Network Rail’s specifications to help keep them safe in their workplace for decades to come.

If you are considering arranging your own installation of our products, we are more than happy to offer advice on how best to proceed or we can supply a site consultant to be on hand throughout to support and advise the team in place. We have developed our own CSCS Qualification to ensure our own employees are up to scratch and believe it is essential to offer training to newcomers to the industry – whether they work for us or for other contractors.  Our courses are unique within the UK and can be held at your site or at our Suffolk headquarters.
