In 2024, we successfully supplied a fully assembled FRP staircase to a sewage treatment plant (STP) in Kota Kinabalu via sea freight. Constructed using high-strength FRP pultruded profiles and molded grating, this custom-built solution provides long-term durability, corrosion resistance, and ease of installation—making it ideal for harsh wastewater environments.
Supplying FRP Caged Ladders to Edra Melaka Power Plant: Safe & Durable Access Solutions
18 Mar 2025
-
Project Location: Edra Melaka Power Plant, Alor Gajah, Melaka -
Number of Units: 19 units of FRP caged ladders (6m height each)
-
Project Duration: 3 weeks
-
Installation Team: 10 workers onsite
-
Key Challenge: Replacement of FRP ladders affected by clam attachment byssal threads
-
Key Benefit: Corrosion-resistant, long-lasting, and safe access solution for the power plant
In 2024, we were entrusted with supplying and installing 19 units of 6-meter FRP caged ladders at Edra Melaka Power Plant (EMPP) in Alor Gajah, Melaka. These ladders replaced the existing FRP ladders, which had become compromised due to clam attachment byssal threads. Our team of 10 skilled workers completed the installation within three weeks, ensuring a smooth transition while also using the opportunity to enhance their expertise. This project highlights the advantages of FRP solutions in power plant infrastructure, offering superior corrosion resistance, safety, and longevity. Ensuring worker safety and long-term durability in industrial facilities is crucial, especially in environments exposed to harsh conditions like seawater.
Why FRP Caged Ladders for Power Plants?
-
Corrosion Resistance: Withstands constant exposure to seawater and harsh environments
-
Lightweight Yet Strong: Easier to install, yet highly durable and structurally stable
-
Non-Conductive & Safe: Essential for industrial settings like power plants
-
Low Maintenance: No risk of rusting, unlike metal alternatives
Challenges & Execution of the Installation
Overcoming the Existing Ladder Issues
-
