Key Advantages
Light Weight The low mass saves handling, transport and erection costs during installation: • Low handling costs: No extra equipment needed to load or offload the poles • Low transport costs: Save on transport costs due to the poles' low weight and the higher stacking height on road freight • Low installation costs: No extra equipment is needed to erect the poles
Longevity Over time, BEKA Schréder fibreglass poles will outlast wood, concrete, steel and aluminium under similar climatic conditions.
Versatility A wide range of spigots, floodlight mountings, baseplates and decorative arrangements ensure a product for almost every application.
Non-Conductive Perfect electrical insulation prevents accidental electrocution by faulty wiring.
Low Inertia A reduction in personal injury and damage to vehicles in road accidents.
Vandal Resistant High impact strength of polyester gel coat and glass filament wound structure and material offering no scrap value, therefore very low risk of theft.
High Bending Strength Engineered to withstand a wind pressure of 500 Pa inclusive of 0.20m 2 luminaire area with less than a 5% deflection of the mounting height. This relates to a wind speed of 103.9km/h. Any higher wind speeds must be calculated separately.
Non-Corrosive No above- or below-ground corrosion in salt climates or acid soil.
Corrosion of steel pole
Sustainable The manufacturing process for glass fibre poles is much kinder to the environment than metal or concrete products.
Maintenance-Free No corrosion or decay ensures that the surface coat of the pole will not require maintenance.
