Designed for rapid, high-load access, the Composite Road Plate 44T offers a safe and efficient ramps road solution for crossing excavations. Built to carry up to 44 tons over a 27.6" trench, this trench cover eliminates the need for heavy machinery, enabling fast installation by just two workers. Made from composite plastic with rubber grips, this system is a versatile alternative to traditional road plates or trench boards.
The modular trench plate system comprises lightweight inner sections and optional end pieces that connect securely using heavy-duty locking connectors. These prevent lateral movement and allow precise trench length coverage, avoiding gaps and improving on-site safety. Each unit is 59" x 19.7" and only 88 lbs, allowing for quick deployment with minimum disruption on live roads and worksites.
- Install in minutes – 2-person lift trench boards designed for fast deployment with no lifting gear.
- Superior grip & stability – Rubberized base and flexible lateral pins lock into the trench to prevent shifting.
- Trench cover with traffic calming – Yellow composite top increases visibility and slows approaching vehicles.
- Modular ramps road system – Customizable lengths for trench protection over 27.6" gaps.
- Exceeds anti-slip standards – Textured surface improves traction in wet or oily conditions.
Unlike traditional ground plates or steel road plates, this composite trench cover system eliminates noise, risk, and environmental impact during installation. It's ideal for fiber optic contractors, highway maintenance teams, and utility providers that need a reliable ramps road system that conforms to safety expectations. Whether deployed for hours or weeks, the product withstands high axle loads without movement, flex, or structural fatigue.
HERMEQ stocks a wide range of Ground Protection, Steel Road Plates, Vehicle Access Mats, and Foot Ramps & Trench Covers that meet all required safety specifications and regulations.

Pre-drilled anchor points allow for secure semi-permanent installs, and with no need for cranes or forklifts, operational overhead is drastically reduced. The modularity of the design eliminates poor trench coverage, common with rigid ground plates or trench boards, and supports highly adaptable workspaces.
Each road plate is quick to install with a simple interlocking mechanism, streamlining safety compliance without slowing down workflows. Designed for contractors and municipalities who need reliability and high load performance in compact units, this trench cover solution delivers exceptional performance with reduced health and safety risk.
