ABOUT US Since its inception in 1977, M.M. has been operating in the glass fibre reinforced polymers (FRP) industry, producing high quality gratings and structures (handrail systems, walkways, stairways, ladders, fences, gates, etc.). The intrinsic properties of FRP allow to create light, resistant and easy to install structures that do not require maintenance and are characterised by great versatility of use. The company offers customized solutions and additional services such as technical design, structural calculation for composite materials, chemical and mechanical resistance tests, any type...

walkways Walking surfaces available also in micro mesh Handrail fixing Toe plate M.M. produces walkways compliant with EN ISO 14122 standards, utilizing FRP pultruded profiles and gratings. These walkways are designed for various applications, such as equipment service gangways, overpasses, or pipe-crossing walkways. The primary structure incorporates C and I FRP profiles securely connected with secondary beams of the same type. Handrail systems are also constructed by assembling the FRP profiles. The walking surface is composed of FRP gratings, affixed to the main structure using clamps, bolts,...

STRUCTURES CE marked structural profiles can be considered in the design of civil constructions (for example pedestrian and/or cycle bridges) in compliance with current technical design standards. Stairs, walkways, and work platforms are built with FRP pultruded profiles, FRP gratings and stainless-steel accessories in accordance with EN ISO 14122 (Permanent means of access to machinery) within the scope of Regulation EU 2023/1230 relating to machinery. They are designed by the M.M. Technical Department to best meet the needs of each customer.They are completely pre-assembled in the factory and...

COMPLEX STRUCTURES TECHNICAL AND ENGINEERING SERVICES M.M. Technical Department takes care of customers’ requests also through inspections, identifies the best solution, taking into account the specific customer needs, and paying special attention to compliance with safety standards. For the analysis and design of the structures we use the most advanced finite element modelling software (FEM). In addition, we are able to provide both 2D graphic drawings and 3D graphic renderings and models through appropriate drawing software. M.M. has implemented a BIM sharing platform with clients for 3D models,...

COMPLEX STRUCTURES THE BENEFITS OF FRP STRUCTURES LIGHTWEIGHT A lower load on the substructures means that they can be installed on existing structures without requiring their modifications. The reduced weight to handle makes moving and installation easy. They ensure a reduction in operating costs due to their resistance to chemical and atmospheric agents. Always available and safe for operators. The non-slip walking surfaces, the certified handrail systems, the scrupulous design with attention to ergonomic principles, make them very safe for the operators. They do not require earthing or protection...

COMPLEX STRUCTURES PEDESTRIAN AND CYCLING BRIDGES A composite bridge represents a robust, lightweight, and corrosionresistant construction, offering a cost-effective alternative to traditional bridge materials like concrete, steel, or timber. FRP emerges as the ideal selection for challenging environments, including those near seawater or freshwater, in natural settings with variable weather conditions, and on footbridges requiring salting. FULL FRP BRIDGE Full FRP bridges are characterized by a substructure comprising the bridge deck and railings, all constructed from FRP material. Steel is...

COMPLEX STRUCTURES SERVICE STRUCTURES FOR TANKS FRP, PP (Polypropylene), or metal tanks can be equipped with custommade access points to their top or intermediate levels, including stairs or ladders, as well as safety features like parapets, which safeguard maintenance workers from the risk of falling. All these structures adhere to the requirements of the EN 14122 standard and are designed according to the project loads specified by the customer. Specific metal brackets are designed to secure FRP systems, allowing for the accommodation of differential thermal elongations if necessary. These...

COMPLEX STRUCTURES COVER SYstems M.M.’s FRP products provide a robust and corrosion-resistant solution for challenging environments with process waters, hydrogen sulfide, and other aggressive gases. Our FRP covers, lighter than their steel counterparts, are easily cut and shaped, simplifying both installation and on-site adjustments. The covers come equipped with lifting devices, offering a significant advantage for frequent removal. Additionally, when feasible, I and C FRP beam substructures are supplied to support the covers. SHELTERS M.M.’s CE-marked FRP structural profiles, expertly sized...

COMPLEX STRUCTURES REMOVABLE STRUCTURES M.M.’s CE-marked FRP structural profiles are suitable for constructing temporary and removable structures, such as seaside gazebos that need removal during the winter season. Our lightweight structures are easy and fast to assemble and dismantle, demonstrating resilience against weathering and marine conditions. They are low-maintenance and costeffective, making FRP structures the optimal solution for such applications. TERRACE SUBSTRUCTURES M.M.’s CE-marked FRP structural profiles find application in civil engineering for constructing load-bearing structures,...
