Europe’s Largest Access Fleet TPA’s commitment to the research and development of its products has resulted in the best portable roadway systems on the market today. TPA has a stockholding of traditional aluminium panels which exceeds 80km, making TPA Europe’s largest supplier of portable roadways. TPA’s team of experienced Field Sales Engineers know only too well that ground conditions as well as the weather are subject to change and for this reason we strongly encourage a site survey prior to your installation. This enables us to visit the site, offer advice on ground protection, access routes, and any environmental issues that may need to be considered. Following this free, no obligation survey, on placement of order you will receive a Site Plan outlining the proposed solution, a detailed quote and a risk assessment. Your TPA field sales engineer will be available to answer any queries you may have prior to passing the project to our qualified operations team.
TPA’s strengths are clear through its People, Fleet, Product Base and Stock Levels. TPA’s 83km stock of aluminium panels is unrivalled within the UK and mainland Europe. TPA has invested in 27,000 sqm of terraplas plastic pitch cover systems further supporting its diverse product base.
