The company certifies its GRP (Glass Fibre Reinforced Polyester) poles for overhead telecommunication lines, after successfully passing the tests supervised by Bureau Veritas and ENAC accredited laboratories.
The company BUPRE, S.L.specialising in Precast concrete high-strength and in GRP poles (Glass Fibre Reinforced Polyester), has obtained the Certificate of Compliance with Specification UNE 0072 for its range of Poles for Telecommunications overhead lines. This certification, issued by Bureau Veritas Inspection and Testing, with a validity until April 2030, has been granted after exhaustive tests according to the UNE 0072 Standard, including the production control of the GRP poles in the manufacturing plant of BUPRE SL located in Burgos.
BUPRE's GRP poles, designed for telecommunications installations, electrical wiring, lighting, video surveillance or WIFI antennas, are notable for their high strength and durabilityThis makes them the ideal solution for saline environments or adverse weather conditions without the need for maintenance. Their remarkable lightness makes them easy to transport and install, even in areas that are difficult to access. As a manufacturer, BUPRE offers a great versatility in terms of GRP poles design to suit the needs of each project. In addition, GRP poles have an optimal dielectric strength, low conductivity and good fire fighting qualities with a resistance: > to HB40 (UNE-EN ISO 60695), both in horizontal and vertical fire tests, thus improving the safety of electrical installations and at the same time its sustainable manufacturing is environmentally and health friendly.
Bureau Veritasthe world's leading independent provider of laboratory testing, inspection and certification and testing services, has verified the compliance of the UNE 0072confirming that BUPRE's GRP poles for overhead telecommunication lines comply with the most demanding standards set out in section "7.3 Pole testing and pole weights" with the following technical specifications:
POST HEIGHT 8 m nominal STRENGTH 250 daN / 8-FVA-250
POST HEIGHT 8 m nominal STRENGTH 400 daN / 8-FVB-400
POST HEIGHT 8 m Nominal STRENGTH 630 daN / 8-FVC-630
POST HEIGHT 10 m nominal STRENGTH 250 daN / 10-FVA-250
POST HEIGHT 10 m nominal STRENGTH 400 daN / 10-FVB-400
POST HEIGHT 10 m nominal STRENGTH 630 daN / 10-FVC-630
