About Dura Composites

Dura Composites is a four‑time winner of the King’s Award for Enterprise, recognised for innovation and problem-solving in infrastructure. Our purpose is to deliver the world’s lowest‑carbon walkway systems, helping to preserve our planet. With 21 patents and 139 design registrations, we combine circular design, long product lifecycles, and end-of-life repurposing/recycling to reduce waste, lower carbon and deliver durable, future‑ready infrastructure.

With our new end-of-life recycling, we turn your unwanted GRP into new products.

At Dura, we combine design, technology, and manufacturing innovations to offer a distinctive range of solutions. Our recyclable d² product range includes walkway grating, trench covers, structural profiles, handrailing, access structures, and station platforms.

These products feature innovative weight-reducing designs that minimise on-site logistics requirements and reduce environmental impact thanks to their lower embodied carbon and recyclability. We’re the only company able to provide the option to repurpose your product at the end of its use, making us the greenest choice.
