FRP Grating

From a comprehensive viewpoint, China FRP grating has the absolute advantage. Although it may not compete metal grating in intensity, the anti-corrosion property of FRP grating cannot be compared. In terms of carrying capacity, it is far superior to wood cover and plastic cover. And it has more choices and patterns in design. In terms of application, FRP grating can be used in the operation platform or equipment platform in petroleum, chemical, electric power, sewage treatment, textile, pharmaceutical, brewing, marine operations, shipbuilding and other industries or stair tread, trench drain cover, bridge walkway, pool gate panels. It is well applied in flammable occasion, since it will not produce friction sparks, static response does not occur. You can see the occurrence of FRP grating in electric operation occasions too because of good non-conductive property. 

FRP Grating is another kind of popular grating made of different resins reinforced with fiberglass, by molded technology, which is strong enough to be used in kinds of operation platform, checking and repairing walkway, drilling platform, terrace, stair step,equipment walkway, trench cover, pedestrian overpass, filler support, deck of ship, ventilation fence, rail, corrosion resistance shelf bridge and tunnel construction with good corrosion resistance,etc.

Fibre Reinforced Plastic (FRP) grating is a moulded, one-piece fibreglass reinforced plastic grating, available in standard panels or fabricated into customized panels ready for installation.

The square pattern design and one-piece construction allows load to be transferred to the adjoining bars providing a superior load-carrying capacity. The load transfer assists in load distribution on the grating as well as on the support structure.

Smooth resin-rich vertical surfaces and tapered bars allow all debris to fall through, the 70% open area panels.

The high resin-to-glass ratio provides maximum corrosion resistance to a wide range of chemicals frequently encountered in many industries. Continuous glass-fibre strands in alternating layers thoroughly whetted with the appropriate resin provides excellent corrosion resistance.


Excellent Properties of FRP Grating
(1)Light weight and high strength: The density is about 1.8, a quarter of steel,two-thirds of aluminum. Specific strength is superior to ordinary carbon steel.Anti-creeping. Impact endurance
(2)Corrosion Resistance:No rust,Resistance to acid, alkali, organic dissolvent and other gas and liquid mixture.It has predominant advantages in anti- corrosion field.
(3)Anti-aging: More than 20 years effective service life under normal outdoor working condition.
(4)Safety: Flame-retardance. Oxygen index more than 32. Good performance of electric insulation. 10KV no voltage breakdown. No electric-magnetic behavior. No electric spark, effective anti-slipping.
(5)Excellent comprehensive economic benefits: Low cost in installment, little cost in maintenance. Overall economic benefits is 3 or 4 times better than carbon steel.
(6)Comfortable:Moderate flexibility reduce the workers' pressure on legs and waist.
(7)Attractive appearance &easy care: Alternative bright colors. Non-fading. Easy clean and self-cleaning appearance.

Molded grating process:
Molded grating is manufactured by laying continuous glass fibers in the mould in the direction of vertical and horizontal, and throughly wetted out with resin, layer by layer. When the weaving process is completed,the mould is heated to cure the panel. After curing, the panel is ejected from the mould. The standard panel would have meniscus (concave)top surface. Any process such as post applied grit could be bonded after as a secondary operation. This continuous process produces an integral, one piece panel, which offers excellent corrosion resistance as well as bi-directional strength.

Application of FRP Grating
FRP Grating are used for their high strength, corrosion resistance, light weight, long life and safety. All FRP grating is made to meet the highest international standards.

FRP Grating has many advantages over steel grating, not only for performance but also cost competitiveness. The wide range of gratings available can satisfy general industrial needs or high load requirements like forklift traffic.

Currently, our molded FRP gratings are used in: Chemical processing, food & beverage, marine, oil & gas, power, industry, buildings, construction, pharmaceutical, metals & mining, pulp & paper, recreation, telecommunications, shipping, transportation, water & waste treatment, architectural.
