Applications for GRP Moulded Conductive / Translucent Grating include:

  • Platforms
  • Walkways
  • Bridges
  • Stair treads

Manufactured by a process of moulding, a combination of fibreglass rovings with
thermosetting resin forms an extremely strong, one piece, open mesh panel.

These two complimentary materials give GRP gratings excellent compressive and tensile strength. Gratings are
designed to withstand the harshest of industrial & commercial environments and require little or no maintenance.

Suitable for both interior or exterior use, a choice of resin type offers proven resistance to the effects of chemical
corrosion and UV light degradation along with fire retardant properties.

The innovative use of resin types in the manufacture of composites can lend special properties to the finished product.

Conductive top grating

Specially formulated with a carbon black surface to eliminate hazardous static electricity build up when electrically
grounded.  Available with all resin types and used in a variety of industries: electronics, petrochemical, munitions
manufacturing plants/arsenals, other spark-sensitive environments and workplaces zoned under DSEAR 2002. The
product is also employed where equipment could be damaged due to static electricity discharge. The grating has a
maximum electrical resistance of 26 kilo-ohms per 300mm.

Translucent grating

The use of clear resin types during manufacture offers a degree of translucence to a finished product and an overall
appealing aesthetic, which is not normally identified with an industrial grating. These gratings are worthy of
consideration when incorporating into architect designed spaces and have a pleasing tint of colour.

The relative light weight of the product makes transport, handling & installation far easier than metallic gratings.
Panels may be cut to size before delivery to site for immediate installation, or cut in-situ using diamond tipped tooling
and resealed using approved resin top coat.

Both these product types are available to order from the factory.
