Glass Reinforced Polymer (GRP) section types are perfectly suited to interior,
exterior and aggressive environments where industrial chemicals or acid/salt air
may quickly corrode metal systems.

Commonly incorporated into new build & refurbishment designs alike, they have shown proven in-service
performance for 50+ years.

A sample of the range of structural profiles are listed here. There are other types available, please contact us with
your enquiry for further information.  All are produced by the process of pultrusion using glass reinforcements and
thermosetting isophthalic polyester resins with an applied surface veil.

Profile sections are designed and manufactured to meet or exceed EN 13706 E23 or E17 quality.

All profiles are available in standard lengths of 6m with other cut lengths, resins or colours available (subject to
minimum order quantities).

Available in standard steel grey colour (or high visibility safety yellow to order), GRP pultrusions provide all the
advantages of light weight, high strength and durability, coupled with a corrosion resistant, non conductive, fire
retardant and virtually maintenance free life.

Through-colour construction and an optional extra-durable polyurethane surface coating will result in an enduring,
smart appearance that is highly cost effective when compared to stainless or galvanised steel/iron.

The relative light weight of the product makes transport, handling & installation far easier than metallic products.
Rails may be cut to size and partially assembled prior to delivery for immediate installation, or easily cut in-situ using
tungsten carbide tipped tooling and resealed using an approved resin top coat.

The resultant structures provide for worker safety in a wide variety of exposed locations in all industrial and
commercial environments e.g. water treatment works, marine & railway applications, manufacturing facilities,
walkways etc.

Profile Section Types:

Angle | Box | C-Section | Flat | I-Beam | Wide Flange Beam | Round Tube | Plank | Hand rail | Ladder Rung

Items with a tick represent profiles with rapid lead times. If your requirements are not met from these profiles,
we are able to source from more than one manufacturer, so please contact us for details of all other stocked and
non-stocked profiles.

Profiles are manufactured/tested in accordance with:

ISO9001:2008 | EN13706 E23 or E17 | EN 13501-1:2007

EN 13706 is a European standard valid for pultruded profiles for construction purposes which are defined according to the standard as "where the load-bearing characteristic is the major criterion of design and where the product is part of a load-bearing system". The standard specifies the minimum requirements for the quality and tolerances, as well as the strength and stiffness ratios of structural profile.
