Corrosion is a universal concern, causing significant economic losses and structural degradation in various sectors. Traditional materials like steel and concrete are highly susceptible to chemical attack, leading to weakening and eventual failure. However, FRP's unique properties make it a game-changer in combating this issue. The non-metallic nature of FRP ensures that it is not subject to electrochemical reactions, which are the root cause of corrosion in metals. Moreover, its chemical inertness allows it to withstand exposure to harsh environments, acidic or alkaline substances, and extreme temperatures without degrading.

The primary component of fiberglass floor grating is the fiberglass roving, which is essentially a bundle of continuous glass fibers. These fibers are soaked in a thermosetting resin, such as polyester, vinylester, or epoxy, which hardens when cured, forming a rigid and durable grid pattern. The open-grid design of the grating allows for the passage of light, air, and water, making it ideal for environments where drainage and visibility are crucial.

Pultruded fiberglass grating is made using premium grade isophthalic polyester, vinyl ester or phenolic resin systems with a synthetic surfacing veil, making it corrosion resistant, lightweight, and durable. Pultruded fiberglass has a grit surface for safety, and a greater strength to weight ration than molded fiberglass grating. A 35% / 65% resin to glass ratio provides greater strength and less corrosion resistance than molded fiberglass. This product is better suited for longer life spans.
