GRP Open Mesh Grating
What is GRP Grating?
GRP Open Mesh Grating is a high-quality, durable, and versatile flooring option that serves as an excellent alternative to steel mesh grating. Designed for a wide range of applications, it offers superior strength, corrosion resistance, and long-lasting performance. Whether for construction, rail, marine, offshore, industrial, or chemical industries, GRP grating is the ideal choice.
GRP Grating for Industrial Walkways
Our GRP Open Mesh Grating is specifically designed to provide safe access for pedestrians on industrial walkways, catwalks, and over channels. To enhance safety, our grating features an embedded grit finish. Unlike surface-applied grit that can chip or wear away, this design ensures lasting slip resistance. As a result, the grating maintains a firm grip underfoot, even in wet, icy, or greasy conditions. This makes it particularly suitable for outdoor environments, as well as wet or oily industrial settings.
Lightweight and Easy to Install
One of the key advantages of our GRP grating is its lightweight construction. In fact, Re-Grid GRP Open Mesh Grating weighs just one-third of an equivalent steel grating, making transportation and installation much easier. Additionally, thanks to its bi-directional strength, there is no need for extra end banding or additional support around pipe opes. This not only reduces material costs but also simplifies the installation process.
Furthermore, on-site fabrication is quick and straightforward. Since GRP grating maintains its corrosion resistance even after cutting, it can be easily shaped using standard hand power tools without compromising durability. Plus, the open mesh design allows for easy manual positioning, further streamlining the setup process.
Fire-Resistant and Compliant with Safety Standards
GRP grating also provides reliable fire resistance. The exact fire rating depends on the specific materials and additives used during manufacturing. However, our grating meets strict safety standards, achieving:
- Class 1 Fire Rating (BS476 Part 7, EN 13501, ASTM E84-19A)
- Flame Retardant Classification BFL S1 (EN 13501)
This ensures that our GRP grating is a safe and dependable option for industries that require fire-resistant materials.
