One among the significant discoveries that have happened until the date is the invention of unsaturated polyester as well as vinyl ester resin in the material technology. These materials are greatly acceptable in technical sectors exclusively for the multitudinous usages. Mostly, the materials are used in aerospace, marine, constructional fields, infrastructure as well as the transportation system. The materials are also used to produce stronger materials and varied technical equipment. One such material is fibreglass. The installation of the fibreglass made products in industrial belts can easily increase the security or safety of the workplace.

FRP grating:

Composite grating usually offers stability plus strength to the structures. The grating made with Fibreglass is comparatively more efficient as compared to the grating structures done with other materials. These gratings usually comprise online trimming as well as fabrication facilities. This ensures that there’s relatively less wastage of materials. The bars that can bear immense load provide never-ending support to both ways. Such structures can endure or sustain harsh temperature. Some characteristics of FRP grating are as follows:

•    Corrosion resistance:
The grating structures made of Fibreglass have corrosion resistant properties. These materials never rot even under harsh weather conditions. The features of these grating structures never deteriorate even when they come in close contact with strong chemicals.

•    Slip resistance:

 
FRP grating has slip resistance properties that help the industrial workers from sudden trips, slips or falls. These grating are extremely safe for accessing even when they are placed or installed in the moisture filled areas. FRP grating reduces the possibilities of accidents to a great extent.

•    Non-conductive:
As per the studies, the FRP grating structures are the bad conductors of electricity and heat. There’s hardly any chance of getting electric shocks even if the fiberglass grating structure comes in contact with water. One can easily place these grating structures in electrical substations.

•    Low maintenance:
The non- corrosive, not- conductive and highly durable nature of FRP products makes them less likely to frequent maintenance. There’s no need of regular washing or painting after installing the FRP grating.

•    Affordable:
FRP grating is cost-effective. This light weighing product is easier to install and requires less labor to transport the product from one spot to the other. Installation of these FRP products provides one with great chances to save a large sum of money.

The fibreglass based pedestrian structures are also widely installed nowadays in industrial belts. It’s always better to select fibreglass products since these products come with a number of advantages. The handrails, stair nosing, and stair treads are also recommended since these products improve the safety quotient in the workplaces.
